Macrophages are cells that play a role in the response of the immune system of mice and other mammals to invasive organisms such as bacteria.  Unlike other mice, mice that are genetically incapable of making these particular cells do not show elevated levels of nitrates when infected with bacteria.

The statements above, if true, provide the most support for which of the following conclusions?

1. Mice that are unable either to make macrophages or to make them in sufficient numbers will protect themselves from bacterial infections in some other way.



2. Mice that show elevated levels of nitrates can easily fight off most types of bacterial infections.



3. In mice, macrophages play a role in the production of nitrates or inhibit a process by which nitrates are broken down or otherwise eliminated.



4. When a healthy mouse becomes infected with an invasive organism, the number of macrophages in the mouse’s body decreases.



5. Injections of nitrates into mice that lack macrophages will not enhance the ability of these animals’ immune systems to fight off infection.

这题逻辑选什么？我的答案上面是C，3w的答案是D。

Each year red-winged blackbirds stop in a certain region of laceName>MidlandlaceName> laceType>ProvincelaceType> on their spring and fall migration. In the fall, they eat a significant portion of the province’s sunflower crop. This year Midland farmers sought permits to set out small amounts of poisoned rice during the blackbirds’ spring stop in order to reduce the fall blackbird population. Some residents voiced concern that the rice could threaten certain species of rare migratory birds. Nevertheless, the wildlife agency approved the permits.

Which of the following, if true, most helps to justify the wildlife agency’s approval of the permits, given the concern voiced by some residents?

1. In the region where the red-winged blackbirds stop, they are the first birds to be present in the spring.



2. The poison that farmers want to use does not kill birds but rather make them incapable of producing viable eggs.



3. Since rice is not raised in midland province, few species of birds native to the province normally eat rice.



4. Without the permit, any farmers shown to have set out poison for the blackbirds would be heavily fined



5. The poison that farmers got approval to use has no taste or smell that would make it detectable by birds.

这题是3w好像是C，我选的A。

A theory is either true or false. Galileo’s observations of Jupiter’s satellites showed that the Ptolemaic theory of the motion of celestial bodies is false. Therefore, since the Copernican theory of planetary motion is inconsistent with the Ptolemaic account, Galileo’s observations of Jupiter’s satellites proved the truth of the Copernican theory.

The argument above is open to the objection that it makes the questionable assumption that

1. Whoever first observed something inconsistent with the truth of the Ptolemaic theory should be credited with having proved that theory false.



2. There are some possible observations that would be inconsistent with the account given by the Copernican theory but consistent with the account given by the Ptolemaic theory.



3. The Ptolemaic and Copernican theories, being inconsistent, cannot both be based on exactly the same evidence



4. Numerous counterexamples were necessary in order to show the Ptolemaic theory to be false



5. The Ptolemaic and Copernican theories, being inconsistent, cannot both be false.

T-3-Q2.

As the honeybee’s stinger is heavily barbed, staying where it is inserted, this results in the act of stinging causing the bee to sustain a fatal injury.

1. As the honeybee’s stinger is heavily barbed, staying where it is inserted, this results in the act of stinging causing
   



2. As the heavily barbed stinger of the honeybee stays where it is inserted, with the  result that the act of stinging causes
   



3. honeybee’s stinger, heavily barbed and staying where it is inserted, results in the fact that the act of stinging causes
   



4. the heavily barbed stinger of the honeybee stays where it is inserted, and results in the act of stinging causing
   



5. the honeybee’s stinger is heavily barbed and stays where it is inserted, with the result that the act of stinging causes

这题我选C的。我觉得C没有什么问题。有人说heavily那部分不是插入语，因为去掉以后就句子不通了，我不同意。这里的heavily去掉后，句子是

honeybee’s stinger results in the fact that the act of stinging causes the bee to sustain a fatal injury. 这样我觉得也是通的。因为后面写了the act of stinging是导致bee sustain a fatal injury的原因。 这样，heavily就可以是插入语，解释下为什么honeybee的stinger会产生这样的结果。

E很不好的地方是让我觉得非常awkward。with结构表达的意思是非常模糊的。到底是act是result，还是sting result了。读着特别别扭。

谢谢3w把天山3的答案贴了一下。我手上的答案对下来错了很多，和你的一对，又对了两题。但是无法和GWD24的正确率比了。估计我就是这个水平了，很难再上升。

这个我也选C,但是3w和tania都说是E

T3-5 B,tania帖子里有,我被她们俩给说服了

选E，关键是那个both，因为题目已经说了Ptolemaic是错的，又说一个理论要么对要么错，加上E——不可能两个都错，就可以推出Copernican是正确的

我现在逻辑最衰了，速度慢而且正确率低，而且因为每次读逻辑题都很费时间，我怕来不及，所以经常读到一个选项觉得是对的就不往下看了，结果一对答案，错一堆，其实正确答案也很明显，只是因为放在了后面，前面的选项又很具迷惑性，哎，痛苦

语法讨论：

10th OG-110：

It has been estimated that the annual cost to the United States of illiteracy in lost industrial output and tax revenues is at least $20 billion a year.

(A)the annual cost to the United States of illiteracy in lost industrial output and tax revenues is at least $20 billion a year

(B)the annual cost of illiteracy to the United States is at least $20 billion a year because of lost industrial output and tax revenues

(C)illiteracy costs the United States at least $20 billion a year in lost industrial output and tax revenues

(D)$20 billion a year in lost industrial output and tax revenues is the annual cost to the United States of illiteracy

(E)lost industrial output and tax revenues cost the United States at least $20 billion a year because of illiteracy

In choices A, B, and D, the combined use of annual and a year is redundant. Choices A, D, and E are awkward and confused because other constructions intrude within the phrase cost... of illiteracy: for greatest clarity, cost should be followed immediately by a phrase (e.g., of illiteracy ) that identifies the nature of the cost. Choice E is particularly garbled in reversing cause and effect, saying that it is lost output and revenues rather
than illiteracy that costs the United States over $20 billion a year. Choice B is wordy and awkward, and idiom requires in rather than because of to introduce a phrase identifying the constituents of the $20 billion loss. Concise, logically worded, and idiomatic, choice C is best.
