请问May老师,这道题我选了C,是用9×8×1=72算的。看到网上论坛说,还要再乘以一个3,即9×8×1×3=216,因为这三个数字是乱序排列的,我不是太懂。我觉得,用9×8×1已经包含了所有顺序的情况了,而且乘以3是什么意思呢?请老师解答。另外,有没有其他更好理解的方法呢?

Although fullerenes--spherical molecules made entirely of carbon--were first found in the laboratory, they have since been found in nature, formed in fissures of the rare mineral shungite.  Since laboratory synthesis of fullerenes requires distinctive conditions of temperature and pressure, this discovery should give geologists a test case for evaluating hypotheses about the state of the Earth's crust at the time these naturally occurring fullerenes were formed.
 
Which of the following, if true, most seriously undermines the argument?
请教英吉老师,为什么选D,属于哪一种驳斥呢?(我当时觉得D的角度不对,D只是在讲natural form的构成成分,而原文讲的是其生成的环境)

To reduce waste of raw materials, the government of Sperland is considering requiring household appliances to be broken down for salvage when discarded. To cover the cost of salvage, the government is planning to charge a fee, which would be imposed when the appliance is first sold. Imposing the fee at the time of salvage would reduce waste more effectively, however, because consumers tend to keep old appliances longer if they are faced with a fee for discarding them.

Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument?
请教英吉老师,我有点分不清楚:角度不一样和他因驳斥的区别。这道题我选B,当时觉得是他因驳斥,生产商生产更持久的商品,也能够导致waste减少,请问您是怎么看的?如何分清这两者的区别?
