大全-20-3.   Last year in the United States, women who ran for state and national offices were about as likely to win as men. However, only about fifteen percent of the candidates for these offices were women. Therefore, the reason there are so few women who win elections for these offices is not that women have difficulty winning elections but that so few women want to run.
Which of the following, if true, most seriously undermines the conclusion given?
(A) Last year the proportion of women incumbents who won reelection was smaller than the proportion of men incumbents who won reelection.
(B) Few women who run for state and national offices run against other women.
(C) Most women who have no strong desire to be politicians never run for state and national offices.
(D) The proportion of people holding local offices who are women is smaller than the proportion of people holding state and national offices who are women.
(E) Many more women than men who want to run for state and national offices do not because they cannot get adequate funding for their campaigns.
正确答案E，我不明白funding和题干有啥关系。。。

大全-20-12.   An advertisement designed to convince readers of the great durability of automobiles manufactured by the Deluxe Motor Car Company cites as evidence the fact that over half of all automobiles built by the company since 1970 are still on the road today, compared to no more than a third for any other manufacturer.
Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the advertisement’s argument?
(A) After taking inflation into account, a new Deluxe automobile costs only slightly more than a new model did in 1970.
(B) The number of automobiles built by Deluxe each year has not increased sharply since 1970.
(C) Owners of Deluxe automobiles typically keep their cars well maintained.
(D) Since 1970, Deluxe has made fewer changes in the automobiles it manufactures than other car companies have made in their automobiles.
(E) Deluxe automobiles have been selling at relatively stable prices in recent years.
正确答案是B，我选的是D

大全-20-16.   Which of the following, if true, is the most logical completion of the argument below?
The tax system of the Republic of Grootland encourages borrowing by granting its taxpayers tax relief for interest paid on loans. The system also discourages saving by taxing any interest earned on savings. Nevertheless, it is clear that Grootland’s tax system does not consistently favor borrowing over saving, for if it did, there would be no______
(A) tax relief in Grootland for those portions of a taxpayer’s income, if any, that are set aside to increase that taxpayer’s total savings
(B) tax relief in Grootland for the processing fees that taxpayers pay to lending institutions when obtaining certain kinds of loans
(C) tax relief in Grootland for interest that taxpayers are charged on the unpaid balance in credit card accounts
(D) taxes due in Grootland on the cash value of gifts received by taxpayers from banks trying to encourage people to open savings accounts
(E) taxes due in Grootland on the amount that a taxpayer has invested in interest-bearing savings accounts
答案是A，我觉得tax relief这种主观的东西怎么能用there be表达呢。。。而且这和题干里的no consistently favor有什么关系？请赐教！

第一题：
如果女的决定参加竞选，那么获胜的几率和男的一样大，但是由于更难获得财政支持，所以很多女的根本无法参加竞选，所以女的还是比男的更难获胜。
第二题：
如果所有的公司都以固定的产量生产、销售汽车，那么市场的占有率应该是不变的。但是如果某公司的销量显著增加，那么高的饱和率并不一定是因为汽车能用得更久，而是因为新车卖的很多。不知道说明白了没有。

第三题：
忙着下班，等回家再给你解答吧。。。

谢谢楼上的同志！你下班了吗~？O(∩_∩)O~
对于第一题，答案只是说（do not because）不是因为xxx，但并没有说明是因为funds的问题才让women处于劣势，这里应该不是双重否定表肯定吧。。。
第二题，你说的我也想到了，但是我认为那个广告里说half of all automobiles should refer to proportion，这和绝对的数量有直接关系吗？

lonelyorchid · 发表于 2011-4-12 00:19:07

还真没注意原文说的是do not because...你确定题目没有问题?
第二题,确实跟比例有关系,但是如果大幅度增产,那么新车的比例就会增加,旧车的比例就会减少,这样即便旧车的duration很差,只要能卖出足够的新车,proportion也会大于其他品牌.
第三题的逻辑有些混乱：
政府对放贷的利息收入免税，但是对存款的利息收入征税.(鼓励放贷，去不鼓励存款).每闹明白A里说的，纳税者用于增加存款的部分收入讲不享受免税政策.增加存款和借钱有啥关系呢？你说说看，是不是我哪里想漏了？

1) E says women want to run. But they cannot since they do not have deep pocket to support their political ambition. So E weakens the conclusion that "so few women want to run."

第三题太不好了呀。抽象一下逻辑

1、男女竞选难度一样
2、男的成功比女的多
=>
女的成功率不低，而是不愿竞选。

反驳：女的比男的更喜欢参加竞选，不是因为女的没钱。

如果要说反驳的话，只能是答案直接写了女的更喜欢参加竞选。。。

关于第三题，我觉得tax relief是政府说的算的，政府不给relief肯定是有他不得已的原因，那是什么原因呢？难道是政府不能同时既鼓励贷款又鼓励存款吗？
