Mayor Delmont’s critics complain about the jobs that were lost in the city under Delmont’s leadership. Yet the fact is that not only were more jobs created than were eliminated, but the average pay for these new jobs has been higher than the average pay for jobs citywide every year since Delmont took office. So there can be no question that throughout Delmont’s tenure the average paycheck in this city has been getting steadily bigger.
Which of the following, if true, most strengthens the argument in the advertisement?
A. The average pay for jobs created in the city during the past three years was higher than the average pay for jobs created in the city earlier in Mayor Delmont’s tenure. B. Average pay in the city was at a ten-year low when Mayor Delmont took office. C. Some of the jobs created in the city during Mayor Delmont’s tenure have in the meantime been eliminated again. D. The average pay for jobs eliminated in the city during Mayor Delmont’s tenure has been roughly equal every year to the average pay for jobs citywide. E. The average pay for jobs in the city is currently higher than it is for jobs in the suburbs surrounding the city. Answer: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Q15: Capuchin monkeys often rub their bodies with a certain type of millipede. Laboratory tests show that secretions from the bodies of these millipedes are rich in two chemicals that are potent mosquito repellents, and mosquitoes carry parasites that debilitate capuchins. Some scientists hypothesize that the monkeys rub their bodies with the millipedes because doing so helps protect them from mosquitoes.
Which of the following, if true, provides the most support for the scientists’ hypothesis?
A. A single millipede often gets passed around among several capuchins, all of whom rub their bodies with it. B. The two chemicals that repel mosquitoes also repel several other varieties of insects. C. The capuchins rarely rub their bodies with the millipedes except during the rainy season, when mosquito populations are at their peak. D. Although the capuchins eat several species of insects, they do not eat the type of millipede they use to rub their bodies. E. The two insect-repelling chemicals in the secretions of the millipedes are carcinogenic for humans but do not appear to be carcinogenic for capuchins. Answer:
我的GWD答案是 D 和 C lz是不是答案错了？ Q14: D 原文两个证据：1 more jobs created 2new jobs has been higher than the average ----> average paycheck has been getting steadily bigger。 如果取消的工作也比平均工资高，那原文的第二个证据对结论的证明力就减少。 D排除这种情况。所以加强了第二个证据 一增一减的思想
A 是拿过去三年和更早（比过去三年早）的市长D的任期比。 所以无关
Q15 situation： rub驱蚊---->猴子rub C：无因无果，有因有果加强 mosquito populations are at their peak ---> rub mosquito populations 没有 at their peak--->不rub
