题目:

In the year following an eight-cent increase in the federal tax on a pack of cigarettes, sales of cigarettes fell ten percent.  In contrast, in the year prior to the tax increase, sales had fallen one percent.  The volume of cigarette sales is therefore strongly related to the after-tax price of a pack of cigarettes.
 
The argument above requires which of following assumptions?

选项:

A、During the year following the tax increase, the pretax price of a pack of cigarettes did not increase by as much as it had during the year prior to the tax increase.
B、The one percent fall in cigarette sales in the year prior to tax increase was due to a smaller tax increase.
C、The pretax price of a pack of cigarettes gradually decreased throughout the year before and the year after the tax increase.
D、For the year following the tax increase, the pretax price of a pack of cigarettes was not eight or more cents lower than it had been the previous year.
E、As the after-tax price of a pack of cigarettes rises, the pretax price also rises.

The skeptics mentioned in the first paragraph would be most likely to agree with the astronomers mentioned in the highlighted text about which of the following statements concerning the galaxy M87?
看了题目之后,发现题目是问skeptics的观点,因此找到对应的第一段后面。通过阅读那句话,发现说S那群人说concerntration能够解释the speed of the whirling gas 并不是黑洞,而后面冒号引出的M87刚好与题目所问对应,所以就集中精力看这一句(包括冒号的,因为冒号提到了M87)。看完之后看选项,觉得由于skeptics的重点说那东西不是黑洞,而且说M87怎么着了,就只有B沾边的,所以就选了B。想问一下老师,我这样子定位错在哪里了呢?为什么完全找不到答案呢? 文章 Astronomers theorize that a black hole forms when a massive object shrinks catastrophically under its own gravity, leaving only a gravitational field so strong that nothing escapes it. Astronomers must infer the existence of black holes, which are invisible, from their gravitational influence on the visible bodies surrounding them. For example, observations indicate that gas clouds in galaxy M87 are whirling unusually fast about the galaxy's center. Most astronomers believe that the large concentration of mass at the galaxy's center is a black hole whose gravity is causing the gas to whirl. A few skeptics have argued that the concentration of mass necessary to explain the speed of the whirling gas is not necessarily a black hole: the concentration in M87 might be a cluster of a billion or so dim stars. The same hypothesis might have been applied to the galaxy NGC 4258, but the notion of such a cluster's existing in NGC 4258 was severely undermined when astronomers measured the speed of a ring of dust and gas rotating close to the galaxy's center. From its speed, they calculated that the core's density is more than 40 times the density estimated for any other galaxy. If the center of NGC 4258 were a star cluster, the stars would be so closely spaced that collisions between individual stars would have long ago torn the cluster apart. 题目:The skeptics mentioned in the first paragraph would be most likely to agree with the astronomers mentioned in the highlighted text about which of the following statements concerning the galaxy M87? A.The speed of the gas whirling around the center of M87 is caused by a dense object that is not a black hole. B.The concentration of mass at the center of M87 is probably a large cluster of dim stars. C.The presence of a black hole at the center of M87 is the most likely explanation for the speed of the gas whirling about the galaxy's core. D.The speed of the gas whirling around the center of M87 is caused by a large concentration of mass at the core of M87. E.The gravitational influence of a star cluster would not be strong enough to account for the speed of the gas whirling around the core of M87.

Manatees, aquatic mammals inhabiting Florida's rivers and coastal waters, swim close to the surface and are frequently killed in collisions with boats.  To address the problem, boat traffic in manatee-populated waters is being required to maintain very low speeds.  Unfortunately, manatees are unable to hear low-pitched sounds and a boat's sound lowers in pitch as the boat slows.  Therefore, this approach may in fact make things worse rather than better.

In parts of the Caribbean, the manatee, an endangered marine mammal, has long been hunted for its meat.  Having noted the manatee hunters' expert knowledge of manatees' habits, local conservationists are encouraging the hunters to stop hunting and instead to take tourists on boat rides to see manatees.  Tourist interest is high, so the plan has promise of achieving the twin goals of giving the former hunters a good income and helping ensure the manatees' survival.
 
Which of the following, if true, raises the most serious doubt about the plan's chance of success?
读完文章后感觉说了以下的事情:M这东西长期被猎人捕食。政府鼓励猎人别捕食M了,改为带游客去看它。这个计划一方面可以让猎人有一个好的收入的同时确保M的生存。 A是说游客不愿给猎人所have to charge for boat rides的钱,而E是说猎人需要换更大的船,感觉上A更直接削弱(收入方面)。想请问一下老师这思维过程哪里出错了,同时,这样子读是读句子了吗?还是我依然陷入了读单词的陷阱?谢谢。

In 1981 children in the United States spent an average of slightly less than two and a half hours a week doing household chores; by 1997 they had spent nearly sixhours a week.
老师不是说要对动词有足够敏感吗?而在B选项中的had grown是过去完成时,表达过去的过去。而在OG中有提到,用过去完成时需要有明显的时间先后顺序。因此,当时我认为虽然B从结构上更加对称,但是从意思上说,had grown却变成了在spent之前了,这从意思上说就不对了,因此就排除了B。所以想请问一下管老师,按照新方法来说,究竟应该分析动词的时态吗?
