In the country of Veltria, the past two years' broad economic recession has included a business downturn in the clothing trade, where sales are down by about 7 percent as compared to two years ago. Clothing wholesalers have found, however, that the proportion of credit extended to retailers that was paid off on time fell sharply in the first year of the recession but returned to its prerecession level in the second year. Which of the following, if true, most helps to explain the change between the first and the second year of the recession in the proportion of credit not paid off on time? (A) The total amount of credit extended to retailers by clothing wholesalers increased between the first year of the recession and the second year. (B) Between the first and second years of the recession, clothing retailers in Veltria saw many of their costs, rent and utilities in particular, increase. (C) Of the considerable number of clothing retailers in Veltria who were having financial difficulties before the start of the recession, virtually all were forced to go out of business during its first year. (D) Clothing retailers in Veltria attempted to stimulate sales in the second year of the recession by discounting merchandise. (E) Relatively recession-proof segments of the clothing trade, such as work clothes, did not suffer any decrease in sales during the first year of the recession. 这道题错选了A。 思路如下： 题目问的是为什么在经济不好，衣服卖不动的情况下，第一年零售商还不上钱第二年就能还上了。讲的是零售商还钱的问题。 当时留下的是A,C,D 排除D是因为觉得，即使刺激销售量衣服打折也不能说明能还上钱。可能打折卖1块，纵使家当全卖了也不够。 排除C是因为觉得， 那些本身经济状况就很差的在第一年被淘汰掉以后，剩下的那些没说经济状况如何啊，如果也不咋地，第二年还是得淘汰啊。 A选项当时觉得，即使credit extended，对pay off on time也无太大用处，但最起码跟原文意思接近。所以选了A。

请唐塘老师分析一下这道题，谢谢

想问下may老师什么时候变化率的计算公式 什么时候分母是被减数，什么时候是减数 像这题求时间的变化率分母是距离也就是被减数，但是对于其他年增长之类变化率的分母就是减数，想知道这个区别，谢谢老师

请文静老师解答：老师我读主旨大概总结为：各个政府开出优惠政策来吸引商家只会两败俱伤，这样不会创造更多的就业岗位，只会影响工作的布局。觉得B很核心的反应了文章主旨。因为从文章主旨上读出这样的行为各个政府都不受益只是影响工作布局罢了，那为什么政府还要重点关注E里竞争者开的条件呢？

老师您在讲课的时候把总数设为了a,将有副作用设为y,将有疗效设为了x,那通过条件（1）就可以知道有疗效为0.9a,没有疗效为0.1a,但是是怎么得出“没疗效有副作用”也为0.1a从而结合题设把y用a的式子表示的呢？感觉只能得出T这一栏里“没有疗效”的总数为0.1a哇

[急] 这题七龙珠答案给的C，但是这里的contemporary只能是形容词或者名词，是不是不能直接接在名词后面用？如果这是个硬伤的话，E会不会更好一些呢？

[急] 请问May老师，这里通过连接下面圆的圆心，是不是是不是可以得到r跟b的直接关系，这样选A是不是就可以了呢？

当时老师讲的答案是A。statement 1 sufficient；statement 2 not sufficient。但是我现在不太理解了，觉得答案有些问题，能不能再详细的讲一下这道题怎么做？谢谢！
