19. Some good cooks are gourmet cooks who pride themselves on always using extravagantly rich ingredients in elaborate recipes. Some good cooks can be characterized as fast-food cooks. They may use rich ingredients as long as the recipes are easy to follow and take little time. Other good cooks are health food enthusiasts, who are concerned primarily with the nutritional value of food. But even though not all good cooks are big eaters, they all enjoy preparing and serving food.
If the information in the passage is true, which one of the following CANNOT be true?
(A) Most good cooks do not use extravagantly rich ingredients.
(B) Everyone who enjoys preparing and serving food is a good cook.
(C) More good cooks who use extravagantly rich ingredients are big eaters than are good cooks who do not use such ingredients.
(D) There are fewer good cooks who enjoy serving and preparing food than there are good cooks who are big eaters.
(E) Gourmet cooks, fast-food cooks, and cooks who are health food enthusiasts are all big eaters. 答案是D 我的问题：我认为D和E都对啊！ D的原因是不是：the number of good cooks who enjoy serving and preparing food >=the number of good cooks who are big eaters。对不？ 但是E也不对啊！文中不是说：not all good cooks are big eaters.E中不是说are all big eaters吗！不正好相反吗？那为什么不选E呢？？（抓耳挠腮的搞不懂，呵呵） If the city council institutes new parking regulations, city revenues will surely increase, since studies have conclusively shown that, if such parking regulations are put into effect, there is an increase in parking violations, and an increase in parking violations will result in a greater number of parking fines collected.
22. If the statements in the passage are true, which one of the following must also be true?
(A) Unless there is an increase in the number of parking violations in the city, city revenues will not increase.
(B) If the city council institutes new parking regulations, the council will fall from favor with the citizens.
(C) The city council will institute new parking regulations only if an increase in city revenues can be expected to result.
(D) If the city council’s new regulations cause more parking violators to be ticketed, the city revenues will increase.
(E) Unless the city institutes a complex system of parking regulations, the city cannot expect traffic violations to increase. 答案是：D 我的问题：为什么C不对啊！ 文中的关系不应该是这个样子的吗：regulations put into effect-->increase in violations--->greater number of parking fines--->revenues increase.(应该是这个样子吧！） 而C不就是regulations put into effect-->revenues increase吗？为什么不对！哪里错了啊！ 23. The function of government is to satisfy the genuine wants of the masses, and government cannot satisfy those wants unless it is informed about what those wants are. Freedom of speech ensures that such information will reach the ears of government officials. Therefore, freedom of speech is indispensable for a healthy state.
Which one of the following, if true, would NOT undermine the conclusion of the argument?
(A) People most often do not know what they genuinely want.
(B) Freedom of speech tends ultimately to undermine social order, and social order is a prerequisite for satisfying the wants of the masses.
(C) The proper function of government is not to satisfy wants, but to provide equality of opportunity.
(D) Freedom of speech is not sufficient for satisfying the wants of the masses: social order is necessary as well.
(E) Rulers already know what the people want. 答案是：D 我的问题是:削弱的题用不用搞清楚文中每句话之间的逻辑关系！我现在对这道题的关系只能看到这个程度：government satisfy wants--->know about what those wants are.(这是我能看出来的）Freedom of speech ensures that such information will reach the ears of government officials.(看到这逻辑关系就乱了！不知道这个freedom of speech 该放在哪里？是个什么条件啊）结论：freedom of speech is indispensable for a healthy state.这个freedom of speech应该是a healthy state的必要条件？？？（总之一句话逻辑关系太乱了，以至于看选项的时候没有个方向，完全凭感觉！）
22 文章第一部分将新规则肯定带来REVENUE，第二部分将新规则——犯规——FINE。当中很明显的缺乏桥梁，即FINE多并不一定推出REVENUE也多。 题干已假设题目正确，所以要在FINE/REVENUE间架桥 。D指出MORE TICKET ，MORE REVENUE。 A B C E是无关选项。象C这种选项 如果LSAT做多了 第一眼就可以排除 ，“无关”这是做CR的第一要务。
同意laserlee意见 22 C逻辑关系为an increase in city revenues ->institute new parking regulations 与原文中逻辑关系相反，也就是原文只能推出institute new parking regulations ->fine collected，为了得出结论institute new parking regulations -〉revenue increase 必须架桥fine collected-〉revenue increase。如d
