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.

Although exposure to asbestos is the primary cause of mesothelioma, a slow-developing cancer, researchers believe that infection by the SV40 virus is a contributing cause, since in the United States 60 percent of tissue samples from mesotheliomas, but none from healthy tissue, contain SV40.  SV40 is a monkey virus; however, in 1960 some polio vaccine was contaminated with the virus.  Researchers hypothesize that this vaccine was the source of the virus found in mesotheliomas decades later.
 
Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the researchers' hypothesis?

The application of a new method for analyzing the chemistry of tooth enamel allows scientists to examine molars of prehuman ancestors and determining that their diets were more varied than had been supposed.
感觉A选项to examine 和determining 不一致 杀 看B选项时，感觉没明显错误，留着。 把C和B比时，貌似C比B更符合句意，觉得C比B好 看D选项，applying的发起者不是the molars，杀 最后剩E，E的句意还不错，但觉得have examined 和determined 不一致，所以最后选了C，结果答案是E，是不是因为C选项的“they applied "和后面的“ their diets "容易引起歧义？请老师解答，谢谢

Editorial:
 
An arrest made by a Midville police officer is provisional until the officer has taken the suspect to the police station and the watch commander has officially approved the arrest.  Such approval is denied if the commander judges that the evidence on which the provisional arrest is based is insufficient.  A government efficiency expert has found that almost all provisional arrests meet standards for adequacy of evidence that watch commanders enforce.  The expert therefore recommends that the watch commander's approval should no longer be required since the officers' time spent obtaining approval is largely wasted.  This recommendation should be rejected as dangerous, however, since there is no assurance that the watch commanders' standards will continue to be observed once approval is no longer required.
 
In the editorial, the two portions in boldface play which of the following roles?
1.根据BOLDFACE题型，判断两句之间的关系，以及两个句子分别于主旨的关系 2.两句间无转折词，第一句“Therefore recommend"为结论句，第二句“REJECT the recommendation”与前一句逻辑关系为相反，且，后面紧随however,+最后一句话，所以，第二句与全文关系相反，第一句与原文关系相关(英吉老师的答疑中说，根据黑体字外的however,判断第二句与第一句为相反关系，我认为很费解，如果是根据第二句的句意判断，可能较为容易理解，对否？) 然后我就选了A···结果答案是完全相反的B，不知道哪里想错了，请纠正

The greatest road system built in the Americas prior to the arrival of Christopher Columbus was the Incan highway, which, over 2,500 miles long and extending from northern Ecuador through Peru to Southern Chile.
做题思路：划线内外的句意较好理解。比较选项时，最早发现CDE中the Incan highway前有逗号，与之前内容有隔开，需要稍让人琢磨这条路与the greatest road system 之间的关系。故除剩CDE,剩AB。A中一致关系不好，B中extended可以和was在句意上保持一致，所以选B。 在答疑录音中，老英说extended是动词，而之前是一个时间短语，所以构不成并列关系，所以你很早就排除了B，你最后剩下的DE，但是我认为extended和再前面的was保持一致也讲得通；老管剩BE比，他认为B中extended不该为主动，故在这点上E比B好。可是E中extending难道不是表示一种主动状态吗？ 疑惑哪点考虑得不合理了，望老师解答。谢谢！ 相关考题（ID 167）： The greatest road system built in the Americas prior to the arrival of Christopher （Columbus was the Incan highway, which, over 2,500 miles long and extending） from northern Ecuador through Peru to Southern Chile.
