刚刚楼下有人吵架，好烦，看来是晕了，竟然b、c写错了

还有，确实如ethyl说得，是得注意时间了，今天又超时12分钟。。。。。。

而且早上想试验一下，还喝了半罐红牛，明天再试试，也许这东西对我没什么用

静下心来，不要被影响了

欧觉得从第一段可以看出supplier partnerships是针对那些indirect 的purchase来讨论的，D选项中的when the goods or services provided are directly related to the purchasers’ end products已经超出了原文讨论的范围，所以不能从原文中infer出来。不知对否？

恩,我大概知道了,唉,前两天做的居然都不怎么记得了,看了两三遍才明白

以下是引用tania在2005-9-1 19:03:00的发言：

我觉得应该选B。因为原文中k反驳m的观点基于三方面：一是在没有人捕猎的地方那些大的动物也灭绝了（红色部分）；二是除了那些大动物之外，有一些小的人们不消费的动物（not all）也灭绝了（绿色部分）（前两个观点说明也许不是人类的捕食造成了动物灭绝）；三是通过说明气候变化确实发生了来驳斥m认为气候不能作为解释动物灭绝的原因（蓝色部分）。

B选项是对k的第二个观点进行的反驳，指出人们其实都是吃这些小动物的，没有人们不吃的小动物

C选项不能作为削弱，如果是削弱的话，应当说明气候没有发生变化，而C选项承认了确实发生了气候的变化，只是把时间扩展了，说以前和以后也发生了气候变化，但他并没有削弱发生气候变化这个事情。

所以我认为C不对。

请拍砖

同意B. 我现在觉得阅读其实就是一篇大逻辑

昨天做了XY版的GWD6, 有两个问题.

Q14:

Political Advertisement:
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?

1. 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.
   
2. Average pay in the city was at a ten-year low when Mayor Delmont took office.
   
3. Some of the jobs created in the city during Mayor Delmont’s tenure have in the meantime been eliminated again.
   
4. 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.
   
5. The average pay for jobs in the city is currently higher than it is for jobs in the suburbs surrounding the city.

这道题答案是D,我觉得D相对来说是很好,但是题目问的是strengthen, 我怎么觉得D更象是assumption呢?

Q34:

The market for recycled commodities like aluminum and other metals remain strong despite economic changes in the recycling industry.

1. commodities like aluminum and other metals remain


2. commodities like those of aluminum and other metals are remaining


3. commodities such as aluminum and other metals remains


4. commodities, such as aluminum and other metals, remain


5. commodities, like the commodities of aluminum and other metals, remains

这题C是不是改成commodities, such as aluminum and other metals, remains比较好啊?

      Over the last 150 years, large

       stretches of salmon habitat have

       been eliminated by human activity:

Line       mining, livestock grazing, timber

  (5)      harvesting, and agriculture as well

as recreational and urban devel-

opment.  The numerical effect is

obvious:  there are fewer salmon

in degraded regions than in pris-

(10)      tine ones; however, habitat loss

also has the potential to reduce

genetic diversity.  This is most

evident in cases where it results

in the extinction of entire salmon

(15)      populations.  Indeed, most

analysts believe that some kind

of environmental degradation

underlies the demise of many

extinct salmon populations.

(20)      Although some rivers have

       been recolonized, the unique

       genes of the original populations

have been lost.

      Large-scale disturbances in

(25)      one locale also have the potential

to alter the genetic structure of

populations in neighboring areas,

even if those areas have pristine

habitats.  Why?  Although the

(30)      homing instinct of salmon to their

natal stream is strong, a fraction

of the fish returning from the sea

       (rarely more than 15 percent)

stray and spawn in nearby

(35)    streams.  Low levels of straying

are crucial, since the process

provides a source of novel

genes and a mechanism

      by which a location can be

(40)     repopulated should the fish

there disappear.  Yet high rates

of straying can be problematic

because misdirected fish may

interbreed with the existing stock

(45)      to such a degree that any local

adaptations that are present

become diluted.  Straying

rates remain relatively low when

environmental conditions are

(50)      stable, but can increase dramati-

cally when streams suffer severe

disturbance.  The 1980 volcanic

eruption of Mount Saint Helens,

for example, sent mud and debris

(55)      into several tributaries of the

Columbia River.  For the next

couple of years, steelhead trout

(a species included among the

salmonids) returning from the

(60)      sea to spawn were forced to

find alternative streams.  As

a consequence, their rates of

straying, initially 16 percent,

rose to more than 40 percent

(65)      overall.

      Although no one has quantified

changes in the rate of straying

as a result of the disturbances

caused by humans, there is no

(70)      reason to suspect that the effect

would be qualitatively different

than what was seen in the

aftermath of the Mount Saint

Helens eruption.  Such a dra-

(75)      matic increase in straying from

damaged areas to more pristine

streams results in substantial

gene flow, which can in turn lower

the overall fitness of subsequent

generations.

Q9:

The primary purpose of the passage is to

              

1. argue against a conventional explanation for the extinction of certain salmon populations and suggest an alternative
   
2. correct a common misunderstanding about the behavior of salmon in response to environmental degradation caused by human activity
   
3. compare the effects of human activity on salmon populations with the effects of natural disturbances on salmon populations
   
4. differentiate the particular effects of various human activities on salmon habitats
   
5. describe how environmental degradation can cause changes in salmon populations that extend beyond a numerical reduction

Q12:

The author mentions the “aftermath of the Mount Saint Helens eruption” (lines 73-74) most likely in order to

A.     provide an example of the process that allows the repopulation of rivers whose indigenous salmon population has become extinct

B.     indicate the extent to which the disturbance of salmon habitat by human activity in one stream might affect the genetic structure of salmon populations elsewhere

C.     provide a standard of comparison against which the impact of human activity on the gene flow among salmon populations should be measured

D.     show how salmons’ homing instinct can be impaired as a result of severe environmental degradation of their natal streams

E.      show why straying rates in salmon populations remain generally low except when spawning streams suffer severe environmental disturbance

再和大家探讨一下这两题：

Q9：虽然用排除法可以选出E，但是感觉有点牵强啊，全篇3段，有2段涉及人为破坏的影响，怎么能在主题题中只谈自然破坏的影响一边哩？E是不是有点以偏概全啊，另一个值得多看一眼的C虽然顾及了2边但是是不是compare用在这里不合适？原文只是在最后淡淡代过一句“ 类似”，而且还不是很确凿，所以排除。。。

Q12：这题就更争议啦。。。可以算GWD十大不解之谜了，前面的帖子也看了一些，只是我有个新想法让大家看看有没有道理。开始选的B，因为C长得太丑了，可是后来在B选项的最后发现了一个词elsewhere，再重读B选项，感觉是这样的：目的是指出人为造成的骚动在其他地方多大程度上影响了鲑鱼的基因结构。In order to的题目一定要和前后文及作者意图相联系，最后一段的意思主要是想对人为破坏和自然破坏造成的影响进行比较，MSH也是代表的自然破坏，但按B理解是将MSH和其他地区的破坏情况进行了比较，那么就有悖作者意图啦。。。

请指教。。。

个人觉得那样不对，因为改成commodities, such as aluminum and other metals, remains以后，就便成such as 修饰the market 了，这里是特意将such as 与commondities相连以避免歧异，这点和V-ing的位置关系有些相似。

GWD7-04

Only seven people this century have been killed by the great white shark, the man-eater of the movies—less than those killed by bee stings.

A.      movies—less than those

B.       movies—fewer than have been

C.       movies, which is less than those

D.      movies, a number lower than the people

E.       movies, fewer than the ones

怎么我觉得没有一个是对的

B中的 have been 之前不用加those之类的词吗?
