1.In the past, most children who went sledding in the winter snow in Verland used wooden sleds with runners and steering bars. Ten years ago, smooth plastic sleds became popular; they go faster than wooden sleds but are harder to steer and slow. The concern that plastic sleds are more dangerous is clearly borne out by the fact that the number of children injured while sledding was much higher last winter than it was ten years ago.Which of the following, if true in Verland, most seriously undermines the force of the evidence cited? A. A few children still use traditional wooden sleds. B. Very few children wear any kind of protective gear, such as helmets, while sledding. C. Plastic sleds can be used in a much wider variety of snow conditions than wooden sleds can. D. Most sledding injuries occur when a sled collides with a tree, a rock, or another sled. E. Because the traditional wooden sled can carry more than one rider, an accident involving a wooden sled can result in several children being injured. C,适用范围广了,injuries自然就多了,削弱更危险这一说法,迷惑选项B,取非后发现没有削弱,过去和现在孩子都可以带或者不带防护装置,属于无关选项 补充:Platics 和 traditioanl 那题换了一个答案选项 选现在拥有slade的小孩的比例比十年前多…. 2.nvestment banks often have conflicting roles. They sometimes act for a client company by raising capital from other investment institutions as advantageously as possible, but their analysts also sometimes send unfavorable reports on the financial health of companies for whom they are raising capital to other clients who wish to make investments. Analyses of companies’ financial health need to be unbiased if an investment bank is to achieve long-term success.If the statements above are true, which of the following practices, if adopted by an investment bank, would hinder its long-term success? A. Evaluating and rewarding the bank’s analysts on the basis of recommendations made by managers who are solely engaged in raising capital for clients B. Using reports by the investment bank’s analysts to determine how best to raise capital for a client C. Sharing the task of raising capital for a client with other investment banks D. Ensuring that conflicts between analysts and those who raise capital for clients are carefully mediated and resolved by impartial arbitrators E. Monitoring the success or failure of analysts’ current predictions about how companies will perform financially, in order to determine the value of future predictions A 原文说投行一方面要帮助一些客户公司吸引投资,一方面又要帮助一些客户选择好的投资目标。这样投行要长久发展就必须unbiased. a.说对银行分析师的评估奖励是根据专门从事吸引投资的经理的推荐,那么显然会产生biased.因为分析师们为了赢得好的评价会迎合该经理的口味,在分析需要吸引投资的公司的财务时可能会biased.所以a对。b无关,c,d,e是有助于长期发展。 3. 有一题Prep上海狮海豹的那个 In the late 1980s, the population of sea otters in the North Pacific began to decline. There are two plausible explanations for the decline: predation, possibly by killer whales, or disease. Of these two, disease is the more likely, since a concurrent sharp decline in populations of seals and sea lions is believed to have been caused by disease, and diseases that infect these creatures are likely to be able to infect sea otters also. Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the reasoning? (A) Killer whales in the North Pacific usually prey on seals and sea lions but will, when this food source is scarce, seek out other prey. (B) There is no indication that the sea otter population at any North Pacific location declined in the 1980s because of substantial numbers of sea otters migrating to other locations. (C) Along the Pacific coast of North America in the 1980s, sea otters were absent from many locations where they had been relatively common in former times. (D) Following the decline in the population of the sea otters, there was an increase in the population of sea urchins, which are sea otters' main food source. (E) The North Pacific populations of seals and sea lions cover a wider geographic area than does the population of sea otters. A,污染病导致海象和海狮(这两个鲸的主食)都死了,鲸就开始吃别了了(如海獭),提出另外一个造成sea otters 减少的可能原因,从而造成sea otters 的began to decline,削弱了作者的结论—disease is the more likely 此文考题不一样,临场机动 也是问weaken的, 可是本来是答案的A没有了, 用了别的句子, 其他几个选项都有, 只有那个是跟whales有关的,所以我就选那个了. 4.The total market value of real estate in Altonville has steadily declined over the past four years. This decline has meant that the overall figure on which the city’s property tax is based—the assessed value of that real estate—has also declined. The percentage of assessed value that was paid as property taxes to the city, however, did not change from year to year during this period. The information above most strongly supports which of the following? a.The percentage of Altonville’s yearly revenue that comes from money collected in property taxes did not change over the past four years. b.The percentage of Altonville’s yearly revenue that comes from money collected in property taxes has declined steadily over the past four years. c.The amount of revenue that Altonville collected from property taxes was lower last year than it was four years ago. c.During the past four years, Altonville officials increased tax rates on other sources of revenue such as retail sales and business profits. d.Altonville will soon require property owners to pay a higher percentage of the assessed value of their property as property tax. C Compare with an old edition of this question listed below. There are many tiny changes in the main body of the question and its answer choices. The total market value of real estate in Altonville has steadily declined over the past four years. This decline has meant that the overall figure on which the city’s property tax is based—the assessed value of that real estate—has also declined. Moreover, the percentage of assessed value that was paid as property taxes to the city did not change during this period. The information above most strongly supports which of the following? a.Money collected from property taxes provided most of Altonville’s revenue during the past four years. b.The percentage of Altonville’s overall revenue that was collected from property taxes did not change over the past four years. c.Altonville officials had proposed raising property tax rates during the past four years but never did so because of strong opposition from property owners. d.The total amount of revenue that Altonville has collected from property taxes has declined over the past four years. e.During the past four years, Altonville officials also did not increase tax rates on other sources of revenue such as retail sales or business profits. D 5. 一題GWD是貨幣政策.問WEAKEN.因為那個國家的出口商的產能已經最大了 In 1983 Argonia’s currency, the argon, underwent a reduction in value relative to the world’s strongest currencies. This reduction resulted in a significant increase in Argonia’s exports over 1982 levels. In 1987 a similar reduction in the value of the argon led to another increase in Argonia’s exports. Faced with the need to increase exports yet again, Argonia’s finance minister has proposed another reduction in the value of the argon. Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the prediction that the finance minister’s plan will not result in a significant increase in Argonia’s exports next year? A) The value of the argon rose sharply last year against the world’s strongest currencies. B) In 1988 the argon lost a small amount of its value, and Argonians exports rose slightly in 1989. C) The value of Argonia’s exports was lower last year than it was the year before. D) All of Argonia’s export products are made by factories that were operating at full capacity last year, and new factories would take years to build. E) Reductions in the value of the argon have almost always led to significant reductions in the amount of goods and services that Argonians purchase from abroad. D 6.Gortland has long been narrowly self-sufficient in both grain and meat. However, as per capita income in Gortland has risen toward the word average, per capita consumption of meat has also risen toward the world average, and it takes several pounds of grain to produce one pound of meat. Therefore, since per capita income continues to rise, whereas domestic frain production will not increase, Gortland will soon have to import either grain or meat or both. 7.(1)某公司发觉medical insurance的价格很高,因为员工趋向于用更贵的知名品牌的药,而不是比较便宜而他们需要的药。因此打算指定一个新政策,规定员工如果一定要named brand 的药的话,就要自己支付高出的金额。但导致的结果反而可能是insurance的价格更高。问下面哪个是strengthen。 (2)那些给员工买医疗保险的公司基本上都买金额不足,立法的人就想要规定买保险一定要买足额。问为啥达不到效果:我选 因为那些公司可能索性就不买了。 8.一个boldface题,题目原文大致这样:某地的bear今年要挨饿了。这些熊是以某种pine的seeds为生的。这个季节的天气非常适合森林里某些虫子的生长,而这些虫子会大量破坏pine seed的生长。 4.某中疾病A(很长的名字,有缩写,这里姑且叫A)是生长在牛的身体下某个部位的,会影响奶牛产奶质量。而另一种B(很长的名字,也有缩写)是可以分泌一种enzyme来杀死A的。而A不能通过注射antibody来治愈。因此考虑给affected的牛们注射B。 题目问:上述文字建立在下列哪个assumption上?我选了答案,因为注射B不能使牛们对A免疫。 9.(1)说水处理工厂一般通过杀菌来处理水, 但是这样细菌中的DNA是杀不掉的, 有一个病(记不清了),一般杀菌对他没啥用,为了防止这个病,要改进提高杀菌之类的。 问可以推出啥, 我选的是这个病可以通过DNA传播。 (2)水中的bacteria被殺死以後DNA還會留在水裡,然後說bacteria越來越有抗藥性,這種抗藥性可以經由DNA在不同種的細菌中傳播。大概是這個意思,記不完全了 最後選所以為了大眾健康,應該把水中殘留的DNA也destroy 10.养狗可以让人们经常溜狗,增加运动,从而减轻精神压力和降血压,一地区有很多人养狗,为什么那个地区人的压力很大,血压很高? 我选的是:养狗只有对那些会经常溜狗,增加运动的人才有减轻精神压力和降血压的效果。 11.(1)有一道题我拿不准,是砍树的。说为了保护森林,一个城市要求砍树的公司不能把log从公路运出来必须用直升机运出来,因为修公路毁坏场地。哪个weaken它 我选的是用“直升机运也要毁坏场地”,另外一个拿不准的没选的是“过去10年,这个城市要求修路不能毁坏场地已经取得了明显的效果”。 (2) 直升机采木头,我也选了那个说直升机运也要clear an area near the tree。 12.在多数国家中,金属制造业消耗的energy最大,比如英国、巴西之类,在美国,是采用coal做能源来生产金属的。美国的金属产量在某年大幅上升,而相比其他国家而言,它的coal消耗量却还是比较低,问下面哪项可以解释原因。我选了,因为其他国家的交通运输能源也大量依靠coal,而美国不是。 13.说一个国家的烟草有domestic和foreign的,几年前政府不许外国烟草打广告,现在这个禁止解除了,外国烟草公司猛打广告,但销量仍然没有上升。问加强,我选国内烟草公司也猛打广告 14. 说一项试验,让实验者选择屏幕上出现的词是褒义还是贬义。但是如果在词出现之前先给是贬义的那个词做个解释,那么实验者的反应速度就会变慢。所以,给贬义词作解释会deter实验者的反应。问假设,我选不是任何出现在屏幕的任何解释都deter反应 commendatory 褒义 the derogatory sense 贬义 15.倒数第二道是黑脸题,当时就崩溃。说一个city出台了个新政策导致犯罪率下降。反对者说并不一定是政策导致犯罪率下降,因为在实施之前这个city的犯罪率就下降了,并且某地没实施这个政策犯罪率也下降了。但是,当这个政策在全国实施时,怎么怎么样,crime decline followed. 16.Boldface,“有批评者说一个什么L开头的戏剧不尊重原著,表演明显过分现代化。但,这个戏其实是尊重原著的,因为虽然某主要演员有现代化的表演,但他也同时承袭了古意大利的表演风格。” 17.老题,飞机上装电话能赚钱,但现在用移动电话的人很多,用机载电话的人少了。不过航空公司保持这些电话仍然是受益的,因为电话的维护之类的都是电话公司承担。问assumption。我选这些电话的重量不会大到对飞机的油耗产生重大影响。 18.空气中的过敏原能引起人过敏。调查显示,最近这几年空气质量保持不变,过敏原的密度也没有增加,但过敏的人却越来越多。问原因。我选过敏原的种类多了。 19.填空题,过去十年某地出台了一系列措施让汽车安装安全气囊,安全带,什么的。又说统计表明因交通事故住院的数量明显降低,是因为_____。我选医院进行了改革,提高了住院的标准。 20."puffin"这个词的来源问题,具体问什么忘了 puffin 善知鸟 |
