Early in the twentieth century, Lake Konfa became very polluted. Recently fish populations have recovered as release of industrial pollutants has declined and the lake’s waters have become cleaner. Fears are now being voiced that the planned construction of an oil pipeline across the lake’s bottom might revive pollution and cause the fish population to decline again. However, a technology for preventing leaks is being installed. Therefore, provided this technology is effective, those fears are groundless. The argument depends on assuming which of the following? A: Apart from development related to the pipeline, there will be no new industrial development around the lake that will create renewed pollution in its waters. 文中的结论是跟这个prevent leak的technology有关,此选项无关 B: Other than the possibility of a leak, there is no realistic pollution threat posed to the lake by the pipeline’s construction. 正确,唯一会pollute的只有leak,所以可以prevent leak就可以prevent pollution C: There is no reason to believe that the leak-preventing technology would be ineffective when installed in the pipeline in Lake Konfa. 这种类型的选项基本上都可以直接排除D: Damage to the lake’s fish populations would be the only harm that a leak of oil from the pipeline would cause. Technology才是critical point, damage的种类无关 D: Damage to the lake’s fish populations would be the only harm that a leak of oil from the pipeline would cause. Technology才是critical point, damage的种类无关 E: The species of fish that are present in Lake Konfa now are the same as those that were in the lake before it was affected by Technology才是critical point, species无关 Paper&rint is a chain of British stores selling magazines, books, and stationery products. In Britain, magazines’ retail prices are set by publishers, and the retailer’s share of a magazine’s retail price is 25 percent. Since Paper&rint’s margin on books and stationery products is much higher, the chain’s management plans to devote more of its stores’ shelf space to books and stationery products and reduce the number of magazine titles that its stores carry. Which of the following, if true, most strongly argues that the plan, if put into effect, will not increase Paper&rint’s profits? A: Recently magazine publishers, seeking to increase share in competitive sectors of the market, have been competitively cutting the retail prices of some of the largest circulation magazines.Magazine的利润本来就少, cutting retail price会让retailer的利润margin更小,所以是support这个plan会make profits! Magazine的利润本来就少, cutting retail price会让retailer的利润margin更小,所以是support这个plan会make profits! B: In market research surveys, few consumers identify Paper&rint as a book or stationery store but many recognize and value the broad range of magazines it carries.正确,提出原因会伤害到retailer的profitability! 正确,提出原因会伤害到retailer的profitability! C: The publisher’s share of a magazine’s retail price is 50 percent, and the publisher also retains all of the magazine’s advertising revenue.文章关心的是retailer的 profits,此选项只提到publisher的 profit算法,无关! 文章关心的是retailer的 profits,此选项只提到publisher的 profit算法,无关! D: Consumers who subscribe to a magazine generally pay less per issue than they would if they bought the magazine through a retail outlet such as Paper&rint.Subscriber已经超过文章讨论的范畴了,直接排除! Subscriber已经超过文章讨论的范畴了,直接排除! E: Some of Paper& Print’s locations are in small towns and represent the only retail outlet for books within the community.此选项证明因为retailer是the only one,所以可以make profit,是support选项! 此选项证明因为retailer是the only one,所以可以make profit,是support选项! 这几个例子涵盖了support, assumption, evaluation, and weaken的题型 都是我在复习GWD的同时随机挑的 证明了GMAT大部分的CR题型 只要抓住critical point 是可以很快选出来的 建议大家总结时每一题读完先问自己:这题的critical point是什么? 然后再看选项 我相信对提升速度及准确率是会有帮助的 再加上CD上所有前辈们的心血贡献 势必杀G啊! 以上只是小弟一点心得 希望能对CD上的各位有所帮助!
