????????迷惑

1 Which of the following, if true, most logically completes the passage?

 

A recent poll found that over 80 percent of the residents of Nalmed Province favored a massive expansion of the commuter rail system as a means of significantly easing congestion on the province’s highways and were willing to help pay for the expansion through an increase in their taxes.  Nevertheless, the poll results indicate that expansion of the rail system, if successfully completed, would be unlikely to achieve its goal of easing congestion, because __A_____.

 

  1. most people in favor of expanding the rail system reported less congestion during their highway commute as the primary benefit they would experience

  2. of the less than 20 percent of residents not counted as favoring the expansion, about half claimed to have no opinion one way or the other

  3. the twice-daily periods of peak congestion caused by people commuting in cars have grown from about an hour each to almost two and a half hours each in the past 20 years

  4. expanding the commuter rail system will require the construction of dozens of miles of new railbed

  5. the proposed expansion to the commuter rail system will make it possible for some people who both live and work at suburban locations to commute by rail

问题:关于A的翻译,为什么还没建成就享受到benefit了呢?

 

2 Press Secretary:  Our critics claim that the President’s recent highway project cancellations demonstrate a vindictive desire to punish legislative districts controlled by opposition parties.  They offer as evidence the fact that 90 percent of the projects canceled were in such districts.  But all of the canceled projects had been identified as wasteful in a report written by respected nonpartisan auditors.  So the President’s choice was clearly motivated by sound budgetary policy, not partisan politics.

 

Which of the following is an assumption on which the press secretary’s argument depends? B

 

  1. Canceling highway projects was not the only way for the President to punish legislative districts controlled by opposition parties.

  2. The scheduled highway projects identified as wasteful in the report were not mostly projects in districts controlled by the President’s party.

  3. The number of projects canceled was a significant proportion of all the highway projects that were to be undertaken by the government in the near future.

  4. The highway projects canceled in districts controlled by the President’s party were not generally more expensive than the projects canceled in districts controlled by opposition parties.

  5. Reports by nonpartisan auditors are not generally regarded by the opposition parties as a source of objective assessments of government projects.

很迷惑,代词很乱,求大侠指教

most
people in favor of expanding the rail system reported less congestion
during their highway commute as the primary benefit they would
experience.
would 简单看就是过去的推测「可能会」,不是已经的意思

第二题如果是代词有问题:by "opposition parties" =  "They" offer
    

总理新闻秘书:我们的批评家宣称:总统最近取消了一些高速高路的专案,代表对惩罚支持反对党的地区。反对党认为90%的被取消专案都是在这些地区(可作为证据支持上一句)。但是所有被取消的专案都已经是被受尊敬的非政党稽核者认定浪费的。

The
scheduled highway projects identified as wasteful in the report were
not mostly projects in districts controlled by the President's party.

此题考阅读,90%在敌方,就是我方的所占的案件(被取消)不多

第1题A选项:正因为大多数人都把修好铁路后公路的通畅视为最大的福利,也就是说他们平时都选择公路交通,因此铁路扩建并不能分流公路的人流。
