1. From 1980 to 1989, total consumption of fish in the country of Jurania increased by 4.5 percent, and total consumption of poultry products there increased by 9.0 percent. During the same period, the population of Jurania increased by 6%, in part due to immigration to Jurania from other countries in the region.

if the statements above are true, which of the following must also be true on the basis of them?

A. During the 1980's in Jurania, profits of wholesale distributors of poultry products increased at a great rate than did profits of wholesale distributors of fish.
B. For people who immigrated to Jurania during the 1980's, fish was less likely to be a major part of their diet than was poultry.
C. In 1989 Juranians consumed twice as much poultry as fish.
D. For a significant proportion of Jurania's population, both fish and poultry products were a regular part of their diet during the 1980's.
E. Per capita consumption of fish in Jurania was lower in 1989 than in 1980.

答案是E。題设是鱼产品增加了4.5%，家禽产品增加了9%，然后总人口增加了6%，包括那些移民到Jurania的人。
我选的是B选项：对于那些在80年代移民到Jurania的人来说，他们的日常饮食主要以禽类为主多于鱼类，所以家禽产品的销量才增加的比较快。我认为題设有理由支持这个选项…谁给我一个理由反驳B？E后来仔细看了一下的确应该是对的…

2. 又是一道碰到过好多边只记得答案不记得原因的题目…
Press Secretary: Our critics claim that the president's recent highway project cancellations demonstrate a vindictive desire to punish legislative districts controlled by opposition parties. They offer as evidence the fact that 90 percent of the projects canceled were in such districts. But all of the canceled projects had been identified as wasteful in a report written by respected nonpartisan auditors. So the president's choice was clearly motivated by sound budgetary, not partisan politics.

Which of the following is an assumption on which the press secretary's argument depends?

A. Cancelling high way projects was not the only way for the president to punish legislative districts controlled by opposition parties.
B. The scheduled highway projects identified as wasteful in the report were not mostly projects in districts controlled by the president's party.
C. The number of projects in districts canceled was a significant proportion of all the highway projects that were to be undertaken by the government in the near future.
D. The highway projects canceled in districts controlled by the president's party were not generally more expensive than the projects canceled in districts controlled by opposing parties.
E. Reports by nonpartisan auditors are not generally regarded by the opposition parties as a source of objective assessments of government projects.

答案是B。在这个报道中被认为是浪费的高速公路项目，最多的并不是在总统所在的党派控制的地区。这样岂不是起到加强作用了嘛…

第一题B: 89年这个地方人口构成是原来的人加上80年以后移民来的，原来的人完全可以改变饮食结构多吃禽类阿，而不必非得是移民造成的改变。

第二题B：假设报告中确定的浪费工程的大部分不是执政党的。原文说90%的取消工程是反对党的工程，如果没有B这个假设，也就是说大部分被判为浪费的工程都是执政党的，而执政党却废掉了90%的反对党的工程，说明执政党没按报告处理，就偏向自己了
