3. GWD25-Q3.
Mel: The official salary for judges has always been too low to attract the best candidates to the job. The legislature’s move to raise the salary has done nothing to improve the situation, because it was coupled with a ban on receiving money for lectures and teaching engagements.
Pat: No, the raise in salary really does improve the situation. Since very few judges teach or give lectures, the ban will have little or no negative effect.
Pat’s response to Mel is inadequate in that it
A. attempts to assess how a certain change will affect potential members of a group by providing evidence about its effect on the current members.
B. mistakenly takes the cause of a certain change to be an effect of that change
C. attempts to argue that a certain change will have a positive effect merely by pointing to the absence of negative effects
D. simply denies Mel’s claim without putting forward any evidence in support of that denial
E．assumes that changes that benefit the most able members of a group necessarily benefit all members of that group
再看这道题其实可以通过排除来选出答案~~这个题目和写作的argument好像哇
Plantings of cotton bioengineered to produce its own insecticide against bollworms, a major cause of crop failure, sustained little bollworm damage until this year.This year the plantings are being seriously damaged by bollworms.Bollworms, however, are not necessarily developing resistance to the cotton’s insecticide.Bollworms breed on corn, and last year more corn than usual was planted throughout cotton-growing regions.So it is likely that the cotton is simply being overwhelmed by corn-bred bollworms.
In evaluating the argument, which of the following would be most useful to establish?
A.Whether corn could be bioengineered to produce the insecticide
B.Whether plantings of cotton that does not produce the insecticide are suffering unusually extensive damage from bollworms this year
C.Whether other crops that have been bioengineered to produce their own insecticide successfully resist the pests against which the insecticide was to protect them
D.Whether plantings of bioengineered cotton are frequently damaged by insect pests other than bollworms
E.Whether there are insecticides that can be used against bollworms that have developed resistance to the insecticide produced by the bioengineered cotton
这道逻辑题，就算是自己去做错后去想也要想半天，真正考试的话，更怕想不过来呀
还有32题，是在第三篇阅读后，一段时间看不进去，就随便点了个，现在再想就想通了 |
