GWD13（第六套）的逻辑题目：求助

Q14:

Political Advertisement:

 

Mayor Delmont’s critics complain about the jobs that were lost in the city under Delmont’s leadership.  Yet the fact is that not only were more jobs created than were eliminated, but the average pay for these new jobs has been higher than the average pay for jobs citywide every year since Delmont took office.  So there can be no question that throughout Delmont’s tenure the average paycheck in this city has been getting steadily bigger.

 

Which of the following, if true, most strengthens the argument in the advertisement?

 

1. The average pay for jobs created in the city during the past three years was higher than the average pay for jobs created in the city earlier in Mayor Delmont’s tenure.
2. Average pay in the city was at a ten-year low when Mayor Delmont took office.
3. Some of the jobs created in the city during Mayor Delmont’s tenure have in the meantime been eliminated again.
4. The average pay for jobs eliminated in the city during Mayor Delmont’s tenure has been roughly equal every year to the average pay for jobs citywide.
5. The average pay for jobs in the city is currently higher than it is for jobs in the suburbs surrounding the city.

标准答案是C，但是我觉得应该是B。

Critics claim – job lost

Fact against claim –

1. More jobs created than eliminated

2. Average pay is increasing

Conclusion from PA: Number X Amount = bigger paycheck

So if the income level was the lowest in the ten years when MD took office, it strongly indicate that the income level will go up.

Q15:

Capuchin monkeys often rub their bodies with a certain type of millipede.  Laboratory tests show that secretions from the bodies of these millipedes are rich in two chemicals that are potent mosquito repellents, and mosquitoes carry parasites that debilitate capuchins.  Some scientists hypothesize that the monkeys rub their bodies with the millipedes because doing so helps protect them from mosquitoes.

 

Which of the following, if true, provides the most support for the scientists’ hypothesis?

 

1. A single millipede often gets passed around among several capuchins, all of whom rub their bodies with it.
2. The two chemicals that repel mosquitoes also repel several other varieties of insects.
3. The capuchins rarely rub their bodies with the millipedes except during the rainy season, when mosquito populations are at their peak.
4. Although the capuchins eat several species of insects, they do not eat the type of millipede they use to rub their bodies.
5. The two insect-repelling chemicals in the secretions of the millipedes are carcinogenic for humans but do not appear to be carcinogenic for capuchins.

and this one, the key is E. I don't understand. Can someone help? Thanks a lot!

5.8号考试，复习初期OG做过一遍，正确率不错，超过80%，后来看了OG的错题解释又做了几套新东方绿皮书，正确率超过90%。于是对于逻辑就掉以轻心。现在模考GWD，发现当初做逻辑的感觉全都没有了，做FF的逻辑宝典正确率（30min 18题目）只有60%。心中非常焦急。希望高人或者过来人帮助我答疑解惑。谢谢。

MM，

第一题，他问的是average paycheck 越来越大，所以有两种可能性，分母变小，or分子变大

第二题，问题很重要，他问你provides the most support for the scientists’ hypothesis?

假设是说C用millipede. rub their bodies 是因为millipede可以驱蚊，那么支持的应该说，millipede对C是无害的，如果有害，C就无法用它来驱蚊。

我觉得那个D干扰选项

The second one: I see. Thanks a lot!

The first one: Avg. paycheck =total spend/Number of people; which means if No. of people decreased then the Avg. paycheck may increase.

不是吧，这道题选D呀。

A说earlier in Mayor Delmont’s tenure和结论throughout Delmont’s tenure 无关

B说when Mayor Delmont took office和结论无关

C说新的工作产生了又消失了，那么也就没什么影响

D正确答案，说消失的工作工资等于平均水平，结合文章中average pay for these new jobs has been higher than the average pay 正好说明平均工资上升

E中 in the suburbs surrounding the city偷换区域和结论无关

难道说这道题改选C了？请牛人指点

Q14...   是D, 应该没错的.

文中的结论是说paycheck大大地提高,  答案中得涉及到钱这个东西.

答案C,一,没涉及到钱. 二,要说有关系的话,我认为是削弱. C说到,新创造的工作又被裁减掉. 失业率就高, 从而支持了文中第一句的jobs that were lost .  

 而且some这个词,太模糊了, 说加强吧, 没什么力度,削弱吧,又有点加强
