1. 新药广告投放与销量
三年前美国政府准许了perception meditation的广告投放,然后发现三年过去大量投放广告的药品销量增加。 结论是这些广告导致了人们主动要求医生来开这些药。 问加强。 比如:人们对于药的认知基本来自于广告,并且信任广告。
【类似题目】It isillegal to advertise prescription medications in Hedland except directly tophysicians, either by mail or in medical journals. A proposed lawwould allow general advertising of prescriptionmedications. Opponents object that the general population lacks thespecialized knowledge to evaluate such advertisements and might ask theirphysicians for inappropriate medications. But since physicians havethe final say as to whether to prescribe a medication for a patient,inappropriate prescriptions would not become more common.
Which of thefollowing would it be most useful to establish in order to evaluate theargument?
(A) Whetheradvertising for prescription medications might alert patients to the existenceof effective treatments for minor ailments that they had previously thought tobe untreatable
(B) Whether somepeople might go to a physician for no reason other than to ask for a particularmedication they have seen advertised
(C) Whether theproposed law requires prescription-medication advertisements directed to thegeneral public to provide the same information as do advertisements directed tophysicians
(D) Whetheradvertisements for prescription medications are currently an important sourceof information about newly available medications for physicians
(E) Whetherphysicians would give in to a patient's demand for a prescription medicationchosen by the patient when the one originally prescribed by the physician failsto perform as desired

2. 收购农业土地
Environmentalorganizations want to preserve the land surrounding the Wilgrinn WildernessArea from residential development. They plan to dothis by purchasing that land from the farmers who own it. That planis ill-conceived: if the farmers did sell their land, they wouldsell it to the highest bidder, and developers would outbid any otherbidders. On the other hand, thesefarmers will never actually sell any of the land, provided that farming itremains viable. But farmingwill not remain viable if the farms are left unmodernized, and most of thefarmers lack the financial resources modernization requires. Andthat is exactly why a more sensible preservation strategy would be to assistthe farmers to modernize their farms to the extent needed to maintain viability.
In the argument asa whole, the two boldfaceproportions play which ofthe following roles?
A. The firstpresents a goal that the argument rejects as ill-conceived; the second isevidence that is presented as grounds for that rejection.
B. The firstpresents a goal that the argument concludes cannot be attained; the second is areason offered in support of that conclusion.
C. The firstpresents a goal that the argument concludes can be attained; the second is ajudgment disputing that conclusion.
D. The firstpresents a goal, strategies for achieving which are being evaluated in theargument; the second is a judgment providing a basis for the argument’sadvocacy of a particular strategy.
E. The firstpresents a goal that the argument endorses; the second presents a situationthat the argument contends must be changed if that goal is to be met in theforeseeable future.
B 正确:D (选B是有点想当然了,作者其实没有下结论无法实现,说的是plan不好,而不是goal。。。我原本想法是这个plan是需要购买土地,但是农民不愿意卖,并且他们没能力保持土地viable,所以plan最终无法实现,但其实没这个结论?当时也没仔细看D,对比下来D是正确的)
