I think the Q1 should note that the car equips the radar detector to avoid the tickets....I wouldn't make a mistake here if the question provides this background info...

GMAC treat the purpose of a radar detector as a common sense in the same way it treats that of a toothbrush.

The higher the level of certain vitamins and minerals in the bloodstream, the better a person's lung function, as measured by the amount of air the person can expel in one second. The lung function of smokers is significantly worse, on average, than that of nonsmoker. Clearly, therefore, one way for smokers to improve their lung function is for them to increase their intake of foods that are rich in these helpful vitamins and minerals.

Which of the following is an assumption on which this argument depends?

A) Smokers are less likely than nonsmokers to have diets that are rich in vitamins and minerals
B) The lung function of smokers whose diet are rich in those vitamins and minerals is generally better than that of nonsmokers with comparable diets
C) People whose diets are deficient in those vitamins and minerals do not typically have other health problems in addition to diminished lung function.
D) Stopping smoking will not typically improve lung function more than any diet changes can.
E) Smoking does not introduce into the body chemicals that prevent the helpful vitamins and minerals from entering the bloodstream

Anyone what to try the negation method on this question and find the correct answer?

I think the answer is E.  If I make a mistake, please correct me~~

If negate E, we get:"Smoking DOES  introduce into the body chemicals that prevent the helpful vitamins and minerals from entering the bloodstream". In this case, even though the smokers intake foods that are rich in vitamins and minerals, these chemicals will prevent the V/Ms from entering the bloodstream, and V/Ms become no use. Then the conclusion is impossible to achieve.

Try this question:

The U.S. census is not perfect: thousands of Americans probably go uncounted. However, the basic statistical portrait of the nation painted by the census is accurate. Certainly some of the poor go uncounted, particularly the homeless; but some of the rich go uncounted as well, because they are often abroad or traveling between one residence and another.

Which of the following is an assumption on which the argument above depends?

(A) Both the rich and the poor have personal and economic reasons to avoid being counted by the census.
(B) All Americans may reasonably be classified as either poor or rich.
(C) The percentage of poor Americans uncounted by the census is close to the percentage of rich Americans uncounted.
(D) The number of homeless Americans is approximately equal to the number of rich Americans.
(E) The primary purpose of the census is to analyze the economic status of the American population.

My answer for the U.S. census problem: C

I guess the "the basic statistical portrait" means the proportion of each group to the entire population, or something close...
