9. Astronauts who experience weightlessness frequently get motion sickness. The astronauts see their own motion relative to passing objects, but while the astronauts are weightless their inner ears indicate that their bodies are not moving. The astronauts’ experience is best explained by the hypothesis that conflicting information received by the brain about the body’s motion causes motion sickness.
Which one of the following, if true, provides the strongest additional support for the hypothesis above?
(A) During rough voyages ship passengers in cabins providing a view of the water are less likely to get motion sickness than are passengers in cabins providing no view.
(B) Many people who are experienced airplane passengers occasionally get motion sickness.
(C) Some automobile passengers whose inner ears indicate that they are moving and who have a clear view of the objects they are passing get motion sickness.
(D) People who have aisle seats in trains or airplanes are as likely to get motion sickness as are people who have window seats.
(E) Some astronauts do not get motion sickness even after being in orbit for several days.
为什么是A呀？
10. In order to pressure the government of Country S to become less repressive, some legislators in Country R want to ban all exports from R to S. Companies in R that manufacture telecommunication equipment such as telephones and fax machines have argued that exports of their products should be exempted from the ban, on the ground that it is impossible for a country to remain repressive when telecommunication equipment is widely available to the population of that country.
Which one of the following is an assumption on which the argument given by the manufacturers depends?
(A) The government of S has recently increased the amount of telecommunication equipment it allows to be imported into the country.
(B) The telecommunication equipment that would be imported into S if the exemption were to be granted would not be available solely to top development officials in S.
(C) A majority of the members of R’s legislature do not favor exempting telecommunication equipment from the ban on exports to Country S.
(D) Of all exports that could be sent to Country S, telecommunication equipment would be the most effective in helping citizens of S oppose that country’s repressive government.
(E) Without pressure from Country R, the government of S would be able to continue repressing its citizens indefinitely.
我选d，因为如果telecommunication equipment 不是the most effective ，那country 就不会exempt他，而去exempt其他most effective ，答案是b。

为什么是A呀？

答案：A
思路：搭桥法，建立A与B的联系。仔细读题可知：这种运动性疾病是由于大脑接受了不同的矛盾的信息。有两个信息源：一个来自内耳（静止），一个来自眼睛（运动）。
选项中只有A,C,D涉及这样两个信息源。
A指出接受两种不同的信息较容易获得运动性疾病比起获得两种一致的信息。C：虽有两种信息，但两者是一致的（都是运动的）。
C,D：指出接受两种一致的信息较容易获得运动性疾病比起获得两种不同的信息。与题目的例子相反。所以只有A是正确选项。

我选d，因为如果telecommunication equipment 不是the most effective ，那country 就不会exempt他，而去exempt其他most effective ，答案是b。

D的确是一个迷惑项。
这里有两个理由可以推反他：
1。 厂商的理由为：on the ground that it is impossible for a country to remain repressive when telecommunication equipment is widely available to the population of that country。 D只是表明了他在oppose that country’s repressive government. 方面最有效，但是不是其证据所基于的假设。（即使其成立，该国政府可以对其封杀吗）因此，可以排出。
2.D翻了一个SCOPE SHIFT的逻辑错误。厂商的结论是CANNOT  remain repressive。而D选项却引申为oppose that country’s repressive ！这可是截然不同的两个观点亚。因此，也可以排出。

第10题的b选项怎么翻译？

liflyy

如果进口到S国的电信设备得到解除不许进口的禁令，这些设备不会只被上层官员控制。
如果被上层控制了，就不可能WIDELY AVAILABLE TO POPULATION，注意B中SOLY AVAILABLE和结论相对应。
