One of the limiting factors in human physical performance is the amount of oxygen that is absorbed by the muscles from the bloodstream. Accordingly, entrepreneurs have begun selling at gymnasiums and health clubs bottles of drinking water, labeled “SuperOXY,” that has extra oxygen dissolved in the water. Such water would be useless in improving physical performance, however, since the amount of oxygen in the blood of someone who is exercising is already more than the muscle cells can absorb.
Which of the following, if true, would serve the same function in the argument as the statement in boldface?
A. world-class athletes turn in record performances without such water
B. frequent physical exercise increases the body’s ability to take in and use oxygen
C. the only way to get oxygen into the bloodstream so that it can be absorbed by the muscles is through the lungs
D. lack of oxygen is not the only factor limiting human physical performance
E. the water lost in exercising can be replaced with ordinary tap water
prep语法笔记解释：
结论句是：“Such water would be useless in improving physical performance”
这个题目我们通过读问题和原文得知，黑体字部分是原文因果推理模式的前提，也就是逻辑上的因，而问题想让我们找到一个和这个前提具有同样功能的句子，其实就是给原来结论再找到一个“因”，也就是能说明结论选项。比较像果因的CQ1：说明结果问题
我的疑问：
前提是：the amount of oxygen in the blood of someone who is exercising is already more than the muscle cells can absorb
结论是：Such water would be useless in improving physical performance
前提是因，发生在前；结论是果，发生在后。
问：什么不是因果推理模式？
考虑到这道题的问法，答案不属于因果推理中的CQ1或CQ2。虽说像果因的CQ2他因，但是原文应该是因果推理！
Journalist: Every election year at this time the state government releases the financial disclosures that potential candidates must make in order to be eligible to run for office. Among those making the required financial disclosure this year is a prominent local businessman, Arnold Bergeron. There has often been talk in the past of Mr. Bergeron's running for governor, not least from Mr. Bergeron himself. This year it is likely he finally will, since those who have discounted the possibility of a Bergeron candidacy have always pointed to the necessity of making financial disclosure as the main obstacle to such a candidacy.
In the journalist's argument, the two boldfaced portions play which of the following roles?
A. The first provides information without which the argument lacks force; the second states the main conclusion of the argument.
B. The first provides information without which the argument lacks force; the second states an intermediate conclusion that is used to support a further conclusion.
C. The first describes a practice that the journalist seeks to defend; the second cites a likely consequence of this practice.
D. The first states evidence bearing against the main conclusion of the argument; the second states that conclusion.
E. Each provides evidence in support of an intermediate conclusion that supports a further conclusion stated in the argument.
