GWD15-19
Aroca City currently funds its public schools through taxes on property.  In place of this system, the city plans to introduce a sales tax of three percent on all retail sales in the city.  Critics protest that [three percent of current retail sales falls short of the amount raised for schools by property taxes].  The critics are correct on this point.  Nevertheless, implementing the plan will probably not reduce the money going to Aroca’s schools.  Several large retailers have selected Aroca City as the site for huge new stores, and these are certain to draw large numbers of shoppers from neighboring municipalities, where sales are taxed at rates of six percent and more.  In consequence, [retail sales in Aroca City are bound to increase substantially].

In the argument given, the two potions in boldface play which of the following roles?

A.  The first is an objection that has been raised against a certain plan; the second is a prediction that, if accurate, undermines the force of that objection.
B.  The first is a criticism, endorsed by the argument, of a funding plan; the second is a point the argument makes in favor of adopting an alternative plan.
C.  The first is a criticism, endorsed by the argument, of a funding plan; the second is the main reason cited by the argument for its endorsement of the criticism.
D.  The first is a claim that the argument seeks to refute; the second is the main point used by the argument to show that the claim is false.
E.  The first is a claim that the argument accepts with certain reservations; the second presents that claim in a rewarding that is not subject to those reservations.

答案是D, A错在哪里？

BF本来就很难。听说这个BF只占CR的5%，必须是进入高分区间才能有的。A不对，因为第二个划线句根本不是prediction.而是conclusion.由in consequence带出来

哎，就不能说点鼓励的话阿？

我来鼓励狗叔叔吧。
我也要纠正大家一个误区
bf并不是高分库里的
有很多750+大牛并没有在考试中遇到，也有一些分数不理想的童鞋在十道题遇到bf题型
考试重视会有测试题的。。。。
在考试中就不要纠结到底是高分的还是低分的了
认认真真做好每一道是王道

恩。。bf的确和高分没有必然联系的~~
