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.

主要是是BC的问题 当时我选了c 对于句子的解读时候认为是“野生动物的脂肪比觉得家禽的脂肪少”有that of 感觉不会有歧义。而且OG原文是这样的“The sentence reports research findings on the comparison between the fat content of wild animals and that of domestic livestock”结果答案是B,所以读完OG更加纠结了。

Jennifer:  Video rental outlets in Centerville together handled 10,000 fewer video rentals in 1994 than in 1993.  The decline in rentals was probably due almost entirely to the February 1994 opening of Videorama, the first and only video rental outlet in the area that, in addition to renting videos, also sold them cheaply.
 
Brad:  There must be another explanation:  as you yourself said, the decline was on the order of 10,000 rentals.  Yet Videorama sold only 4,000 videos in 1994.
 
Which of the following, if true, would most seriously weaken the force of the objection that Brad presents to Jennifer's explanation?

The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) had long been expected to announce a reduction in output to bolster sagging oil prices, but officials of the organization just recently announced that the group will pare daily production by 1.5 million barrels by the beginning of next year, but only if non-OPEC nations, including Norway, Mexico, and Russia, were to trim output by a total of 500,000 barrels a day.
不选C,是因为上一句是 pare daily production,所以这句trim output吗,动词加名词的结构?

Which of the following, if true, would most weaken the author’s conclusion in lines 18–22 ?
这道题我的思路如下: 看原文18-22行,读完以后我对原文的理解是:证据表明,虫子的数量跟自身因素有关,跟外部因素(比如天敌啦,寄生虫啦之类的)关系不怎么大。 题目问的是WEAKEN,我想的就是找一个能体现跟外部因素有关,或者无法确定昆虫数量到底跟谁有关的选项。 排除A,D,E以后剩下B和D。 D说的是lepi这个物种习性不一样,所以很难界定天气是否对其population cycle有影响。 我觉得, 这就是说明,lepi这个物种的population cycle到底受谁影响很难讲,因为没法控制变量呀。所以选了D
