The traditional treatment of strep infections has been a seven-day course of antibiotics, either penicillin or erythromycin. However, since many patients stop taking those drugs within three days, reinfection is common in cases where those drugs are prescribed. A new antibiotic requires only a three-day course of treatment. Therefore, reinfection will probably be less common in cases where the new antibiotic is prescribed than in cases where either penicillin or erythromycin is prescribed.

Which of the following, if true, most strengthens the argument?

ASome of the people who are allergic to penicillin are likely to be allergic to the new antibiotic.
BA course of treatment with the new antibiotic costs about the same as a course of treatment with either penicillin or erythromycin.
CThe new antibiotic has been shown to be effective in eradicating bacterial infections other than strep.
DSome physicians have already begun to prescribe the new antibiotic instead of penicillin or erythromycin for the treatment of some strep infections.
ERegardless of whether they take a traditional antibiotic or the new one, most patients feel fully recovered after taking the drug for three days.

正确答案: E

1。方法可不可行的概念很含糊，很泛，难以界定，所以很容易被TRICK，建议慎用，我是从来不用。

2。B错的原因同joe11兄。D错的原因是结论是比较病人有吃新药的情况，所以医生没开新药从而病人没吃新药的情况不在结论讨论范围。其实该题用排除法很容易排除剩下E。

3。E的支持较复杂。原文说旧药疗程7天，有些病人才吃3天，所以reinfection较普遍（这句话要表达的意思reinfection是没完成疗期之故），新药疗程只要3天（言下之意吃完3天药，reinfection就少，加强不需要充分性，所以这点意思不需要明确从原文说出）。得出结论说吃旧药reinfection比吃新药普遍。E说不管吃旧药新药，多数病人吃三天就觉得好了。言下之意就是多数吃三天就不吃啦，这样就导致结论情况的出现，所以加强结论。
