276. The people who are least likely to be audited by the International Revenue Service this year are those who have been audited since 1985 and who were found to have made no mistakes in filing their returns during that audit.
Of the following people, who is MOST likely to be audited by the IRS?
正确答案：A person who was late audited in 1984, and had no mistakes uncovered by the IRS during that audit.
我的选项：A person whose spouse was convicted of tax fraud in 1987, who was then audited and found to have made no mistakes.
原题中最不可能（LEAST）被audit的，是那些自1985年以来被audit过，且也没犯过错误的人。
反之，最可能（MOST）被audit的，是那些1985年以来没有被audit，或犯过错误的人。
正确答案所提到的人：1985年以来没有被audit（符合MOST要求），没犯过错误（不符合MOST要求）
我选项中提到的人：1985年以来有过audit（不符合MOST要求），犯过错误（符合MOST要求）。
我觉得这俩被audit的可能性应该差不多才对……。

277. James's grade point average puts him in the top 3rd of the graduating class of college A. Nestor is in the top 10th of the same class. Elizabeth has the same grade point average as Nestor. Nancy has a lower grade point average than Elizabeth.
If the information above is true, which of the following must also be true?
正确答案：Nestor has a higher grade point average than Nancy.
我的选项：James has a higher grade point average than Nancy.
从题目中所得到的信息，可以判断出三个人的成绩关系：Nestor=Elizabeth>Nancy.
虽然不知道James和Nestor孰高孰低，但James排在班级前3位。
按照最极端的设想，James比Nestor差，那么班级前3便是Nestor, Elizabeth, James三人，Nancy最多只能排第4位。
所以我觉得，尽管正确答案更直接，但自己的选项也没错……况且James已经确认了高名次。

278. Whenever a major airplane accident occurs, there is a dramatic increase in the number of airplane mishaps reported, a phenomenon that may last for as long as a few months after the accident. Airline officials assert that the publicity given the gruesomeness of major airplane accidents focuses media attention on the airline industry and the increase in the number of reported accidents, not by an increase in the number of accidents.
Which of the following, if true, would most seriously weaken the assertions of the airline officials?
正确答案：Airline accidents tend to occur far more often during certain peak travel months.
我的选项：Airplane accidents receive coverage by news sources only when the news sources find it advantageous to do so.
我不太理解，正确答案为何能最有力地削弱航空公司的言论？

第一题额要好好理解两个被audi的标准 1. 1985 以后没被audi
2 1985以后被audi 有了污点
正确答案满足了第一条你选的答案首先说的是配偶有污点，这怎么处理文章没说；其次他自己没污点，进一步说明不用被audi

第二题只能理解成分数一样的人算在同一排名这题本身简单没什么多说的

第三题题目中的论点是集中的事故报道是因为媒体集中报道了，而并非事故本身增多了。答案就是说明事故本身就是多了：在peak season，有集中的事故出现，这些并不是因为媒体报道的多。
你选的答案恰恰支持了观点，就是媒体会主观臆断的报道
