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.

In January of last year the Moviemania chain of movie theaters started propping its popcorn in canola oil, instead of the less healthful coconut oil that it had been using until then.  Now Moviemania is planning to switch back, saying that the change has hurt popcorn sales.  That claim is false, however, since according to Moviemania's own sales figures, Moviemania sold 5 percent more popcorn last year than in the previous year.
 
Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the argument against Moviemania's claim?
不太明白答案是怎么回答问题的？是因为总的销售增加了，所以M说他的popcorn销售受损了站不住的吗？

Tanco, a leather manufacturer, uses large quantities of common salt to preserve animal hides.  New environmental regulations have significantly increased the cost of disposing of salt water that results from this use, and, in consequence, Tanco is considering a plan to use potassium chloride in place of common salt.  Research has shown that Tanco could reprocess the by-product of potassium chloride use to yield a crop fertilizer, leaving a relatively small volume of waste for disposal.
 
In determining the impact on company profits of using potassium chloride in place of common salt, it would be important for Tanco to research all of the following EXCEPT:

Which of the following most logically completes the passage?
 
Each species of moth has an optimal body temperature for effective flight, and when air temperatures fall much below that temperature, the moths typically have to remain inactive on vegetation for extended periods, leaving them highly vulnerable to predators.  In general, larger moths can fly faster than smaller ones and hence have a better chance of evading flying predators, but they also have higher optimal body temperatures, which explains why ______.
此題為何不選D？ 因為大moth的opitmal溫度高，所以它們需要較大比例的翅膀來幫助飛行躲避predator，也說得通啊。

Twenty years ago, Balzania put in place regulations requiring operators of surface mines to pay for the reclamation of mined-out land.  Since then, reclamation technology has not improved.  Yet, the average reclamation cost for a surface coal mine being reclaimed today is only four dollars per ton of coal that the mine produced, less than half what it cost to reclaim surface mines in the years immediately after the regulations took effect.
 
Which of the following, if true, most helps to account for the drop in reclamation costs described?
前面老師的錄音說，因為在surface mine挖的煤比非surface挖的煤占總產量的比例比20年前低，所以攤分每噸煤要付的reclamation cost比20年前低。 可是原文說 the average reclamation cost for a surface coal mine being reclaimed today is only four dollars per ton of coal “that the mine produced”, 那麼就是所有要交reclamation的煤都是從the a surface coal mine挖的，並沒有C說的停止了surface mining，因此也不存在surfacing mine的煤占比下降的情況。請老師再說明一下C為何能回答原文的問題？

Some species of Arctic birds are threatened by recent sharp increases in the population of snow geese, which breed in the Arctic and are displacing birds of less vigorous species.  Although snow geese are a popular quarry for hunters in the southern regions where they winter, the hunting season ends if and when hunting has reduced the population by five percent, according to official estimates.  Clearly, dropping this restriction would allow the other species to recover.

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.
 
Which of the following is an assumption on which the argument depends?
请教如何理解选项B意思？ No motifs appear in the Sepphoris mosaics that do not also appear in the mosaics of some other Roman city. that带的主语从句修饰的是motifs 还是 no motifs？ 这句话是说以下哪个意思？ 1. 没有（出现在S马赛克但没有出现在其它罗马古城的马赛克的图案） 2. 没有不在S马赛克上出现、但在其他罗马古城马赛克上出现的图案。
