大全-16-3.      It would cost Rosetown one million dollars
to repair all of its roads. In the year after completion of those repairs,
however, Rosetown would thereby avoid incurring three million dollars worth of
damages, since currently Rosetown pays that amount annually in compensation for
damage done to cars each year by its unrepaired roads.

 

Which
of the following, if true, gives the strongest support to the argument above?

 

(A) Communities bordering on Rosetown also pay
compensation for damage done to cars by their unrepaired roads.

 

(B) After any Rosetown
road has been repaired, several years will elapse before that road begins to
damage cars.

 

(C) Rosetown would need to raise additional taxes if it
were to spend one million dollars in one year on road repairs.

 

(D) The degree of damage caused to Rosetown’s roads by
harsh weather can vary widely from year to year.（B）

 

(E) Trucks cause
much of the wear on Rosetown’s roads, but owners of cars file almost all of the
claims for compensation for damage caused by unrepaired roads.

郁闷，选了e，做的时候不知道怎么就选择了架桥了，
大家讨论下e吧

新东方书里有这道题，当时狒狒还讲过的，e是无关啊！怎么架桥呢？

不看文章,直接做,看完就做题不就不晕了么

偶脑子比较笨,啥也记不住,所以只有拼命写,CR和RC都是,写很多.但是还是很管用,虽然慢了些

建议MM有时间试试

把主干写下来就好了,不一定用前辈NN的方法,找什么关键词,那个是写多了自然就出来了

谢谢队长和mymengming

这招还真没用过，就觉得费时间，好！接下来这么试试！哎，照理说刚20出头这个记性就。。。大家注意补脑啊！

GWD-3-Q32:

Newspaper editorial:

 

In an attempt to reduce the crime rate, the governor is getting tough on criminals and making prison conditions harsher.  Part of this effort has been to deny inmates the access they formerly had to college-level courses.  However, this action is clearly counter to the governor’s ultimate goal, since after being released form prison, inmates who had taken
                such courses committed far fewer crimes overall than other inmates.

文章说释放后,那些以前教育过的人犯罪少,政府否认

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

 

1. Not being able to take college-level courses while in prison is unlikely to deter anyone from a crime that he or she might otherwise have committed.

2. Former inmates are no more likely to commit crimes than are members of the general population.(错误比较对象改变)

3. The group of inmates who chose to take college-level courses were not already less likely than other inmates to commit crimes after being released.

4. Taking high school level courses in prison has less effect on an inmate’s subsequent behavior than taking college-level courses does.(错误比较)

5. The governor’s ultimate goal actually is to gain popularity by convincing people that something effective is being done about crime.[C](无关)

这里的文章中的inmates who had taken
                such courses committed far fewer crimes overall than other inmates.和选项中的inmates who chose to take college-level courses 是不是指的是同一批人?

好久了,这个题目还是有疑问.

还有这里的政府否认college-level courses是监狱里的学历还是逮捕前的?

政府希望用糟糕的监狱环境来使得犯人出去后再也不想重返监狱.

取消在监狱中接受大学教育是政府把监狱环境变得更 harsher的努力之一.

但现实情况却是,在监狱里接受了大学教育的犯人出去后重新犯罪的概率更少.

结论.政府的这个努力是事与愿违的

问ASSUMPTION是什么?

ASSUMPTION是指接受教育的犯人是通过受教育而变得不想犯罪的.也就是说 ,教育是有效的防止重新犯罪的手段.

C的this不可单独使用做代词

A中的it很可能误认为是arm

D中重复sloth避免歧义

但是D中have的时态确实不好,而且sloth, found 应该用限定式,这里是非限定式,不好.

我没看出来哪个好些

A的IT指代不明确吧，为什么不能指代ARM

D中用THE SLOTH才是明确无误的指代吧

我觉得D的现在完成时完全没有理由

白勇说了.原句的时态不能随便改变 除非有明显的时间标志或逻辑上的先后关系.

大伙觉得这个D 有理由这样用吗?

found前面 有个逗号 偶认为是为了表明 found修饰的是fossils而不是sloth

GWD26-04

Consumers planning to buy recreational equipment tend to buy higher quality, more expensive equipment when the economy is strong than when it is weak. Hill and Dale is a business that sells high-quality, expensive camping and hiking equipment in Boravia. Although all the signs are that Boravia’s economy is now entering a period of sustained strength, the managers of the business do not expect a substantial increase in sales.

 

Which of the following, if true, would provide the strongest

justification for the managers’ judgment?

A.     A significant proportion of Hill and Dale’s sales are made to

customers who enter the store in order to buy one particular

item but, once there, find other items to buy as well.

B.     In Boravia when the economy is strong, those who might

otherwise go camping tend to take vacations overseas.

C.     The economic upturn is likely to allow Boravia’s nati-

onal parks, where most of the camping and hiking is

done, to receive extra funding to improve their visitor facilities.

D.     Advances in materials technology have led to the

development of hiking and camping equipment that

is more comfortable and lightweight than before.

E.      Many people in Boravia not only are committed to

preserving the country’s wilderness areas but also

are interested in spending some time in them.

Well, there is a debate over B and C.  Let's vote. I'll appreciate for your participation.
