以下是引用tania在2005-9-17 18:15:00的发言：

在看04年9月cr jj ,发现这道题跟上面那个有些类似，大家讨论

63. 得哮喘的人中，超过95％还得另外一种病P。但是得P的人中，又得了哮喘的比例将低于95％，因为_______  这题有点搞，我可能是选错了。选项有：哮喘比P更普遍；哮喘比P更严重；得了两种病的人比只得一种病的人数量要大……

我觉得是不是可以这样理解,设交叉部分为A，列式如下：A/哮喘>95%；A/P<95%

由一式得，哮喘<A/95％；由二式得，P>A/95%;所以推出哮喘<,正确选项应该是P比哮喘更普遍

同意，但是上面那道题好像真的有问题

把这道老题目再拿出来炒一炒：

GWD-5-Q30:

GWD-11-Q12:

Which of the following most logically completes the argument?

The irradiation of food kills bacteria and thus retards spoilage.  However, it also lowers the nutritional value of many foods.  For example, irradiation destroys a significant percentage of whatever vitamin B1 a food may contain.  roponents of irradiation point out that irradiation is no worse in this respect than cooking.  However, this fact is either beside the point, since much irradiated food is eaten raw, or else misleading, since _______.

1. many of the proponents of irradiation are food distributors who gain from food’s having a longer shelf life



2. it is clear that killing bacteria that may be present on food is not the only effect that irradiation has



3. cooking is usually the final step in preparing food for consumption, whereas irradiation serves to ensure a longer shelf life for perishable foods



4. certain kinds of cooking are, in fact, even more destructive of vitamin B1 than carefully controlled irradiation is



5. for food that is both irradiated and cooked, the reduction of vitamin B1 associated with either process individually is compounded

我现在怎么觉得E更好了呢？？大家觉得呢？？

还有几道语法题，实在拿不准得，想听听大家意见

GWD-7-40:

Since February, the Federal Reserve has raised its short-term interest rate target five times, and because of the economy’s continued strength, analysts have been predicting for weeks that the target will be raised again in November.

because of the economy’s continued strength, analysts have been predicting for weeks that the target will

with the economy’s strength continuing, analysts predicted for weeks that the target

because the economy continues strong, analysts predicted for weeks that the target would

due to the economy’s continued strength, analysts have been predicting for weeks that the target

due to the fact of the economy’s continued strength, analysts predicted for weeks that the target will
这道题大家选什么？？我选A

我也选了A的，但是网上倾向于C。 我的疑问：C里面的continues后面可以直接用strong这个形容词吗？我的语感老是觉得应该是continues to be strong。但是A的because of不算是ETS prefer的一种形态。除此之外，economy's strength我觉得没有问题，后面的时态也可以的。will感觉比would要好些。

我觉得还是应该选C，刚刚查了strength 得用法：

▶HYSICAL◀
[uncountable]the physical power and energy that makes someone strong

觉得好像主要还是指人的力量吧，economy's strength 好像不太好，而且中间还有一个continued，看着怪怪得，C主要是时态比较烦，不过中间有一个and 链接两个句子，倒是允许前后使用不同的时态，而且如果用了predited，后面用would也就理所应当了，所以综合看，还是觉得选C

F672、673、674：

AGREE！！

F675：

DISAGREE！！

strength(from Longman)：

▶ORGANIZATION/COUNTRY ETC◀
[uncountable] the political, military, or economic power of an organization, country, or system

for weeks提示用进行时，况且没有任何提示用过去时

tania

又搜了一下google，ustoday里面也有have been predicting 的用法，而且国外讨论这道题得网站上也没人对economic's continued strengthen的用法提出置疑，google里也有，所以我改投A啦

天山-9-12

Ecoefficiency (measures
to minimize environmental
impact through the reduction
Line or elimination of waste from
(5) production processes) has
become a goal for companies
worldwide, with many realizing
significant cost savings from
such innovations. Peter Senge
(10) and Goran Carstedt see this
development as laudable but
suggest that simply adopting
ecoefficiency innovations could
actually worsen environmental
(15) stresses in the future. Such
innovations reduce production
waste but do not alter the number
of products manufactured
nor the waste generated from
(20) their use and discard; indeed,
most companies invest in ecoefficiency
improvements in
order to increase profits and
growth. Moreover, there is
(25) no guarantee that increased
economic growth from ecoefficiency
will come in similarly
ecoefficient ways, since in
today’s global markets,
(30) greater profits may be turned
into investment capital that
could easily be reinvested
in old-style eco-inefficient
industries. Even a vastly
(35) more ecoefficient industrial
system could, were it to grow
much larger, generate more
total waste and destroy more
habitat and species than would
(40) a smaller, less ecoefficient
economy. Senge and Carstedt
argue that to preserve the
global environment and sustain
economic growth, businesses
(45) must develop a new systemic
approach that reduces total
material use and total accumulated
waste. Focusing
exclusively on ecoefficiency,
(50) which offers a compelling
business case according
to established thinking, may
distract companies from
pursuing radically different
(55) products and business
models.

Q12:
The passage implies that which of the following is a possible consequence of a company’s adoption of innovations that increase its ecoefficiency?

A. Company profits resulting from such innovations may be reinvested in that company with no guarantee that the company will continue to make further improvements in ecoefficiency.

B. Company growth fostered by cost savings from such innovations may allow that company to manufacture a greater number of products that will be used and discarded, thus worsening environmental stress.

C. A company that fails to realize significant cost savings from such innovations may have little incentive to continue to minimize the environmental impact of its production processes.

D. A company that comes to depend on such innovations to increase its profits and growth may be vulnerable in the global market to competition from old-style ecoinefficient industries.

E. A company that meets its ecoefficiency goals is unlikely to invest its increased profits in the development of new and innovative ecoefficiency measures.

MINE A

ANS B

请指教

12题我觉得B不对，B的定位在这句话：
Such innovations reduce production waste but do not alter the number
of products manufactured nor the waste generated from their use and discard
不改变number并不能推出number变大啊

A的定位在这句话：
Moreover, there is no guarantee that increased economic growth from ecoefficiency will come in similarly ecoefficient ways, since in today’s global markets, greater profits may be turned into investment capital that could easily be reinvested in old-style eco-inefficient industries.
A就是对上面这句话的改写，further没问题吧，表示“更多的”，跟similarly没什么冲突，更何况前面还有no guarantee

支持A

我现在怎么觉得E更好了呢？？大家觉得呢？？

恩，我一直选E的。我觉得C从来没有对过。

tania

首先，题目要求是imply possible consequence所以不会和原文一样，应该是从原文中推出来得

其次，Company profits resulting from such innovations may be reinvested in that company with no guarantee that the company will continue to make further improvements in ecoefficiency.这里前后两个company是指的一个company，意思是公司自己获利再投资于公司自己，但不保证会。。。。，所以与原文内容也不一样。

我同意B，这是一个可能得结果，因为公司首先不会减少，其次文中还出现公司生产的废物越来越多，也可以推出这个结果。
