Test A

12. Are you still reading the other newspaper in town? Did you know that the Daily Bugle is owned by an out-of-town business syndicate that couldn’t care less about the people of Gotham City? Read the Daily Clarion, the only real voice of the people of Gotham City!
Which of the following most directly refutes the argument raised in the advertisement above?
(A) Over half of the advertising revenues of the Daily Clarion come from firms whose headquarters are located outside of Gotham City.
(B) The Daily Clarion usually devotes more of its pages to out-of-town news than does the Daily Bugle.
(C) Nearly 40 percent of the readers of the Daily Clarion reside outside the limits of Gotham City.
(D) The editor-in-chief and all the other members of the editorial staff of the Daily Bugle have lived and worked in Gotham City for ten years or more.
(E) The Daily Bugle has been published in Gotham City for a longer time than has the Daily Clarion.

这题的答案是 D。假如是 B 不是更好吗？

The earth’s resources are being depleted much too fast. To correct this, the United States must keep its resource consumption at present levels for many years to come.

14. Which of the following, if true, would most strengthen the argument above?
(A) New resource deposits are constantly being discovered.
(B) The United States consumes one-third of all resources used in the world.
(C) Other countries need economic development more than the United States does.
(D) Other countries have agreed to hold their resource consumption at present levels.
(E) The United States has been conserving resources for several years.

这题的答案是 B。大家看看 D 行不行？

12. I think B is better.

14. D 是无关项。其它国家怎么样跟美国没有关系呀。

The first one has been discussed. I recommend you to make a search.

没错。这道题好像看过。search 了没找着。好像不是用的XDF开头的。

第一题，b，报纸中写的多并不一定就是写的好，人们是要听到real voice，这是关键

第二题，原文说的美国的事情，和其他国家有什么关系啊

14题,大家帮帮手:

The earth’s resources are being depleted much too fast. To correct this, the United States must keep its resource consumption at present levels for many years to come.

14. Which of the following, if true, would most strengthen the argument above?
(A) New resource deposits are constantly being discovered.
(B) The United States consumes one-third of all resources used in the world.
(C) Other countries need economic development more than the United States does.
(D) Other countries have agreed to hold their resource consumption at present levels.
(E) The United States has been conserving resources for several years.

我理解题目的意思为: to correct this(earth’s resources are being depleted much too fast), the US must ..... 如果只有美国keep its resource consumption at present levels, 其他国家不响应, 那也不能correct this呀. 所以D好象要明显一些. 而B讲US消耗1/3, 如果只有1/3被控制的话,这个问题还是不能correct呀.

众位NN请讲一下这题的思路

12题

Test A

12. Are you still reading the other newspaper in town? Did you know that the Daily Bugle is owned by an out-of-town business syndicate that couldn’t care less about the people of Gotham City? Read the Daily Clarion, the only real voice of the people of Gotham City!
Which of the following most directly refutes the argument raised in the advertisement above?
(A) Over half of the advertising revenues of the Daily Clarion come from firms whose headquarters are located outside of Gotham City.
(B) The Daily Clarion usually devotes more of its pages to out-of-town news than does the Daily Bugle.
(C) Nearly 40 percent of the readers of the Daily Clarion reside outside the limits of Gotham City.
(D) The editor-in-chief and all the other members of the editorial staff of the Daily Bugle have lived and worked in Gotham City for ten years or more.
(E) The Daily Bugle has been published in Gotham City for a longer time than has the Daily Clarion.

"couldn’t care less about the people of Gotham City?"是什么意思?不能少关心->很关心,和题目意思相反呀.

这两题我也有疑问，

12题：番茄炒蛋 说人们是要听到real voice，这是关键，但是这和editor-in-chief and all the other members of the editorial staff 在Gotham 住了十几年有什么必然联系嘛？不一定住了十几年就会讲real voice，对嘛？望指点。

14题觉得D好，觉得D并不是无关选项，文中说的是The earth’s resources depleted too fast，这和US的keep its resource consumption at present levels 是乎有距离，何况US也只占1/3，比一定起得到作用啊！

楼上, 对12题:

我同意番茄炒蛋的观点.因为real voice 意味着这份报纸代表people of G-City的观点. 而B,版面不能说明什么问题.

楼上, 你知道"couldn’t care less about the people of Gotham City?"是什么意思吗?

谢了!

couldn’t care less about the people of Gotham City?" 毫不关心？
