Vasquez-Morrell Assurance specializes in insuring manufacturers. Whenever a policyholder makes a claim, a claims adjuster determines the amount that Vasquez-Morrell is obligated to pay. Vasquez-Morrell is cutting its staff of claims adjusters by 15 percent. To ensure that the company’s ability to handle claims promptly is affected as little as possible by the staff cuts, consultants recommend that Vasquez-Morrell lay off those adjusters who now take longest, on average, to complete work on claims assigned to them. Which of the following, if true, most seriously calls into question the consultants’ criterion for selecting the staff to be laid off? (A) If the time that Vasquez-Morrell takes to settle claims increases significantly, it could lose business to other insurers. (B) Supervisors at Vasquez-Morrell tend to assign the most complex claims to the most capable adjusters. (C) At Vasquez-Morrell, no insurance payments are made until a claims adjuster has reached a final determination on the claim. (D) There are no positions at Vasquez-Morrell to which staff currently employed as claims adjusters could be reassigned. (E) The premiums that Vasquez-Morrell currently charges are no higher than those charged for similar coverage by competitors.

如果n是19的话n+1才是20。那a20不是应该等于a19+19吗，为什么会加20呢？条件二给的公式不是说a(n+1)=a(n)+n吗？我算的是1+2+...+19+19这样

@陆旭老师 第39题要怎么做呢？

@唐小梅老师 这道题用您的方法咋做呀？

@英吉老师 第715题的b选项为啥不算说了原文解释的对立面。是不是因为它主要讲的是electricity不是fossil fuel？ e选项这个地方算是要知道的常识吗？因为当时排除掉e选项就是因为自己脑袋里根本没有这个概念，感觉与原文无关。但是一旦听你说了，接受了说这个设定我是能理解的。所以以后再碰到这种不确定的情况，就默认判定这个选项是可行的，然后再去结合文章看是否支持原文逻辑链吗？

@陆旭老师 当出现overlapping info时，应该用matrix比较好还是用韦恩图比较好？

@英吉老师 如果这道题选了a，算是犯了什么错误？

请问老师这道题是不是答案给错了？不应该是4+8+12+...+200求和吗
