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.

Tiger beetles are such fast runners that they can capture virtually any nonflying insect. However, when running toward an insect, a tiger beetle will intermittently stop and then, a moment later, resume its attack. Perhaps the beetles cannot maintain their pace and must pause for a moment’s rest; but an alternative hypothesis is that while running, tiger beetles are unable to adequately process the resulting rapidly changing visual information and so quickly go blind and stop.

Which of the following, if discovered in experiments using artificially moved prey insects, would support one of the two hypotheses and undermine the other?

For years the beautiful Renaissance buildings in Palitito have been damaged by exhaust from the many tour buses that come to the city. There has been little parking space, so most buses have idled at the curb during each stop on their tour, and idling produces as much exhaust as driving. The city has now provided parking that accommodates a third of the tour buses, so damage to Palitito’s buildings from the buses’ exhaust will diminish significantly.

Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the argument?

Guillemots are birds of Arctic regions. They feed on fish that gather beneath thin sheets of floating ice, and they nest on nearby land. Guillemots need 80 consecutive snow-free days in a year to raise their chicks, so until average temperatures in the Arctic began to rise recently, the guillemots’ range was limited to the southernmost Arctic coast. Therefore, if the warming continues, the guillemots’ range will probably be enlarged by being extended northward along the coast.

Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument?

It can be inferred from the passage that both Tulving and Clayton would agree with which of the following statements?
请教Tina老师,此题我选了D,我当时认为既然人类的是episodic memory,动物的是episodic-like memory,那么人类收集的信息当然比动物要好,(而且,Tulving并没有涉及或参与animal的实验,所以选项中,重点是写动物的我都排除了,即排除了ABC),所以选了D。另外, 我每次做agree类的题都很容易错,很难定位,不知道要去找哪一方的观点,还是两方都看…请问有什么方法可以解决吗?

 If the proposed expenditures for gathering information abroad are reduced even further, international news reports have been and will continue to diminish in number and quality.
请教Tina老师。本题选E是因为其他选项中continue与already重复吗?个人感觉并没有啊。。C中的already did代表的是过去, will continue代表的是未来,两者拼起来不就是整个时间段吗?此外,还有一个题想向老师请教(博小智里没有搜到这个题), The loan company announced it would soon lend money to borrowers with proven records of their not paying back their loans on time, collectively known as subprime. 我比较困惑的是that they do not pay back their loans on time, such a group与of not paying back their loans on time, a group这两个选项。我觉得前面的表达用了三角结构比后面的表达更清晰,such a group做了限定修饰也比a group更好,不知为什么选后面的选项。。谢谢老师

Although the discount stores in Goreville's central shopping district are expected to close within five years as a result of competition from a SpendLess discount department store that just opened, those locations will not stay vacant for long.  In the five years since the opening of Colson's, a nondiscount department store, a new store has opened at the location of every store in the shopping district that closed because it could not compete with Colson's.

老师,这道题我听了所有的录音之后还是不太理解。原文说的S是折扣店C是非折扣店,不同类型的店本来就不可以类比了呀,为什么还需要B选项来限制条件呢?我感觉B选项也需要稍微脑补一下才能选出来。老师我选择的是E,我承认我脑补了一下,因为那些新开的店卖的东西C没有,所以才不会closed也能够compete with C,这样不就weaken原文了吗?老师请您帮我指一下我的思维误区~
