Question 12:

Which of the following most logically completes the passage?

Concerned about financial well-being of its elderly citizens, the government of Runagia

decided two years ago to increase by 20 percent the government-provided pension

paid to all Runagians over 65. Inflation in the intervening period has been negligible,

and the increase has been duly received by all eligible Runagians. Nevertheless,

many of them are no better off financially than they were before the increase, in large

part because ________.

A. They rely entirely on the government pension for their income

B. Runagian banks are so inefficient that it can take up to three weeks to cash a

pension check

C. They buy goods whose prices tend to rise especially fast in times of inflation

D. The pension was increased when the number of elderly Runagians below the

poverty level reached an all-time high

E. In Runagia children typically supplement the income of elderly parents, but

only by enough to provide them with a comfortable living

请教各位,该题的答案,我选了C因为,虽然前提提到通货膨胀率可以忽略,但C中的商品价格超过通货膨胀率好几陪则不能忽略.

Q21:

Environmental organizations want to preserve the land surrounding the Wilgrinn Wilderness Area from residential development. They plan to do this by purchasing that land from the farmers who own it. That plan is ill-conceived: if the farmers did sell their land, they would sell it to the highest bidder, and developers would outbid any other bidders. On the other hand, these farmers will never actually sell any of the land, provided that farming it remains viable. But farming will not remain viable if the farms are left unmodernized, and most of the farmers lack the financial resources modernization requires. And that is exactly why a more sensible preservation strategy would be to assist the farmers to modernize their farms to the extent needed to maintain viability.

In the argument as a whole, the two boldface proportions play which of the following roles?

The first presents a goal that the argument rejects as ill-conceived; the second is evidence that is presented as grounds for that rejection.

The first presents a goal that the argument concludes cannot be attained; the second is a reason offered in support of that conclusion.

The first presents a goal that the argument concludes can be attained; the second is a judgment disputing that conclusion.

The first presents a goal, strategies for achieving which are being evaluated in the argument; the second is a judgment providing a basis for the argument’s advocacy of a particular strategy.

The first presents a goal that the argument endorses; the second presents a situation that the argument contends must be changed if that goal is to be met in the foreseeable future.

该题我选的答案是A,我在A,E之间不能确定.
