 GWD-18-Q38

A survey of entrepreneurs who started companies last year shows that while virtually all did substantial preparatory research and planning, only half used that work to produce a formal business plan.  Since, on average, the entrepreneurs without formal plans secured the capital they needed in half the time of those with plans, these survey results indicate that, in general, formal plans did not help the entrepreneurs who produced them to secure the capital they needed.

 

Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument?

 

1. Companies started by entrepreneurs who had used formal business plans to attract investment were on the whole as profitable in their first year as were companies started by entrepreneurs who had not produced such plans.
2. In surveys of entrepreneurs who have attempted without success to raise sufficient capital, more than half of the respondents indicate that they have produced a formal business plan.
3. Among the entrepreneurs surveyed, those who did not produce formal business plans sought and received a much larger proportion of their capital from investors with whom they had a long-standing business relationship.

4. The entrepreneurs surveyed who did not produce a formal business plan spent nearly as much time doing preparatory research and planning as the entrepreneurs who produced plans.
5. The entrepreneurs who produced business plans generally reported later that the process of writing the plan had increased their confidence that their company would succeed.

答案是C，我选了E：（ 好象E也还可以吧？就说到writing plan的好。那就是hlep了啊，。。。不大明白

 GWD21-Q21:

Which of the following most logically completes the passage?

 

Mastitis is an infection of the udder in cows that, although not dangerous, causes them to give poor-quality milk.  Most cases of mastitis are caused by the bacterium Staphylococcus aureus, against which antibiotics are ineffective.  However, a related bacterium, Staphylococcus simulans, quickly clears up even severe infections of S. aureus simply by displacing the bacteria.  S. simulans is nevertheless unlikely to become the preferred treatment for cases of mastitis, since ______.

 

1. certain dangerous bacteria that normally cannot take hold can do so in the presence of S. simulans

2. the current resistance of S. aureus to antibiotics derives in part from a past pattern of overuse of those antibiotics
3. the milk from cows infected with S. aureus is generally not of such poor quality as to be entirely unusable
4. careful farming practice can reduce the incidence of mastitis to a minimum
5. the only symptom of mild cases of mastitis is the deterioration in the quality of the milk produced。

虽然选对，但是还是问问，A的take hold是什么意思？这句话不是很明白。因为知道结论是跟S simulans有关，只有A说到这个。但是看看了A的意思，如果take hold是控制，好象又说不过去，应该否定才是呀

第一个　题干说有一半的人不写正式的商业计划formal plan照样融资成功好像还更快，结论是正式的商业计划对融资没帮助。

C答案是典型的他因，说不是因为这玩意不管用，而是那写不写计划的人从熟人（以前合作过的）那里借钱，熟门熟路熟面孔，当然不用什么正式的商业计划

第二个take hold是扎根的意思

恩，排除他因。

但是E呢？好象E也可以似的。直接说plan好，那么结论说make plan没帮助就说不过去，那不是削弱的？
