题1 GWD7-Q27: A significant number of complex repair jobs carried out by Ace Repairs have to be reworked under the company’s warranty(担保书). The reworked jobs are invariably satisfactory. When initial repairs are inadequate, therefore, it is not because the mechanics lack competence; rather, there is clearly a level of focused concentration that complex repairs require that is elicited more reliably by rework jobs than by first-time jobs. The argument above assumes which of the following? A. There is no systematic difference in membership between the group of mechanics who do first-time jobs and the group of those who do rework jobs. B. There is no company that successfully competes with Ace Repairs for complex repair jobs. C. Ace Repairs’ warranty is good on first-time jobs but does not cover rework jobs. D. Ace Repairs does not in any way penalize mechanics who have worked on complex repair jobs that later had to be reworked. E. There is no category of repair jobs in which Ace Repairs invariably carries out first-time jobs satisfactorily. 谁好心帮忙把高亮部分翻译一下下 题二 23. (28303-!-item-!-188;#058&003943) A product that represents a clear technological advance over competing products can generally command a high price. Because technological advances tend to be quickly surpassed and companies want to make large profits while they still can, many companies charge the maximum possible price for such a product. But large profits on the new product will give competitors a strong incentive to quickly match the new product's capabilities. Consequently, the strategy to maximize overall profit from a new product is to charge less than the greatest possible price. In the argument above, the two portions in boldface play which of the following roles? (A) The first is a consideration that has been raised to argue that a certain strategy is counterproductive; the second presents that strategy. (B) The first is a consideration raised to support the strategy that the argument recommends; the second presents that strategy. (C) The first is a consideration raised to explain the appeal of a certain strategy; the second presents that strategy. (D) The first is an assumption, rejected by the argument, that has been used to justify a course of action; the second presents that course of action. (E) The first is a consideration that has been used to justify pursuing a goal that the argument rejects; the second presents a course of action that has been adopted in pursuit of that goal. 答案是C,我不明 a certain strategy 是指charge the maximum possible price for such a product 但是 the second 是指charge less than the greatest possible price. 而C选项 两个strategy 指的是相同的啊 题三 73. There is no reason why the work of scientists has to be officially confirmed before being published. There is a system in place for the confirmation or disconfirmation of scientific findings, namely, the replication of results by other scientists. Poor scientific work on the part of any one scientists, which can include anything from careless reporting practices to fraud, is not harmful. It will be exposed and rendered harmless when other scientists conduct experiments and obtain disconfirmatory results. Which one of the following, if true, would weaken the argument? (A) Scientific experiments can go unchallenged for many years before they are replicated. (B) Most scientists work in universities, where their work is submitted to peer review before publication. (C) Most scientists are under pressure to make their work accessible to the scrutiny of replication. (D) In scientific experiments, careless reporting is more common than fraud. (E) Most scientists work as part of a team rather than alone. 答案C这题读不懂
