以下两题都是GWD本月CRJJ,但是都有争议,请大家帮忙看下,到底哪个选择更好???
7、GWD-28-Q28 Which of the following most logically completes the argument? A certain cultivated herb is one of a group of closely related plants that thrive in soil with high concentrations of metals that are toxic to most other plants. Agronomists studying the herb have discovered that it produces large amounts of histidine, an amino acid that, in test-tube solutions, renders these metals chemically inert. Possibly, therefore, the herb’s high histidine production is what allows it to grow in metal-rich soils, a hypothesis that would gain support if ______. A. histidine is found in all parts of the plant—roots, stem, leaves, and flowers B. the herb’s high level of histidine production is found to be associated with an unusually low level of production of other amino acids C. others of the closely related group of plants are also found to produce histidine in large quantities D. cultivation of the herb in soil with high concentrations of the metals will, over an extended period, make the soil suitable for plants to which the metals are toxic E. the concentration of histidine in the growing herb declines as the plant approaches maturity 答案：E（有争议C） ●Which of the following most logically completes the argument?
A certain cultivated herb is one of a group of closely related plants that thrive in soil with high concentrations of metals that are toxic to most other plants. Agronomists studying the herb have discovered that it produces large amounts of histidine, an amino acid that, in test-tube solutions, renders these metals chemically inert. Possibly, therefore, the herb’s high histidine production is what allows it to grow in metal-rich soils, a hypothesis that would gain support if ______.
A. histidine is found in all parts of the plant—roots, stem, leaves, and flowers
B. the herb’s high level of histidine production is found to be associated with an unusually low level of production of other amino acids
C. others of the closely related group of plants are also found to produce histidine in large quantities
D. cultivation of the herb in soil with high concentrations of the metals will, over an extended period, make the soil suitable for plants to which the metals are toxic
E. the concentration of histidine in the growing herb declines as the plant approaches maturity
我认为选C （有人认为E） 因为第一局说A certain cultivated herb is one of a group of closely related plants that thrive in soil ......说明这一herb只是某group of closely related plants 中的一种plant，而因为后面的从句......that thrive in soil with high concentrations of metals that are toxic to most other plants. 的that显然是就近指代的a group of closely related plants（同时也可由从句谓语thrive为复数形式判断指代对象）。因此，从句描述的性质thrive in soil with high concentrations of metals that are toxic to most other plants应该是这一group of closely related plants都具有的，herb只是举群体中一个个体的例子来证明这一群体的性质。如果能证明群体中其他个体也有此性质，那就会gain support 了
9. GWD-17-Q9 Press Secretary: Our critics claim that the President’s recent highway project cancellations demonstrate a vindictive desire to punish legislative districts controlled by opposition parties. They offer as evidence the fact that 90 percent of the projects canceled were in such districts. But all of the canceled projects had been identified as wasteful in a report written by respected nonpartisan auditors. So the President’s choice was clearly motivated by sound budgetary policy, not partisan politics.
Which of the following is an assumption on which the press secretary’s argument depends?
A. Canceling highway projects was not the only way for the President to punish legislative districts controlled by opposition parties. B. The scheduled highway projects identified as wasteful in the report were not mostly projects in districts controlled by the President’s party. C. The number of projects canceled was a significant proportion of all the highway projects that were to be undertaken by the government in the near future. D. The highway projects canceled in districts controlled by the President’s party were not generally more expensive than the projects canceled in districts controlled by opposition parties. E. Reports by nonpartisan auditors are not generally regarded by the opposition parties as a source of objective assessments of government projects.

D. The highway projects canceled in districts controlled by the President’s party were not generally more expensive than the projects canceled in districts controlled by opposition parties.
E. Reports by nonpartisan auditors are not generally regarded by the opposition parties as a source of objective assessments of government projects. 这题JJ答案给的是B，我当时就感觉应该选D，考试时也选的D 因为原文中已经说 all of the canceled projects had been identified as wasteful in a report，所以B中的mostly我觉得没有什么意义了，因为并不是只有一部分cancel的工程被identified了，而是所有的。 D我感觉是对的，因为它表明在districts controlled by opposition parties，标准更苛刻，被cancel的可能性更大 |
