2. GWD25-Q2.

In two months, the legal minimum wage in the country of Kirlandia will increase from five Kirlandic dollars(KD5.00) Per hour to KD5.50 per hour. Opponents of this increase have argued that the resulting rise in wages will drive the inflation rate up. In fact its impact on wages will probably be negligible, since only a very small proportion of all Kirfandic workers are currently receiving less than KD5.50 per hour.

Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument?

A.Most people in Kirlandia who are currently earning the minimum wage havebeen employed at their current jobs for less than a year.

B.Some firms in Kirlandia have paid workers considerably less than KD5.00per hour, in violation of Kirlandic employment regulations.

C.Many businesses hire trainees at or near the minimum wage but mustreward trained workers by keeping their paylevels above the pay levelof trainees.

D.The greatest growth in Kirlandia’s economy in recent years has been in those sectors where workers earn wages that tend to be much higherthan the minimum wage.

E.The current minimum wage is insufficient for a worker holding only one job to earn enough to support a family,even when working full time at that job.

答案是C 我就只觉得B C两个好像跟题目有点关系但又想不出是什么关系最后猜了个B 猜错了……

22. GWD25-Q22.
Springfield Fire Commissioner: the vast majority of false fire alarms are prank calls made anonymously from fire alarm boxes on street corners. Since virtually everyone has access to a private telephone, these alarm boxes have outlived their usefulness. Therefore, we propose to remove the boxes. Removing the boxes will reduce the number of prank calls without hampering people’s ability to report a fire.
Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the claim that the proposal, if carried out, will have the announced effect?

A.   The fire department traces all alarm calls made from private telephones and records where they came from.
B.   Maintaining the fire alarm boxes costs Springfield approximately five million dollars annually.
C.   A telephone call can provide the fire department with more information about the nature and size of a fire than can an alarm placed from an alarm box.
D.   Responding to false alarms significantly reduces the fire department’s capacity for responding to fires.
E.   On any given day, a significant percentage of the public telephones in Springfield are out of service.

还有一道这题我毫不犹豫地选了D 答案竟然是C 要是C可以选的话 A也可以选了啊望指教！！

30. GWD25-Q30.
Museums that house Renaissance oil paintings typically store them in environments that are carefully kept within narrow margins of temperature and humidity to inhibit any deterioration. Laboratory tests have shown that the kind of oil paint used in these paintings actually adjusts to climatic changes quite well. If, as some museum directors believe, paint is the most sensitive substance in these works, then by relaxing the standards for temperature and humidity control, museums can reduce energy costs without risking damage to these paintings. Museums would be rash to relax those standards, however, since results of preliminary tests indicate that gesso, a compound routinely used by Renaissance artists to help paint adhere to the canvas, is unable to withstand significant variations in humidity.
In the argument above, the two portions in boldface play which of the following roles?
A.   The first is an objection that has been raised against the position taken by the argument; the second is the position taken by the argument.
B.   The first is the position taken by the argument; the second is the position that the argument calls into question.
C.   The first is a judgment that has been offered in support of the position that the argument calls into question; the second is a circumstance on which that judgment is, in part based.
D.   The first is a judgment that has been offered in support of the position that the argument calls into question; the second is that position.
E.   The first is a claim that the argument calls into question; the second is the position taken by the argument.

C对. 因为把公司里面低收入的人工资涨上去后, 上面的人也要相应的提工资.就造成了更多的人工资都上涨.从而会引发通涨.
