不知怎么从ACROBAT中粘贴上原句,谁能帮忙一下.

问题:选项A没问题, 可不明白C错在哪里了?

C说到pretection from some insect pest other than mosquito

这是无关选项；因为原文说的是蚊子和疟疾。

C不是正好排出了它因.说明蚊子防不了,那疟疾也防不了. 这不是加强原文吗?

GWD-9-Q12:

A mosquito bite can transmit to a person the parasite that causes malaria, and the use of mosquito nets over children’s beds can significantly reduce the incidence of malarial infection for children in areas where malaria is common. Yet public health officials are reluctant to recommend the use of mosquito nets over children’s beds in such areas.

Which of the following, if true, would provide the strongest grounds for the public health officials’ reluctance?

A. Early exposure to malaria increases the body’s resistance to it and results in a lesser likelihood of severe life-threatening episodes of malaria.

B. Mosquito bites can transmit to people diseases other than malaria.

C. Mosquito nets provide protection from some insect pests other than mosquitoes.

D. Although there are vaccines available for many childhood diseases, no vaccine has been developed that is effective against malaria.

E. The pesticides that are most effective against mosquitoes in regions where malaria is common have significant detrimental effects on human health.[A]

I only think of the two factors in this argument: misquito and malaria and ignore the author's conclusion about refusing the misquito net in affected area. Your explanations is definitely making sense. Thanks so much!

是选A，但是2楼的解释不对。other than是除了。。以外的意思，C是说蚊帐不能防止蚊子。

排除C的原因是原文中明确提到：the use of mosquito nets over children’s beds can significantly reduce the incidence of malarial infection for children，所以蚊帐防啥虫子都是无关的。

对于选项A正确，没有意见

但是要怎么排除c，我的看法跟上面的是一样的，困惑中

以下是引用peterchang在2006-9-27 13:34:00的发言：

我也有同样的困惑，有没有NN能讲解一下子？

that's the understanding problem here

C:Mosquito nets provide protection from some insect pests other than mosquitoes.

C is saying that except mosquitoes,mosquito nets also provide protection from some insect pests

[other than ] is different from [rather than]

[other than] means except  or  apart from
