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.

Since it has become known that several of a bank’s top executives have been buying shares in their own bank, the bank’s depositors, who had been worried by rumors that the bank faced impending financial collapse, have been greatly relieved. They reason that, since top executives evidently have faith in the bank’s financial soundness, those worrisome rumors must be false. Such reasoning might well be overoptimistic, however, since corporate executives have been known to buy shares in their own company in a calculated attempt to dispel negative rumors about the company’s health.

In the argument given, the two boldfaced portions play which of the following roles?

Theater Critic: The play La Finestrina, now at Central Theater, was written in Italy in the eighteenth century. The director claims that this production is as similar to the original production as is possible in a modern theater. Although the actor who plays Harlequin the clown gives a performance very reminiscent of the twentieth-century American comedian Groucho Marx, Marx's comic style was very much within the comic acting tradition that had begun in sixteenth-century Italy.

The considerations given best serve as part of an argument that

Read the statement and the instructions that follow it,and then make any notes that will help you plan your response.Begin typing your response in the box at the bottom of the screen.
 
The following appeared in the editorial section of a campus newspaper
 
"Because occupancy rates for campus housing fell during the last academic year, so did housing revenues. To solve the problem, campus housing officials should reduce the number of available housing units, thereby increasing the occupancy rates. Also, to keep students from choosing to live off-campus, housing officials should lower the rents, thereby increasing demand."
 
Discuss how well reasoned.., etc.
看下这篇吧 谢谢。The passage concludes that the housing revenues will stop declining if campus housing officials reduce the number of available housing units, and keep students from living off campus. Here, however, the author omits many important aspects that need to be addressed to substantiate the argument, leaving the argument vulnerable and unconvincing. First off, the author does not address if there is a connection between a low occupancy rate and housing revenues. A low overall occupancy rate is not necessary related to a low housing revenue. For example, a low overall occupancy which has a high occupancy rate in the more expensive housing can generate more revenues than a high occupancy rate which has a low occupancy rate in the more expensive housing. Moreover, reducing the number of available units does not guarantee an increase in the occupancy rates. The author fails to address many other reasons that may cause a low occupancy rate, reasons that can not be solved by simply reduce the available housing units, such as regulation that cuts off the power after 11 pm, or lack of air conditioning and other facilities. Leaving these issues unaddressed makes the argument vulnerable. Also, lowering the rents also may not deliver intended outcome, which is keeping students from living off-campus and increasing demand. Many students chose to live off-campus did not because of financial reasons, but because they want to get close to their families or leave more free rooms to themselves. Finally, even the occupancy rates increased and campus housing demand increase, the intended revenues increase is still very vulnerable. The revenues are made up by units*price. What the plan decreases in price the revenues must be made up for in units. The author fails to consider the possibility that a sharp decrease in rent price with a modest increase in demand may, in fact, lead to a loss in revenues.
