13. In 1712 the government of Country Y appointed a censor to prohibit the publication of any book critical of Country Y’s government; all new books legally published in the country after 1712 were approved by a censor. Under the first censor, one half of the book manuscripts submitted to the censor were not approved for publication. Under the next censor, only one quarter of the book manuscripts submitted were not approved, but the number of book manuscripts that were approved was the same under both censors.
If the statements in the passage are true, which one of the following can be properly concluded from them?

A.More books critical of Country Y’s governments were published before the appointment of the first censor than after it.
B.The first censor and the second censor prohibited the publication of the same number of book manuscripts.
C.More book manuscripts were submitted for approval to the first censor than to the second.
D.The second censor allowed some book manuscripts to the published that the first censor would have considered critical of Country Y’s government.
E.The number of writers who wrote unpublished manuscripts was greater under the first censor than under the second.

参考思路：答案C

是一道计算题。关键还是列出公式。
the number of book manuscripts that were approved was the same under both censors.
Numbers of the first censor checked x (1-50%) = Numbers of the second censor x (1-25%)
我看法是文中说be approved 才出版，那么第一次出版1/2 a，第二次3/4b,然后因为 the number of book manuscripts that were approved was the same under both censors.我理解是1/2a=3/4b,那么就应该选A啊！答案把这句话理解成a=b了啊！

C是正确的, 1/2 first = 3/4 second, first = 3/2 second..., book manuscripts submitted for approval意思应该是拿去送检的书卷吧.
A在文中没有提起
