Q11:

In general, jobs are harder to get in times of economic recession because many businesses cut back operations.  However, any future recessions in Vargonia will probably not reduce the availability of teaching jobs at government-funded schools.  This is because Vargonia has just introduced a legal requirement that education in government-funded schools be available, free of charge, to all Vargonian children regardless of the state of the economy, and that current student-teacher ratios not be exceeded.

 

Which of the following, if true, most strengthens the argument?

 

1. The current student-teacher ratio at Vargonia’s government-funded schools is higher than it was during the most recent period of economic recession.

2. During recent periods when the Vargonian economy has been strong, almost 25 percent of Vargonian children have attended privately funded schools, many of which charge substantial fees.

3. Nearly 20 percent more teachers are currently employed in Vargonia’s government-funded schools than had been employed in those schools in the period before the last economic recession.

4. Teachers in Vargonia’s government-funded schools are well paid relative to teachers in most privately funded schools in Vargonia, many of which rely heavily on part-time teachers.

5. During the last economic recession in Vargonia, the government permanently closed a number of the schools that it had funded.

想不通B，为什么C不行

Q38:

Outbreaks of Rift Valley fever occur irregularly in East Africa, several years apart.  When outbreaks do occur, they kill thousands of cattle.  A livestock vaccine against the disease exists but is rarely used.  It is too expensive for farmers to use routinely, and since it is not effective until a month after vaccination, administering it after an outbreak begins helps very little.  Nevertheless, experts predict that use of the vaccine will increase significantly within the next few years.

 

Which of the following, if true, provides the strongest justification for the experts’ prediction?

 

1. Rift Valley fever is spread by mosquitoes, but each outbreak is so widespread that it is impractical to control it by using insecticides.

2. When an outbreak of Rift Valley fever occurs, unaffected countries often refuse to import livestock from the countries affected by the outbreak.

3. It would take less than a month for producers of the vaccine to adjust their production operations to cope with a large increase in demand.

4. Many cattle farmers in East Africa are nomadic or live in remote villages, and such farmers, who have little access to modern veterinary medicine, are particularly hard hit by outbreaks of Rift Valley fever.

5. Recently published research has shown that certain identifiable climatic conditions are almost invariably followed, within two to five months, by an outbreak of Rift Valley fever.

不明白为什么是E,

“it is not effective until a month after vaccination, administering it after an outbreak begins helps very little”， if we can predict the break time of the fever and use the vaccine a month before the break time, it will be surely support the experts' prediciton. So the climatic conditions will be the prediction and as long as the climatic conditions comes out, we can take the vaccine at least two months before the fever's break out.

B现在不是recession,很学生上收钱多得学校,到了resession时,这些人也许没钱上那些学校就回到政府办的不收费学校,这些公办学校的老师怎么会失业呢

你需要知道谁follow 谁

我模拟的时候就是没看清楚

直接当无关了

疫苗最大的毛病是，爆发后1个月才起作用

如果4，5个月前知道，早点吃就没事了

这是削弱

以前老师少都砍了，现在比以前多了20% 不更是有问题？

我也错了，我当时脑袋里想的是事实加强

后来觉得不对，这是一种基于现在情况的预测。预测是不能以现在情况来说话的

另外，注意文中里面说的是 the ratio of students and teachers does not excess

光说老师的数，甚至可以看作无关
