Questions 55-56

The simple facts are these: the number of people killed each year by bears is about the same as the number of people killed by lightning of golf courses. And the number of people killed by lightning on golf courses each year is about the same as the number of people electrocuted by electric blenders. All the horrible myths and gruesome stories aside, therefore a grizzly bear is in fact about as dangerous as an electric blender or a game of golf.

A.        Although the number of people killed by lightning on golf courses each year is very small, the total number of lightning fatalities is many times greater.

B.        Electric blenders are among the safest housed hold appliances; were the author to compare fatalities from electrical appliances in general, she would get a much higher figure.

C.        Most people would rather take their chances with benders and golf games than with grizzly bears.

D.       Bears in general---including black, brown, and cinnamon bears, as well as grizzly bears---kill many more people than do electric blenders.

E.        Statistics show that the number of times people use electric blenders each year exceeds the number of times people play golf each year, which in turn far exceeds the number of contacts people have with grizzly bears each year.

答案: E

思路: 否定死亡数量与危险度的关系,找出影响危险度的另一个因素.

A: 无关选项, 被电击致死的总数量与因lightning on golf courses致死的数量比较, 属无关比较.

B: 无关选项, 其他electrical appliance的死亡数量更高, 与比较无关.

C: 大多数人的态度, 无关选项

D: 熊比electric blender杀的人多, 无关比较.

E: 正确, 人们接触某种情况的时间 (机会) 越多 (大), 其危险度越高.

对于E的答案表示认同，但是对于e选项的解释不能理解, 每年死亡的人数是一定的，当然是接触的次数越少，说明死亡的发生率就越高，所以就越危险啊！
