T9 (XY13)

 

1. A: The action “Yield” is executed by “relaxation”.

 

2. E:  Argument: the action will reduce the urban unemployment.

          In order to weaken the argument, the decrease of urban population is necessary.

 

          A: Irrelevant, B: Irrelevant, C: Irrelevant, D: Irrelevant

 

3. B: The first sentence leads to the “adoption of not using titles”, the 2^nd sentence presents evidence that the it is necessary to “use titles”.

        

  

4. D: The argument says “The cigarette sales is strongly related to the after-tax price.”

         Pay attention to the “After-tax”, it is the sum of pre-tax price and tax. If tax increases by 8cent, but pre-tax price drops more than 8 cent, then the after-tax price decreases rather than increases. So we can not get the conclusion.

       

Reading- Edison’s adversary-Westinghouse

 

This article is about Westinghouse. First paragraph is about the majority view about him.(neglect)

The second paragraph is the author’s view on him.  (Praise)

 

5. E: Provide a new perspective on Westinghouse.

      

         A: this is not theory, and before there were no controversial.

         B, C: Irrelevant

         D: Not compare, the analysis from the author is new.

6.  C: Pay attention to “Innovations”

 

7.  C: The answer is controversial, but I prefer C. The original sentence: “This comparative neglect of Westinghouse is consistent with other recent historians’ works, although it marks an intriguing departure from the prevailing view during the inventors’ lifetimes”. The first cause of this sentence is addressed, so it means it is the same as recent view, but it is different from the view of previous generations. So I choose C.

 

8.  D: The argument is “the important medieval trade between North Africa and East Africa began at this period.”  So all showing the trade began before that period is the right choice here.

15. E.   B and C are wrong, since we must use “whether”,  D is not correct, objective clause use “Whether” rather than “Whether,,or not,,”. A is wrong, conflicts result, not conflicts results. So choose E. (It seems some other people’s answer is A, please explain)

 

16.  B:     C, D and E are wrong, D (Doing,, and noun.,,) E(Doing,, as well as noun.) C (noun,, and doing,,) A, as well as can not link them, and “since robert” dose not make sense. so B is correct.

 

17.  A:         B, C: tense is wrong. D: incomplete E: wrong meaning.

 

18.  E:   Argument: people who spend more time on computers will reduce time on TV since their free time is occupied by computer activities.

 

19. A:   The argument depends on which assumption.

       Argument: local catch decreased by 9000, so the illegal catch 9000.

       Catchable number= legal catch +illegal catch. the decreased on legal catch 9000 is compensated by the illegal catch since the catchable number is unchanged.
