"Researchers observed that male bowerbirds, which are known to build nests before mating, prefer to eat a particular type of fruit. They also noted that these fruits are densely concentrated around the areas where bowerbirds build their nests. Consequently, it was concluded that the bowerbirds are responsible for the high concentration of these fruits in their nesting areas. Which of the following, if true, would most weaken this conclusion?"
A) Bowerbirds are known to be territorial and rarely leave their chosen nesting area.
B) The particular fruit favored by bowerbirds is found in abundance in regions where bowerbirds do not build nests.
C) Male bowerbirds choose nesting sites based on the high concentration of their preferred fruit in those areas.
D) The fruit in question has a natural growth pattern that coincides with the nesting habits of bowerbirds.
E) Other bird species in the same region do not show a preference for the same type of fruit as bowerbirds.

The municipal government of a city, facing inadequate tax revenues which are affecting the development of public amenities, has decided to levy property taxes on non-profit organizations which were previously exempt. This decision might cause some non-profit organizations to close or relocate due to increased financial burden.
Evaluate the decision by choosing the statement that would most weaken the government's position that taxing non-profit organizations will lead to an increase in tax revenue.
A) The property owned by non-profit organizations constitutes a significant portion of the city’s real estate market, and taxing them could lead to a mass relocation, reducing the property value and overall tax income.
B) The presence of non-profit organizations is a key factor for many businesses to operate within the city, and their departure could lead to a reduction in business tax revenue that outweighs gains from taxing non-profits.
C) The non-profit organizations in the city have minimal property holdings, thus the additional revenue from taxing them would be negligible.
D) Many non-profit organizations are already struggling financially, and the imposition of a property tax would lead to their closure, causing a loss of employment and services that would indirectly cost the city more than the potential tax gain.
E) The administrative costs of implementing and collecting the new property tax from non-profit organizations could be higher than the actual revenue generated.

2.RC
Scholars who study the varieties of capitalism posit that fluid labor markets characterized by high levels of openness and potential labor market mobility are one of the defining features of the Anglo-American "variety of capitalism" (Hall and Soskice 2001; Lam 2002). Christopherson (2002b, 17) portrayed this labor market as one in which highly skilled workers serve "as individual technology-transfer agents, moving ideas and techniques from firm to firm." High levels of interfirm career mobility enable the transfer of tacit knowledge and practices, and this rapid circulation of skilled workers in the local labor market is pivotal to supporting high levels of innovation within the region. Silicon Valley epitomizes this dynamic. Researchers have documented the remarkably high levels of interfirm labor market mobility that exist in Silicon Valley, highlighting how this dynamic is reinforced and supported by a wide array of institutions and dense social networks.

Nevertheless, while Silicon Valley may be the quintessential example of how highly skilled workers move from firm to firm, thereby facilitating the transfer of knowledge and practices, the nature of these labor market dynamics may differ qualitatively in other locations. As Lam (2000, 2002) contended, specific macrolevel organizational forms and institutional configurations foster different microlevel labor market practices and paths of career development. For instance, formal education and training systems, as well as professional associations, have a significant bearing on the nature of expertise, and these institutions are inextricably intertwined with labor markets, employment relations, and the development of careers. Occupationally based labor markets may operate differently within different national and regional contexts due to the localized relations upon which they are founded; careers, identity, and reputation are embedded in social and professional networks that are based on shared occupational and regional cultures (Lam 2002).

1. The primary purpose of the passage is to:
A) Highlight the importance of fluid labor markets in fostering innovation
B) Compare and contrast labor market dynamics in different regions
C) Analyze the role of institutions in shaping labor market practices
D) Discuss the influence of social networks on career development
E) Examine the relationship between education and expertise

2. According to the passage, which of the following is true about Silicon Valley?
A) It has low levels of interfirm labor market mobility
B) It is a prime example of fluid labor markets facilitating knowledge transfer
C) Its labor market dynamics are identical to other regions
D) Its success is primarily due to formal education and training systems
E) Its social networks have little impact on labor market mobility

3. The author mentions "formal education and training systems" and "professional associations" to:
A) Illustrate their lack of influence on labor markets
B) Suggest their role in shaping expertise and career development
C) Argue for their standardization across different regions
D) Highlight their importance in fostering innovation
E) Compare their effectiveness in different varieties of capitalism

4. The passage suggests that occupationally based labor markets:
A) Function uniformly across different national and regional contexts
B) Are not influenced by shared occupational and regional cultures
C) Are less important than formal education and training systems
D) May operate differently depending on localized relations
E) Have little impact on career development and reputation

5. According to Lam (2000, 2002), which of the following influences microlevel labor market practices?
A) Macrolevel organizational forms and institutional configurations
B) The rapid circulation of skilled workers in local labor markets
C) The varieties of capitalism in different regions
D) The level of innovation within a region
E) The density of social networks in a given area

6. The author's attitude towards the relationship between labor market dynamics and innovation can be best described as:
A) Skeptical
B) Indifferent
C) Optimistic
D) Ambivalent
E) Critical

7. The passage implies that the transfer of tacit knowledge and practices is:
A) Hindered by high levels of interfirm career mobility
B) Unrelated to the circulation of skilled workers in local labor markets
C) Facilitated by fluid labor markets
D) More important in Silicon Valley than in other regions
E) Not influenced by social and professional networks

8. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage about careers, identity, and reputation?
A) They are independent of social and professional networks
B) They are shaped by shared occupational and regional cultures
C) They are more important in Silicon Valley than in other regions
D) They are not influenced by macrolevel organizational forms and institutional configurations
E) They are unrelated to the development of expertise

Email 1
June 8, 9:23 a.m.
Our firm has been contracted by the Ministry of Education to conduct a nationwide survey assessing university students' attitudes towards online learning. The deadline for receiving completed surveys from the initial batch of 10,000 randomly selected students across 50 universities was yesterday. What is the current response rate, and do we have sufficient data to perform robust statistical analyses? Please advise if we need to expand the sample size to meet the Ministry's expectations.

Email 2
From: Project Lead
To: Research Director
June 8, 10:05 a.m.
As of the deadline, we have received 4,268 completed surveys out of the 10,000 invitations sent. While this 42.68% response rate is in line with our projections based on similar studies, it falls short of the Ministry's target of 8,000 valid responses needed for comprehensive insights across various demographics and regions. To mitigate the risk of an inadequate sample size while optimizing our budget, I propose expanding the invitation pool by 12,000, as our models indicate a 95% likelihood of achieving the 8,000-response threshold with this addition. Each participant who submits a complete survey by the extended deadline will receive the promised ¥50 digital gift card. What is the maximum budget allocated for participant compensation?

Email 3
From: Research Director
To: Project Lead
June 8, 11:37 a.m.
The total budget approved for participant compensation in this University Online Learning Attitudes Survey is ¥500,000. We must honor our commitment to provide the ¥50 digital gift card incentive to each participant from both the initial and expanded sample pools who submit a complete survey before the respective deadlines. However, it is crucial that we manage the sample size carefully to gather sufficient data for meaningful analyses while minimizing the risk of exceeding the allotted budget. Please provide your recommendations on the optimal number of additional invitations to send out, considering both statistical power and financial constraints.

1. Based on the emails, what is the primary concern regarding the initial survey response rate?

第一题，选C，推理题，纯粹巧合或者因果倒置。
P：某鸟在交配前会筑巢，它们更喜欢吃特定类型的水果。他们还指出，这些水果密集地集中在弓鸟筑巢的区域周围。
C：鸟是导致这些水果在其筑巢区高度集中的原因。

A.某鸟具有领地意识，很少离开它们选择的筑巢区.(无关）
B.某鸟喜欢的特殊水果在鸟不筑巢的地区大量发现.(不能削弱）
C.雄性鸟根据它们喜欢的水果在这些地区的高度浓度来选择筑巢地点.(削弱是因为有鸟才有水果的集中，说明先有水果的集中再有鸟，因果倒置）
D.所讨论的水果具有自然生长模式，与弓鸟的筑巢习性相吻合.(鸟喜欢的自然模式，水果也喜欢，依然有关系，不能完全削弱。）
E.同一地区的其他鸟类没有表现出对与弓鸟相同类型水果的偏好.(无关）

第二题，❌选A，答案B。削弱对非盈利组织增税会带来税收增加的结论。
P：税金不够，政府向非盈利组织征税，这样会导致很多非盈利组织关闭和离开。

A.非盈利组织的财富中包含了这个城市的房地产，征税会导致他们转移地方，带来财富价值和整体税收的减少.（直接表明了转移地方导致税金减少）
B.非盈利组织的出现是很多商业在这个城市运行的关键因素，他们的离开会导致商业税收的减少大于征税的所得.(导致税金减少，比A稍微远了一点）
C.非盈利组织在这个城市持有最少的财富，额外的税收会微乎其微.(没说税收不会增加。）
D. 许多非营利组织已经在财务上苦苦挣扎，征收财产税将导致它们关闭，导致就业和服务的损失，这将间接地使城市付出比潜在税收收益更多的代价.(没说对于税收是否增加的影响。）
E.征税的管理费大于征税所得.(没说税金不会增加。）
