Q1:
Kernland imposes a high tariff on the export of unprocessed cashew nuts in order to ensure that the nuts are sold to domestic processing plants.If the tariff were lifted and unprocessed cashews were sold at world market prices, more farmers could profit by growing cashews.However, since all the processing plants are in urban areas, removing the tariff would seriously hamper the government’s effort to reduce urban unemployment over the next five years.

Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument?

Some of the by-products of processing cashews are used for manufacturing paints and plastics.
Other countries in which cashews are processed subsidize their processing plants.
More people in Kernland are engaged in farming cashews than in processing them.
Buying unprocessed cashews at lower than world market prices enables cashew processors in Kernland to sell processed nuts at competitive prices.
A lack of profitable crops is driving an increasing number of small farmers in Kernland off their land and into the cities.

这题答案是E，但是我百思不得其解，如果E对那为什么C不对？还有E对于城镇的失业率有什么直接关系么？我的理解是政府加高出口税就是为了能够先保证国内供给，不知道对不对

Q2:
In 1983 Argonia’s currency, the argon, underwent a reduction in value relative to the world’s strongest currencies.This reduction resulted in a significant increase in Argonia’s exports over 1982 levels.In 1987 a similar reduction in the value of the argon led to another increase in Argonia’s exports.Faced with the need to increase exports yet again, Argonia’s finance minister has proposed another reduction in the value of the argon.

Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the prediction that the finance minister’s plan will not result in a significant increase in Argonia’s exports next year?

The value of the argon rose sharply last year against the world’s strongest currencies.
In 1988 the argon lost a small amount of its value, and Argonian exports rose slightly in 1989.
The value of Argonia’s exports was lower last year than it was the year before.
All of Argonia’s export products are made by factories that were operating at full capacity last year, and new factories would take years to build.
Reductions in the value of the argon have almost always led to significant reductions in the amount of goods and services that Argonians purchase from abroad.

这题答案是D，但是我搞不懂你工厂满负荷生产和货币贬值来增加出口额有什么直接关系？当中少了两个条件吧？1.货币贬值会让生产商更愿意出口 2.货币贬值不会影响国外进口商对于商品的需求，但是这两个在这里都没有说明

Q3:
Press Secretary:Our critics claim that the President’s recent highway project cancellations demonstrate a vindictive desire to punish legislative districts controlled by opposition parties.They offer as evidence the fact that 90 percent of the projects canceled were in such districts.But all of the canceled projects had been identified as wasteful in a report written by respected nonpartisan auditors.So the President’s choice was clearly motivated by sound budgetary policy, not partisan politics.

Which of the following is an assumption on which the press secretary’s argument depends?

Canceling highway projects was not the only way for the President to punish legislative districts controlled by opposition parties.
The scheduled highway projects identified as wasteful in the report were not mostly projects in districts controlled by the President’s party.
The number of projects canceled was a significant proportion of all the highway projects that were to be undertaken by the government in the near future.
The highway projects canceled in districts controlled by the President’s party were not generally more expensive than the projects canceled in districts controlled by opposition parties.
Reports by nonpartisan auditors are not generally regarded by the opposition parties as a source of objective assessments of government projects.
