GWD-8-Q19: GWD-2-12
Which of the following most logically completes the passage?
Concerned about financial well-being of its elderly citizens, the government of Runagia decided two years ago to increase by 20 percent the government-provided pension paid to all Runagians over 65. Inflation in the intervening period has been negligible, and the increase has been duly received by all eligible Runagians. Nevertheless, many of them are no better off financially than they were before the increase, in large part because ________.
A.   They rely entirely on the government pension for their income
B.   Runagian banks are so inefficient that it can take up to three weeks to cash a pension check
C.   They buy goods whose prices tend to rise especially fast in times of inflation
D.   The pension was increased when the number of elderly Runagians below the poverty level reached an all-time high
E.   In Runagia children typically supplement the income of elderly parents, but only by enough to provide them with a comfortable living

答案给的是E

GWD-24-Q 22:
Often patients with ankle fractures that are stable, and thus do not require surgery, are given follow-up x-rays because their orthopedists are concerned about possibly having misjudged the stability of the fracture. When a number of follow-up x-rays were reviewed, however, all the fractures that had initially been judged stable were found to have healed correctly. Therefore, it is a waste of money to order follow-up
x-rays of ankle fracture initially judged stable.

Which of the following, if true, most strengthens the argument?

A.   Doctors who are general practitioners rather than orthopedists are less likely than orthopedists to judge the stability of an ankle fracture correctly.
B.   Many ankle injuries for which an initial x-ray is ordered are revealed by the x-ray not to involve any fracture of the ankle.
C.   X-rays of patients of many different orthopedists working in several hospitals were reviewed.
D.   The healing of ankle fractures that have been surgically repaired is always checked by means of a follow-up x-ray.
E.   Orthopedists routinely order follow-up x-rays for fractures of bone other than ankle bones.
答案给的是C

请各位大侠指点一下

第一道题目的crack point是老人得到的总数不变，是由孩子给的和政府给的，政府给的多了，孩子给的就会少（supplement the income of elderly parents, but only by enough to provide them with a comfortable living
）
第二道是很特殊的一种类型的题目，是generalize sample ，别看题目很绕，其实考点相当简单，就是说这个样本是来自很多地方的，所以很可靠。达到support的目的。
都是出自天山我也对天山的题目很痛恨相当的bug

第一道题还是有点困惑，明白的同学能再说详细一点吗？supplement the income of elderly parents, but only by enough to provide them with a comfortable living这句话不是很明白什么意思。

非常感谢北落狮门的回答,解释的很透彻梦想守护者,我对第一道题的理解是老人的收入主要来自于子女和政府的补贴,当政府提高补贴时,子女就会减少他们对父母的支出,因为他们认为足够父母过一个comfortable living 就行,所以老人的经济状况没有很大的改变.呵呵,不知道解释的对不对

第一题和以前一个题特别像，那时候的答案说的是他们要买的东西涨价涨的厉害。。

而这个题的B之所以不对是说他们要买的东西在通胀的时候会涨得厉害，但是题里已经说了通胀的因素是可以忽略的，所以B在这个题里不是正确选项对吗？

E说子女but only by enough to provide them with a comfortable living，政府给的多了，孩子给的就会少了，所以状况未得改善。
