lsat 10 (1。1) questions

4[face=Georgia]. Data form satellite photographs of the tropical rain forest in Melonia show that last year the deforestation rate of this environmentally sensitive zone was significantly lower than in previous years. The Melonian government, which spent millions of dollars last year to enforce laws against burning and cutting of the forest, is claiming that the satellite data indicate that its increased efforts to halt the destruction are proving effective.

Which one of the following, if true, most seriously undermines the government’s claim?

(A) Landowner opposition to the government’s antideforestation efforts grew more violent last year in response to the increased enforcement.

(B) Rainfall during the usually dry 6-month annual burning season was abnormally heavy last year.

(C) Government agents had to issue fines totaling over 59 million to 3,500violators of burning-and-cutting regulations.

(D) The inaccessibility of much of the rain forest has made it impossible to confirm the satellite data by direct observation from the field.

(E) Much of the money that was designated last year for forest preservation has been spent on research and not on enforcement.


答案是B,但是D这个答案的错误是否是因为它评价了原文的客观事实。请指点


7. Waste management companies, which collect waste for disposal in landfills and incineration plants, report that disposable plastics make up an ever-increasing percentage of the waste they handle. It is clear that attempts to decrease the amount of plastic that people throw away in the garbage are failing.

Which one of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument?

(A) Because plastics create harmful pollutants when burned, an increasing percentage of the plastics handled by waste management companies are being disposed of in landfills.

(B) Although many plastics are recyclable, most of the plastics disposed of by waste management companies are not.

(C) People are more likely to save and reuse plastic containers than containers made of heavier materials like glass or metal.

(D) An increasing proportion of the paper, glass, and metal cans that waste management companies used to handle is now being recycled.

(E) While the percentage of products using plastic packaging is increasing, the total amount of plastic being manufactured has remained unchanged.

这个题目的答案选D让我有些想不通。



11. Recently discovered fossil evidence casts doubt on the evolutionary theory that dinosaurs are more closely related to reptiles than to other classes of animals. Fossils show that some dinosaurs had hollow bones-a feature found today only in warm-blooded creatures, such as birds, that have a high metabolic rate. Dinosaurs had well-developed senses of sight and hearing, which is not true of present-day cold-blooded creatures like reptiles. The highly arched mouth roof of some dinosaurs would have permitted them to breathe while eating, as fast-breathing animals, such as birds, need to do. Today, all fast-breathing animals are warm-blooded. Finally, fossils reveal that many dinosaurs had a pattern of growth typical of warm-blooded animals.

The argument in the passage proceeds by

(A) attempting to justify one position by demonstrating that an opposing position is based on erroneous information

(B) establishing a general principle that it then uses to draw a conclusion about a particular case

(C) dismissing a claim made about the present on the basis of historical evidence

(D) assuming that if all members of a category have a certain property then all things with that property belong to the category

(E) presenting evidence that a past phenomenon is more similar to one rather than the other of two present-day phenomena

这个题目的答案是E请解释一下。[/face]

第四题d选项涉及了题外的内容,需要加入其他前提条件,而这是gmat不允许的。

4、题目中的claim是由data from satalite得到的,要weaken结论有2种办法:a、对data进行削弱;2、切断data和claim的关系(比如B,用他因来weaken).而D只是说data from satalite cannot be confirmed by direct observation, 对 data from sataliite 没有起到削弱,所以D错。

7、这实际上是个数学问题,D从反面暗示出:因为别的waste减少了从而导致plastics 的所占的比重增加了,可能实际在数量上没有变,甚至下降了,因此undermine  the conclusion.

11、因为题目就是在拿dinosaurs of past和bird and reptile of today作比较,但更倾向于bird,所以答案就是E了.


Hope it will be helpful!
