一个国外的GMAT 论坛。 里面好像有新题

mgq

所以我就得D是最好的答案，但是并不正确

第一题选C是不正确的，学生和学校的关系搞错了，正确的应该是学校是老板，学生是顾客，学校是为学生服务的，学生没有义务为学校做出贡献，而原题中labor明显是为公司服务的

第2题，我改变选择，E是对的。

第1题，我认为不用把highly skilled作为一个必须对应的因素来考虑。因为以although引导的句子，它的意思核心是it must be recognized....,而although引导的分句只是为后面的转折起铺垫作用。

4楼的题，In 1980, a Danish ten-øre coin minted in 1747 was sold at auction for $8,000，因为是was，所以1980肯定是过去的时间点了。

When she puts it on the market next week, it will fetch a price over $18,000.
will fetch是将来时。

所以题目implied的时间是现在，而不是1980。

第二题那个论坛上的答案也是倾向于E  再来一题。

The only purpose for which a particular type of tape is needed is to hold certain surgical" wounds closed for ten days—the maximum time such wounds need tape. Newtape is a,new brand of this type of tape. Newtape's salespeople claim that Newtape will improve healing because Newtape adheres twice as s long as the currently used tape does.

Which of the following statements, if true, would most seriously call into question the claim made by Newtape's salespeople?

(A) Most surgical wounds take about ten days to heal.
(B) Most surgical tape is purchased by hospitals and clinics rather than by individual surgeons.
(C) The currently used tape's adhesiveness is more than sufficient to hold wounds closed for ten days.
(D) Neither Newtape nor the currently used tape adheres well to skin that has not been cleaned.
(E) Newtape's adhesion to skin that has been coated with a special chemical preparation is only half as good as the currently used tape's adhesion to such coated skin.
这题我在C E 之间考虑 倾向于C。E似乎扯得有点远：a special chemical preparation is only half as good as the currently used在原文没有提及

呵呵，请问LS第1题有正确答案吗？

14楼的题我也选C

jesuiscjj

毫无疑问14楼选C

推理题，粘贴时间比普通胶带多一倍 推出 比普通胶带更有利于伤口愈合

关键词 时间有关事项

只须证明普通胶带粘贴时间已经超过伤口愈合天数即可

mgq

第一题选C

jesuiscjj

再看了一遍题目，发现自己理解错了

ask for a ride是邀请一起乘坐的意思吧

我理解成了邀请一起规划了

D错了

回16楼：

厉害！看来我是不可能把CR练到你这种境界了，继续学习去。。。

再来一题

Insect infestations in certain cotton-growing regions of the world have caused dramatic increases in the price of cotton on the world market. By contrast, the price of soybeans has long remained stable. Knowing that cotton plants mature quickly, many soybean growers in Ortovia plan to cease growing soybeans and begin raising cotton instead, thereby taking advantage of the high price of cotton to increase their income significantly,
at least over the next several years.

Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the plan’s chances for success?

A. The cost of raising soybeans has increased significantly over the past several years and is expected to continue to climb.

B. Tests of a newly developed, inexpensive pesticide have shown it to be both environmentally safe and effective against the insects that have infested cotton crops.

C. In the past several years, there has been no sharp increase in the demand for cotton and for goods made out of cotton.

D. Few consumers would be willing to pay significantly higher prices for cotton goods than they are now paying.

E. The species of insect that has infested cotton plants has never been known to attack soybean plants.

这一题我用排除法：由于原文是要weaken the plan that the gower's income will increase,因此必定会有影响income的元素 而且和cotton有关

A 提及到cost irrelevent

B 这个应该是support吧

C 无关吧（原文信息中无法推断出过去的信息）

D明显会影响收入 correct

E无关
