Q14:

The average hourly wage of television assemblers in Vernland has long been significantly lower than that in neighboring Borodia.  Since Borodia dropped all tariffs on Vernlandian televisions three years ago, the number of televisions sold annually in Borodia has not changed.  However, recent statistics show a droip in the number of television assemblers in Borodia.  Therefore, updated trade statistics will probably indicate that the number of televisions Borodia imports annually from Vernland has increased.

Which of the following is an assumption on which the argument depends?

1. The number of television assemblers in Vernland has increased by at least as much as the number of television assemblers in Borodia has decreased.
2. Televisions assembled in Vernland have features that televisions assembled in Borodia do not have.
3. The average number of hours it takes a Borodian television assembler to assemble a television has not decreased significantly during the past three years.
4. The number of televisions assembled annually in Vernland has increased significantly during the past three years.
5. The difference between the hourly wage of television assemblers in Vernland and the hourly wage of television assemblers in Borodia is likely to decrease in the next few years.

   Answer: C

完全不能理解~~~                 

这道题目我也错过许多次了

题目分析：平均小时工资差距-〉V的电视机成本比B的低

          取消关税-〉B电视机销售量不变的情况下，B自产量变低-〉怀疑是来自V的

          所以C能绝对反驳这个问题

猜想你可能选的是A，那么如果V的电视机比B还贵，即便V出口了更多，也是出口去了别的国家，而价格便宜是关键。

可能考试时候没有那么多时间考虑，一个心得，但凡考虑到总量和**率的问题，基本上就是解题关键，想都不要想，选分辨单位量和总量的那个选项。

文章中说：show a droip in the number of television assemblers in Borodia 装配工的人数减少

c中说组装电视机的时间没有减少是排除他因（因为，装配工人数x每人组装个数=可出售总数）

这道题的思路我认为是这样的

条件：v的工资低以及b的tarriff低；b的tv销量保持不变且b的tv工人少了

结果：b每年从v进口tv的量提高了。

在这个条件下，这个结果是不成立的，因为如果，b的工人少了，但是单位时间的生产率大了呢。所以答案c对。

这种题的“道为”如果A-B,若A变－B不变或A不变－B变，则属于weaken。若A变－B变，则为support.
