[Critical Reasoning]

试题详情

题目:

According to the Tristate Transportation Authority, making certain improvements to the main commuter rail line would increase ridership dramatically. The authority plans to finance these improvements over the course of five years by raising automobile tolls on the two highway bridges along the route the rail line serves. Although the proposed improvements are indeed needed, the authority's plan for securing the necessary funds should be rejected because it would unfairly force drivers to absorb the entire cost of something from which they receive no benefit.
Which of the following, if true, would cast the most doubt on the effectiveness of the authority's plan to finance the proposed improvements by increasing bridge tolls?

选项:

A、Before the authority increases tolls on any of the area bridges, it is required by law to hold public hearings at which objections to the proposed increase can be raised.
B、Whenever bridge tolls are increased, the authority must pay a private contractor to adjust the automated toll-collecting machines. 
C、Between the time a proposed toll increase is announced and the time the increase is actually put into effect, many commuters buy more tokens than usual to postpone the effects of the increase. 
D、When tolls were last increased on the two bridges in question, almost 20 percent of the regular commuter traffic switched to a slightly longer alternative route that has since been improved.
E、The chairman of the authority is a member of the Tristate Automobile dub that has registered strong opposition to the proposed toll increase.

答案:

D

提问:

英老师,这道题我刚开始选的B,但review的时候发现自己发散了,发散成了 private contractor 可能很贵,减少了政府对于proposed improvement的投资。 但是D选项说的是 the last 上一次增加tolls会怎么样,我觉得过去的事情与现在实施这个计划无关。 麻烦老师解答一下~谢谢!
