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.

Even in the recent recession, Helios's unemployment rate was lower than the regional average. It is the industrial center of the region, and historically it has provided more than its share of the region's manufacturing jobs. In addition, Helios is attempting to expand its economic base by attracting companies that focus on research and development of innovative technologies."

當時排除D的原因是覺得K和W的觀點區別在於Revolution是否改變了對女性教育機會的atitude 。而K和W的觀點和證據(包括那些Revolution之前的trends)應該都支持了18世紀人們對女性教育機會的態度。因此觉得D的during the eighteenth century错,应该是after Revolution(之后的变化才能说明这个变化是Revolution而不是之前的trends带来的)。请老师指点D怎么理解在时间维度不对的问题。

Excavations of the Roman city of Sepphoris have uncovered numerous detailed mosaics depicting several readily identifiable animal species:  a hare, a partridge, and various Mediterranean fish.  Oddly, most of the species represented did not live in the Sepphoris region when these mosaics were created.  Since identical motifs appear in mosaics found in other Roman cities, however, the mosaics of Sepphoris were very likely created by traveling artisans from some other part of the Roman Empire.

Editorial:
 
In Ledland, unemployed adults receive government assistance.  To reduce unemployment, the government proposes to supplement the income of those who accept jobs that pay less than government assistance, thus enabling employers to hire workers cheaply.  However, the supplement will not raise any worker's income above what government assistance would provide if he or she were not gainfully employed.  Therefore, unemployed people will have no financial incentive to accept jobs that would entitle them to the supplement.
 
Which of the following, if true about Ledland, most seriously weakens the argument of the editorial?

Parland's alligator population has been declining in recent years, primarily because of hunting.  Alligators prey heavily on a species of freshwater fish that is highly valued as food by Parlanders, who had hoped that the decline in the alligator population would lead to an increase in the numbers of these fish available for human consumption.  Yet the population of this fish species has also declined, even though the annual number caught for human consumption has not increased.
 
Which of the following, if true, most helps to explain the decline in the population of the fish species?
