FEIFEI-63

63. Some good cooks are gourmet cooks who pride themselves on always using extravagantly rich ingredients in elaborate recipes. Some good cooks can be characterized as fast-food cooks. They may use rich ingredients as long as the recipes are easy to follow and take little time. Other good cooks are health food enthusiasts, who are concerned primarily with the nutritional value of food. But even though not all good cooks are big eaters, they all enjoy preparing and serving food.

If the information in the passage is true, which one of the following CANNOT be true?

(A) Most good cooks do not use extravagantly rich ingredients.

(B) Everyone who enjoys preparing and serving food is a good cook.

(C) More good cooks who use extravagantly rich ingredients are big eaters than are good cooks who do not use such ingredients.

(D) There are fewer good cooks who enjoy serving and preparing food than there are good cooks who are big eaters.

(E) Gourmet cooks, fast-food cooks, and cooks who are health food enthusiasts are all big eaters.

这道题目是不是有问题啊?应该是问那个是对的吧?除了A,别的都不能从原文推出啊!

请教各位xdjm了.

MM

CANNOT be true通常应该是与原文相矛盾的。只要有一点可能是对的，也不能被排除在本题的正确选项。

本题要注意other这个词的理解。实在不行，就划几个数学中集合的圈圈。

E中Gourmet cooks, fast-food cooks, and cooks who are health food enthusiasts包括了所有 all good cooks ；

而原文又说， not all good cooks are big eaters，所以，E必然不对。

but the given answer is D

what's wrong?

thanks

Information01: Some good cooks are gourmet cooks using extravagantly rich ingredients

Information02: Some good cooks are fast-food cooks

Information03: The recipes are easy to follow and take little timeàsome good cooks may use rich ingredients

Information04:  Other good cooks are health food enthusiasts concerning primarily with the nutritional value of food.

Information05:  Not all good cooks are big eaters

Information06:  Good cooks are all enjoy preparing and serving food

(A) Most good cooks do not use extravagantly rich ingredients.
            

     根据information01: 有可能是对的，不是必错。

(B) Everyone who enjoys preparing and serving food is a good cook.

     根据information06:  该题说good cooksàall enjoy preparing and serving food. 但all enjoy preparing and serving foodà good cooks 是原命题的否定题，不对，但也不能肯定是错的，不是必错。

(C) More good cooks who use extravagantly rich ingredients are big eaters than are good cooks who do not use such ingredients.

       根据information05：
            仅该信息提及big eaters，
            其它信息没有提及更多的信息，无法判断本选项是正确还是错误，不是必错。

(D) There are fewer good cooks who enjoy serving and preparing food than there are good cooks who are big eaters.

由Information05，设all good cooks为100%，
            则其中big eaters 的比例
            〈100%；

再由Information06，good cooks who enjoy serving and preparing food的比例=100%。则可判断本选项必错。

(E) Gourmet cooks, fast-food cooks, and cooks who are health food enthusiasts are all big eaters.

       根据Information04：仅该信息提及health food enthusiasts，其它信息没有提供更多的信息来判断本选项必错，不是必错。
