GWD-6-14，GWD-6-16

爱维，你又偏了。C说的什么是产生了又被消灭了，和你说的是相反的！并且，你的假设根本不支持结论。什么低于啊。如果低于，结论就不对了！

但我怎么觉得a会好一点呢？希望各位指点

它不是说钱提高了，a支持了这个观点阿

zhaoshujuanw

我也觉得是,A

D!

强烈支持D!

只要下岗的人的原有工资<=原先的average水平，那么这些人员的下岗对于average paycheck数值的增加是有利的。同时文中的条件给出新增加职位的工资水平都高于average paycheck，所以最后得出那个文中给出的结论也是合乎常理。

对不？

我也选A——在认真考虑过D后。

argument：new jobs数目大于eliminated jobs，且平均工资高，所以市长任期内平均paycheck稳步上涨。

D说每年jobs eliminated的工资等于平均数。但即使高于，只要new job的工资 > eliminated job的工资，conclusion还是成立的。所以，并不strengthen

A说市长任职后期的new jobs的平均工资比任职前期的高，所以strengthen argument。

偶也是A

选D

(1)Yet the fact is that not only were more jobs created than were eliminated,

假设eliminate掉了10个工作被，新增了100个工作，符合条件more jobs created than were eliminated

(2)but the average pay for these new jobs has been higher than the average pay for jobs citywide every year since Delmont took office

设国家内其他地方的平均工资为50，本地新增工作的平均工资为60，符合上面条件

有可能出现下面情况：设被eliminate掉工作的人都是高薪人员，工资为1000

则10×1000＝10，000>(100×60＝6000)，工资总额下降，平均工资下降

只有D

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.

可以排除这种情况

即：被eliminate掉的人的薪水和新增工作的薪水差不多，都是60

这时候（100－10）×60才是总工资的增加额，平均工资才是增加的。

我选A.

我觉得选C的是不是把Mayor Delmont’s critics认为是问题中的argument 了. 问题中的argument应该是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.

Political Advertisement:

complain about the jobs that were lost in the city under Delmont’s leadership.  

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.

偶选D，开始选的A

推理稍微有点复杂，但思路很简单

新增工作多与丢失的工作；新增工作工资高于平均共资=>每年总的平均工资是增长的

GAP就是关于丢失工作的工资

A：无关比较；要注意结论是什么；结论是说D的任期内怎么怎么…；跟上任相比是无意义的

B：无关

C：有一些新增的工作同时又丢失了；其实这对原文结论产生不了影响；文中说“the average pay for these new jobs has been higher than the average pay for jobs citywide ”，不管你这些新的工作是怎么产生的，反正新工作的工资比平均水平要高；C好像想从前提里面作文章，但无效

D：丢失的工作工资与每年平均工资水平持平，那就排除他因削弱

E：城市郊区比较，out of scope
