Fact 1: Television advertising is becoming less effective: the proportion of brand names promoted on television that viewers of the advertising can recall is slowly decreasing.

Fact 2: Television viewers recall commercials aired first or last in a cluster of consecutive commercials far better than they recall commercials aired somewhere in the middle.

Fact 2 would be most likely to contribute to an explanation of fact 1 if which of the following were also true?

(A) The average television viewer currently recalls fewer than half the brand names promoted in commercials he or she saw.

(B) The total time allotted to the average cluster of consecutive television commercials is decreasing.

(C) The average number of hours per day that people spend watching television is decreasing.

(D) The average number of clusters of consecutive commercials per hour of television is increasing.（E）

(E) The average number of television commercials in a cluster of consecutive commercials is increasing

E正确.

以下是几道结论题,不知道怎么做.

18. Radio interferometry is a technique for studying details of celestial objects that combines signals intercepted by widely spaced radio telescopes. This technique requires ultraprecise timing, exact knowledge of the locations of the telescopes, and sophisticated computer programs. The successful interferometric linking of an Earth-based radio telescope with a radio telescope on an orbiting satellite was therefore a significant technological accomplishment.

Which of the following can be correctly inferred from the statements above?

(A) Special care was taken in the launching of the satellite so that the calculations of its orbit would be facilitated.

(B) The signals received on the satellite are stronger than those received by a terrestrial telescope.

(C) The resolution of detail achieved by the satellite-Earth interferometer system is inferior to that achieved by exclusively terrestrial systems.

(D) The computer programs required for making use of the signals received by the satellite required a long time for development.（E）

(E) The location of an orbiting satellite relative to locations on Earth can be well enough known for interferometric purposes.

19. Recent estimates predict that between 1982 and 1995 the greatest increase in the number of people employed will be in the category of low-paying service occupations. This category, however, will not increase its share of total employment, whereas the category of high-paying service occupations will increase its share.

If the estimates above are accurate, which of the following conclusions can be drawn?

(A) In 1982 more people were working in low-paying service occupations than were working in high-paying service occupations.

(B) In 1995 more people will be working in high-paying service occupations than will be working in low-paying service occupations.

(C) Nonservice occupations will account for the same share of total employment in 1995 as in 1982.

(D) Many of the people who were working in low-paying service occupations in 1982 will be working in high-paying service occupations by 1995.（A）

(E) The rate of growth for low-paying service occupations will be greater than the overall rate of employment growth between 1982 and 1995.

20. For a local government to outlaw all strikes by its workers is a costly mistake, because all its labor disputes must then be settled by binding arbitration, without any negotiated public-sector labor settlements guiding the arbitrators. Strikes should be outlawed only for categories of public-sector workers for whose services no acceptable substitute exists.

The statements above best support which of the following conclusions?

(A) Where public-service workers are permitted to strike, contract negotiations with those workers are typically settled without a strike.

(B) Where strikes by all categories of pubic-sector workers are outlawed, no acceptable substitutes for the services provided by any of those workers are available.

(C) Binding arbitration tends to be more advantageous for public-service workers where it is the only available means of settling labor disputes with such workers.

(D) Most categories of public-sector workers have no counterparts in the private sector.（C）

(E) A strike by workers in a local government is unlikely to be settled without help from an arbitrator.

答案依次是E,A,C.

有人能讲一下第一题么，觉得选项好像都有解释的功能

No. 1 is a simple math.

Suppose each viewer only remembers the first and the last ads in a cluster and the number of clusters remain constant. Therefore, the viewer remembers the same total number of ads after watching TV. If the number of ads within each cluster increases, the total ads the viewer watches increase. Then the PROPORTION of ads the viewer can remember will decrease becasue the denominator is bigger!
