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。

这道题感觉像是要找规律，但还是没有思路，想请教一下老师，谢谢

麻烦唐瑭老师解答一下～这道题在做的时候我其实问题有点没读懂，就读了最后一句，然后提取出来的关键点是在讲tax一直在征收but汽油的税收没有增加，只有CE选项提到的汽油，但是C在讲汽油进口是新东西，所以我选了E。想麻烦老师解释一下正确选项C，再告知一下这道题应该看哪句话。谢谢～

这道题答案选E但我选了D，难道这里的land不是动词然后intact不应该用副词吗？求解答谢谢！

麻烦唐瑭老师解答一下～这道题我做对了，但是没太懂，我定位了最后一句，感觉在讲maize和monarch butterfly之间的关系。没太读懂各选项，但只有C提到了这两个东西，所以选了C。麻烦老师讲解一下～

请王文静老师回答一下这个问题，谢谢！具体疑惑附在图二了

麻烦唐瑭老师解答一下～这道题看了题目后我没有回看题干，想问一下题目是不是在说利润增涨和涨价没有关系？我选了D，正确答案C，麻烦老师讲一下CD，谢谢～

这道题选E，我错选了D，请唐瑭老师讲解一下这种类型的题该怎么写？必须看完全文吗？怎么对比选项？希望老师把方法讲得详细一点，谢谢！

请王文静老师解答一下，谢谢1.不太会判断ACD（C是因为the magazines’…consumption to convince…money无法作主语？D是因为with不好所以排除？2. 感觉后半段“出版者说服R地中产去花钱是内政主要部分”和破折号之前部分的句意并列不了

老师我想问一下这道题，从6b=ab不是可以推出a=6吗，有点懵，求解答谢谢老师！

这道题答案选A，请问老师怎么用A推出来呀？我自己总感觉虽然能确定四个数的大小，但是比值大小不太确定
