1，The imposition of quotas limiting imported steel will not help the big American steel mills.In fact, the quotas will help "mini-mills" flourish in the United States.Those small domestic mills will take more business from the big American steel mills than would have been taken by the foreign steel mills in the absence of quotas.



Which of the following, if true, would cast the most serious doubt on the claim made in the last sentence above?



(A) Quality rather than price is a major factor in determining the type of steel to be used for a particular application.

(B) Foreign steel mills have long produced grades of steel comparable in quality to the steel produced by the big American mills.

(C) American quotas on imported goods have often induced other countries to impose similar quotas on American goods.

(D) Domestic "mini-mills" consistently produce better grades of steel than do the big American mills.

(E) Domestic "mini-mills" produce low-volume, specialized types of steel that are not produced by the big American steel mills.选E



2，The recent decline in the value of the dollar was triggered by a prediction of slower economic growth in the coming year.But that prediction would not have adversely affected the dollar had it not been for the government's huge budget deficit, which must therefore be decreased to prevent future currency declines.



Which of the following, if true, would most seriously weaken the conclusion about how to prevent future currency declines?



(A) The government has made little attempt to reduce the budget deficit.

(B) The budget deficit has not caused a slowdown in economic growth.

(C) The value of the dollar declined several times in the year prior to the recent prediction of slower economic growth.

(D) Before there was a large budget deficit, predictions of slower economic growth frequently caused declines in the dollar's value.

(E) When there is a large budget deficit, other events in addition to predictions of slower economic growth sometimes trigger declines in currency value.选D

我今天晚上刚刚弄懂第3题：

that prediction would not have adversely affected the dollar had it not been for the government's huge budget deficit这是条件状语从句虚拟语气的倒装，意思是，如果没有政府的巨额赤字，the prediction就不会影响dollar，所以答案是在没有政府赤字的时候，一样影响
