Q10和Q14，我的答案不一样，讨论如下：
Question 10:
Environmentalist:The use of snowmobiles in the vast park north of Milville creates unacceptable levels of air pollution and should be banned.
Milville business spokesperson: Snowmobiling brings many out-of-towners to Milville in winter months, to the great financial benefit of many local residents. So, economics dictate that we put up with the pollution.
Environmentalist:I disagree: A great many cross-country skiers are now kept from visiting Milville by the noise and pollution that snowmobiles generate.
Environmentalist responds to the business spokesperson by doing which of the following?
A.Challenging an assumption that certain desirable outcome can derive from only one set of circumstances
B.Challenging an assumption that certain desirable outcome is outweighed by negative aspects associated with producing that outcome
C.Maintaining that the benefit that the spokesperson desires could be achieved in greater degree by a different means
D.Claiming that the spokesperson is deliberately misrepresenting the environmentalist’s position in order to be better able to attack it
E.Denying that an effect that the spokesperson presents as having benefited a certain group of people actually benefited those people
我选E. 理由如下：
spokesperson认为snowmobiles通过brings many out-of-towners to Milville in winter months为当地居民带来financial benefit, 但Environmentalist却认为由于空气污染，使得A great many cross-country skiers are now kept from visiting Milville，所以，认为其实snowmobiles根本没有给当地居民带来好处，这就是E所说的：Denying that an effect that the spokesperson presents as having benefited a certain group of people actually benefited those people.
B: 对“某个希望的结果被产生这个结果的负面作用超过”的假设提出挑战，我觉得spokesperson的说话中没有这个假设，所以不对。

Q14:
Smithtown University’s fund-raisers succeeded in getting donations from 80 percent of the potential donors they contacted. This success rate, exceptionally high for university fund-raisers, does not indicate that they were doing a good job. On the contrary, since the people most likely to donate are those who have donated in the past, good fund-raisers constantly try less-likely prospects in an effort to expand the donor base. The high success rate shows insufficient canvassing effort.
Which of the following, if true, provides more support for the argument?
A.Smithtown University’s fund-raisers were successful in their contacts with potential donors who had never given before about as frequently as were fund-raisers for other universities in their contacts with such people.
B.This year the average size of the donations to Smithtown University from new donors when the university’s fund-raisers had contacted was larger than the average size of donations from donors who had given to the university before.
C.This year most of the donations that came to Smithtown University from people who had previously donated to it were made without the university’s fund-raisers having made any contact with the donors.
D.The majority of the donations that fund-raisers succeeded in getting for Smithtown University this year were from donors who had never given to the university before.
E.More than half of the money raised by Smithtown University’s fund-raisers came from donors who had never previously donated to the university.
我选A。理由如下：
题中说，S大学的募捐人员从联系的捐款者中得到捐款的比例是80%，而C说大部分捐款都是来自已经捐过款的人，并且募捐人员没有跟这些人联系，这样说明募捐者联系的人大多是以前没有捐过款的人，在这些人中获得这么高比例的成功率说明他们的募捐非常有效，所以这样反而是削弱了结论。
A说：S大学的募捐人员通过联系从没有捐过款的人得到捐款的概率与其他大学的募捐者差不多，这样就说明S大学的募捐人员联系的人当中，已经捐过款的人的比例比较高，所以才造成总体的募捐成功率比较高，这样就加强了结论。

楼主
ublicly available records indicate that Yorco employs roughly the same number of such hourly wage workers as Zortech does but spends a far higher total sum per year on wages for such workers. Therefore, hourly wages must be higher, on average, at Yorco than at Zortech, since _____.
