Background: Take visceral emotion for examplePremise: always situation that is healthy to try to express emotion

Conclusion: always situation that is healthy to try to express anger.assumption?

Visceral emotion--angerB. correct (架桥求联系)

[逻辑链]

1. prediction of slower economic growth—decline in the value of the dollar

BUT government deficit must be decreased to prevent this happening.

Weaken—E

(D E不是关于prevent 另外提出的未知条件，

conclusion：if it had not been for huge budget deficit,

the prediction will not have effect. )

2. Both required simultaneously

competitive ability is—A

3. top managers use intuition more than middle or lower level managers

So, intuition is more effective than reasoning

assumption—C

（第二次错了！ E 题目理解，

top managers prefer intution to reasoning than middle managers 推出 more effective）

4. asthma will occur if molecules are activated

unnecessarilyweaken—D

Psychiatrist: Take any visceral emotion you care to
consider. There are always situations in which it
is healthy to try to express that emotion. So,
there are always situations in which it is
healthy to try to express one’s anger.
The conclusion of the argument follows logically if
which one of the following is assumed?
其实这种题目不难，但是我就是怕不知道为嘛可能单词背少了
Logic：visceral emotion ——situation in which it is healthy to try to express that emotion
So anger—— healthy try to express
Take a bridge——anger is a visceral emotion

The recent decline in the value of the dollar was triggered by a prediction of slower economic growth in the coming year.  But that prediction would not have adversely affected the dollar had it not been for the government's huge budget deficit, which must therefore be decreased to prevent future currency declines.
Which of the following, if true, would most seriously weaken the conclusion about how to prevent future currency declines?
logic: prediction of SEG causes decline of the money
But if sec not be the budget deficit , will not affect dollar
问weaken
仔细看了一下，是相关因果问题
说一个缓慢的经济增长的预言使得美元贬值，但是这个其实不是导致贬值的原因，原因是因为政府财政赤字了，所以真正导致美元贬值的是财政赤字。
也就是其实就是预言导致美元贬值，要削弱财政赤字喝美元贬值的相关性，加大预言的相关性

(A) The government has made little attempt to reduce the budget deficit.——irrelevant
(B) The budget deficit has not caused a slowdown in economic growth.——无关比较
(C) The value of the dollar declined several times in the year prior to the recent prediction of slower economic growth.——support
(D) Before there was a large budget deficit, predictions of slower economic growth frequently caused declines in the dollar's value.——bingo！
(E) When there is a large budget deficit, other events in addition to predictions of slower economic growth sometimes trigger declines in currency value.——irrelevant，这个鱼和熊掌不能兼得，这个选项真是墙头草

Neither a rising standard of living nor balanced trade, by itself, establishes a country's ability to compete in the international marketplace.  Both are required simultaneously since standards of living can rise because of growing trade deficits and trade can be balanced by means of a decline in a country's standard of living.
If the facts stated in the passage above are true, a proper test of a country's ability to be competitive is its ability to
logic：rising standard of living and balanced trade cannot be separate
SL can rise ——trade deficits
Trade balance ——decline of the SL
问infer trade可以通过down SL来平衡up SL

(A) balance its trade while its standard of living rises——bingo!
(B) balance its trade while its standard of living falls——反了
(C) increase trade deficits while its standard of living rises——反了
(D) decrease trade deficits while its standard of living falls——反了
(E) keep its standard of living constant while trade deficits rise——无关

Traditionally, decision-making by managers that is reasoned step-by-step has been considered preferable to intuitive decision-making.  However, a recent study found that top managers used intuition significantly more than did most middle- or lower-level managers.  This confirms the alternative view that intuition is actually more effective than careful, methodical reasoning.
The conclusion above is based on which of the following assumptions?
logic： SYS decision is better than intuitive decision-making
But top always intuitive decision-making
So intuitive decision-making is better
Assumption

(A) Methodical, step-by-step reasoning is inappropriate for making many real-life management decisions.——relevant
(B) Top managers have the ability to use either intuitive reasoning or methodical, step-by-step reasoning in making decisions.——irrelevant
(C) The decisions made by middle- and lower-level managers can be made as easily by using methodical reasoning as by using intuitive reasoning.——irrelevant
(D) Top managers use intuitive reasoning in making the majority of their decisions.——irrelevant
(E) Top managers are more effective at decision-making than middle- or lower-level managers.——bingo!

Certain messenger molecules fight damage to the lungs from noxious air by telling the muscle cells encircling the lungs' airways to contract.  This partially seals off the lungs.  An asthma attack occurs when the messenger molecules are activated unnecessarily, in response to harmless things like pollen or household dust.
Which of the following, if true, points to the most serious flaw of a plan to develop a medication that would prevent asthma attacks by blocking receipt of any messages sent by the messenger molecules referred to above?
这个一开始没看懂啊没看懂！
Logic： MM fight 会感染 lung,damage lungs
当MM active unnecessary的时候
就会asthma
问如果我们为了治疗这个病，要发明一种药把这个messeager堵起来，会肿么样
问方案的负评价。1，方案可行性2，方案正确性，3，方案副作用
肯定是这个方式，注意“any”的绝对性，的副作用
(A) Researchers do not yet know how the body produces the messenger molecules that trigger asthma attacks.——irrelevant
(B) Researchers do not yet know what makes one person's messenger molecules more easily activated than another's.——irrelevant
(C) Such a medication would not become available for several years, because of long lead times in both development and manufacture.——irrelevant
(D) Such a medication would be unable to distinguish between messages triggered by pollen and household dust and messages triggered by noxious air.——bingo!
(E) Such a medication would be a preventative only and would be unable to alleviate an asthma attack once it had started.——irrelevant
