最近总结OG和GWD的题目时，有这么一道CR题：86. (24835-!-item-!-188;#058&001244)
Which of the following most logically completes the passage?
Concerned about the 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
答案选E
而OG13上有一道十分类似的题
Plan: Concerned about the welfare of its senior citizens, the government of Runagia decided two years ago to
increase by 20 percent the government-provided pension paid to all Runagians age sixty-five and older.
Result: Many Runagian senior citizens are no better off financially now than they were before the increase.
Further information: The annual rate of inflation since the pension increase has been below 5 percent, and the
increased pension has been duly received by all eligible Runagians.
In light of the further information, which of the following, if true, does most to explain the result that followed
implementation of the plan?
(A) The majority of senior citizens whose financial position has not improved rely entirely on the government
pension for their income.
(B) The Runagian banking system is so inefficient that cashing a pension check can take as much as three
weeks.
(C) The prices of goods and services that meet the special needs of many senior citizens have increased at a
rate much higher than the rate of inflation.
(D) The pension increase occurred at a time when the number of Runagians age sixty-five and older who were
living below the poverty level was at an all-time high.
(E) The most recent pension increase was only the second such increase in the last ten years.
答案是C
如果说GWD的这道题是OG题变体的话，变体就是一个词： negligible，一个是忽略通货膨胀，一个是通货膨胀了5%，答案就有明显差别。
在此提醒使用JJ的同学仔细读题，CR的题干，尤其条件和结论，每个字都很关键
