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.

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.

Though the law will require emissions testing of all diesel vehicles, from
tractor trailers to excursion buses, it will have no effect on sport utility
vehicles, almost all of which are gasoline powered, and will not be sub-
jected to emissions-control standards as stringent as they are for
diesel-powered vehicles.
这题我想问个问题,希望老师不要打我…almost all of which are gasoline powered 这句话不是个主谓宾完整的句子吗,这句子不是没加连词嘛…为什么可以这么写啊,正常情况不是应该用个不完整的句子来表示修饰前句的vehicles嘛?然后假设我接受了前句确实应该有are,那正确选项里subject如果作为动词的话和and前平行不是应该是don’t subject to,如果作为形容词为什么不加 are 和and前的are平行啊…完全看懵了

如何判断which cause和 causing的修饰对象分别是谁?我觉得which cause修饰的是前面整个,但是tina老师上课说gmat里非限制性定语从句不存在。我觉得causing修饰的是cowpox,因为就近修饰原则。我想请问一下我的思路错在哪里?

求问tina老师,我听了您比较新的一个解答说a选项中的逗号ing的发出者应该是前面的laws,是不是说逗号ing形式的发出者既可以是前句的整句话,也可以是前句主语,也可以是前句从句的主语,和前句从句的整句话呀,可是我又产生了一个疑惑,我之前问过一道题 Among lower-paid workers, union members are less likely than nonunion members to be enrolled in lower-end insurance plans imposing stricter limits on medical services and requiring doctors to see more patients, and spend less time with each.

In an experiment, each volunteer was allowed to choose between an easy task and a hard task and was told that another volunteer would do the other task. Each volunteer could also choose to have a computer assign the two tasks randomly. Most volunteers chose the easy task for themselves and under questioning later said they had acted fairly. But when the scenario was described to another group of volunteers, almost all said choosing the easy task would be unfair. This shows that most people apply weaker moral standards to themselves than to others.

Which of the following is an assumption required by this argument?
