不同意的。这题选B的。这题主要为了证明passenger jet division减废是否成功。那么B就是最好的解释。如果生产jet的数量和以前一样，每个工人的产废减少，那么division的减废计划是成功的。

E不能证明division的计划成功。因为，如果工人数一样，生产Jet的量大量减少的话，那么每人产出的harzard自然也少。所以无法判断division的减废是否成功。所以E错。

我觉得要记得看最后一句结论，Clearly, therefore, charges that the manufacturer’s program has not met its goal are false. 这句是要证明的东西。为了证明这句，只有B是正确的。

晕了，我现在觉得B、E应该加起来

我现在pace跟3w很像，也是逻辑慢，通常都要2分钟左右，整体看下来，还是阅读的速度快，通常一分钟以内搞定一题，语法波动较大，很难像nn们那样，有一个很稳定的pace

我也是阅读快，有时候三分半就能搞定第一题，逻辑真是心痛啊

天山-3-16

Q16:

In response to mounting pubic concern, an airplane manufacturer implemented a program with the well-publicized goal of reducing by half the total yearly amount of hazardous waste generated by its passenger-jet division.  When the program began in 1994, the division’s hazardous waste output was 90 pounds per production worker; last year it was 40 pounds per production worker. Clearly, therefore, charges that the manufacturer’s program has not met its goal are false.

Which of the following is an assumption on which the argument depends?

A.  The amount of nonhazardous waste generated each year by the passenger-jet division has not increased significantly since 1994.

B.   At least as many passenger jets were produced by the division last year as had been produced in 1994.

C.   Since 1994, other divisions in the company have achieved reductions in hazardous waste output that are at least equal to that achieved in the passenger-jet division.

D.  The average number of weekly hours per production worker in the passenger-jet division was not significantly greater last year than it was in 1994.

E.   The number of production workers assigned to the passenger-jet division was not significantly less in 1994 than it was last year.

想了一下，觉得还是应该选E，因为total output=number of workers*output per worker或者total output=number of jets*output per jet，而题目给的是output per worker，所以只能针对前一个式子

不同意，原文中提出goal：reducing by half the total yearly amount of hazardous waste ，这是一个总量的概念，得出这个结论的原因是in 1994, the division’s hazardous waste output was 90 pounds per production worker; last year it was 40 pounds per production worker.这是一个人均的概念。这两者之间是有一个gap的，就是人数。

这两道逻辑题也是我说不清楚的，只能把我的选择告诉你了

以下是引用vacationer在2005-9-11 23:30:00的发言：

T-4-Q32

Delta products, Inc., has recently switched at least partly from older technologies using fossil fuels to new technologies powered by electricity. The question has been raised whether it can be concluded that for a given level of output, Delta’s operation now causes less fossil fuel to be consumed than it did formerly. The answer, clearly, is yes, since the amount of fossil fuel used to fenerate the electricity needed to power the new technologies is less than the amount needed to power the older technologies, provided that the level of output is held constant.

In the argument given, the two boldface portions play which of the following roles?

1. The first identifies the content of the conclusion of the argument; the second provides support for that conclusion.
   



2. The first provides support for the conclusion of the argument; the second identifies the content of that conclusion.
   



3. The first states the position that the argument opposes; the second states the conclusion of the argument.
   



4. Each provides evidence that calls the conclusion of the argument into question.
   



5. Each provides support for conclusion of the argument.

我对这题也感觉很郁闷，我选了A，实在是不能理解第一句话是支持。

T-4-Q38

In one state, all cities and most towns have antismoking ordinances, a petition entitled “Petition for Statewide Smoking Restriction” is being circulated to voters by campaign workers who ask only, “Do you want to sign a petition for statewide smoking restriction?” The petition advocates a state law banning smoking in most retail establishments and in government offices that are open to the public.

Which of the following circumstances would make the petition as circulated misleading to voters who understand the proposal as extending the local ordinances statewide?

1. Health costs associated with smoking cause health insurance premiums to rise for everyone and so affect nonsmokers.
   



2. In rural areas of the state, there are relatively few retail establishments and government offices that are open to the public.
   



3. The state law would supersede the local antismoking ordinances, which contain stronger bans than the state law does.
   



4. There is considerable sentiment among voters in most areas of the state for restriction of smoking.
   



5. The state law would not affect existing local ordinances banning smoking in places where the fire authorities have determined that smoking would constitute a fire hazard.

我同意B

T-4-Q39

Five hundred million different species of living creatures have appeared on Earth, nearly 99 percent of them vanishing.

1. Five hundred million different species of living creatures have appeared on Earth, nearly 99 percent of them vanishing.（感觉主句时态不好，这么多生物既然一直存活到现在了，又何所谓消失了呢？觉得逻辑意思不好）
   



2. Nearly 99 percent of five hundred million different species of living creatures that appeared on Earth have vanished.
   



3. Vanished are nearly 99percent of the five hundred million different species of living creatures that appeared on Earth.（这里应该是倒装，但既没有道理倒装，也不应该是被动）
   



4. Of five hundred million different species of living creatures that have appeared on Earth, nearly 99 percent of them have vanished.（跟A的理由一样）
   



5. Of the five hundred million different species of living creatures that have appeared on Earth, nearly 99 percent have vanished.（同上）

同意B，这题也感觉怪怪的，大家都是怎么看的啊？？

E不能证明division的计划成功。因为，如果工人数一样，生产Jet的量大量减少的话，那么每人产出的harzard自然也少。所以无法判断division的减废是否成功。所以E错。

高量部分都对，但是你高量部分成立的前提是，生产jet量和以前一样多，否则都不能比较。把B取非，jet生产量少了，人多的话，人均hazard很少，人少的话，hazard可多可少，看人少到什么情况。所以B取非后，减废program是否成功无法比较的。

E取非，人数大量增加，按你说的总量给出了，那么我们可以知道人均产出hazard是减少的，和program是否有效没有关系的。是人数造成的原因。所以Ｅ不能证明减废的program是否有效，因而错误。

babypace

我都差不多。逻辑一直是最好的。最近几套逻辑有些反常错３，４个，除了白痴错误，还有逻辑的混淆题。一般我都错２个逻辑。

要提高和稳定的还是语法和阅读。阅读我看文章比较慢，但是现在回去定位比以前少很多，很多东西看的时候记住了。大方向明确，很多题目可以定下来的。语法好坏难说，好的错２个，坏的错４个。看大家争论不休的，就不明白自己到底错几个了。

AegeanSea2006

看大家的阅读这么好，我真是嫉妒。

到现在我还是文章读的很慢，读懂文章后，做题时还要回去定位，就像白看了一样（看完选项就晕了）。最痛心的还是主题题，经常看完文章后，很有把握的选择了一个错误答案，55555，不敢想，还有几天就考试了。。。

我的PACE也很差，题目作不出来就着急，顾不上什么pace了，经常超时，严重超时。。。

T-9-Q41. 大全987-830

The spraying of pesticides can be carefully planned, but accidents, weather conditions that could not be foreseen, and pilot errors often cause much larger deposits of spray than they had anticipated.

(A) weather conditions that could not be foreseen, and pilot errors often cause much larger deposits of spray than they had

(B) weather conditions that cannot be foreseen, and pilot errors often cause much larger deposits of spray than

(C) unforeseeable weather conditions, and pilot errors are the cause of much larger deposits of spray than they had

(D) weather conditions that are not foreseeable, and pilot errors often cause much larger deposits of spray than

(E) unforeseeable weather conditions, and pilot errors often cause much larger deposits of spray than they had

B和D有什么不一样吗?

T-9-Q2.

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 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?

1. Some of the by-products of processing cashews are used for manufacturing plants and plastics



2. Other countries in which cashews are processed subsidize their processing plants



3. More people in kernland are engaged in farming cashews than in processing them



4. Buying unprocessed cashews at lower than world market prices enables cashew processors in kernland to sell processed nuts at competitive prices



5. A lack of profitable crops is driving an increasing number of small farmers in kernland off their land and into the cities

这题很搞啊,不明白

是选B吗？因为be foreseen是动词形式，是不是要比not foreseeable好一点呢？ 好像感觉意思上也有些微不同。

这题很搞啊,不明白

这题是选A吗？

题目说的是，高的出口关税限制了腰果只能在国内市场销售。如果拿掉高出口税，那么腰果可以国际市场价销售，更多腰果的农场会从中获得大利润。然而很多腰果的加工厂都在城市里，如果拿掉高出口税，会影响政府对将来5年的城市失业问题的控制。

A说了腰果的生产产出的副产品可以用于其它制造业，也就是说其实其他产业可能会提供出更多的就业机会。

不知道答案对不对。
