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.

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.

想请问英老师,我还有一周考试,想请问作文模版是否可行(配行文思路) 我引用的是OG15的P799,第一篇。 行文如下: The author argues that “Stores should begin to replace some of those products intended to attract the younger consumer with products intended to attract the middle-aged consumer”. He cited evidences to support his conclusion. However, the example he used cannot fully support his justification, and I will elaborate the deficiencies in his arguments through the following discussion. 第一段,指明author结论,已经此文意图。 In this argument, the author states that “Middle-aged consumers devote 39% of their expenditure, while younger consumers devote 25% of their expenditure to department store”. In order to reach his conclusion, the author reasons that because “the number of middle-aged consumers will increase, the retail sales of department stores will increase.” 第二段,复述author说了什么,以及他是如何reach他的conclusion的。 First of all, the failed to demonstrate a connection between the increase of middle-aged consumers and the increase of retail sales of department store. It is very possible that because of the popularization of online consume, middle-aged consumers in the future are more likely to “go shopping” at home, as long as using computer and internet. 第三段,开始我的argue,先指出第一个错误点及何种错误。再举了个例子来支持我的argue Furthermore, the author cited data that “Middle-aged consumers devote 39% of their expenditure, while younger consumers devote 25% of their expenditure to department store” is insufficient. It is vague unless the author mentions what the total expenditure figure of middle-aged consumers and younger consumers are. For instance, the total expenditure of Middle-age consumers is $1000 per year, while the total expenditure of younger consumers is $5000 per year. Thus, the total expenditure of Middle-aged consumers is lower than it of younger consumers. 第四段,指出第二个错误,用反证的方式提出驳斥,并加以例子进行解释。 Finally but not least, the author unfairly assumes that strategies nowadays are applicable in the future. It is possible that the department store is unlikely to experience the same consequence if it adopts author’s conclusion in the coming 5 years. In the next 5 years, the younger consumers will get richer to afford various commodity. Younger consumers will be the major consume group in the society. 指出第三个错误,并提出另外一种可能性来驳斥。 From the reasons given above, there are several severe deficiencies in author’s justification, the conclusion of author “Stores should begin to replace some of those products intended to attract the younger consumer with products intended to attract the middle-aged consumer” is untenable. 最后进行总结。 我的argue思路是,先总描述author说了什么,他如何reach他的conclusion,然后每一个错误,都以 1.指出错误类型 2.阐述为何错误 3.进行驳斥(可举例,反证,他因,刨祖坟) 套话尽量减少,多写实例。字数在350-400字内 请老师指点。谢谢

Which of the following is most clearly an example of the practice referred to in the highlighted text of the passage?
Which of the following is most clearly an example of the practice referred to in the highlighted text of the passage?Passage In recent years, Western business managers have been heeding the exhortations of business journalists and academics to move their companies toward long-term, collaborative "strategic partnerships" with their external business partners (e.g., suppliers). The experts' advice comes as a natural reaction to numerous studies conducted during the past decade that compared Japanese production and supply practices with those of the rest of the world. The link between the success of a certain well-known Japanese automaker and its effective management of its suppliers, for example, has led to an unquestioning belief within Western management circles in the value of strategic partnerships. Indeed, in the automobile sector all three United States manufacturers and most of their European competitors have launched programs to reduce their total number of suppliers and move toward having strategic partnerships with a few. However, new research concerning supplier relationships in various industries demonstrates that the widespread assumption of Western managers and business consultants that Japanese firms manage their suppliers primarily through strategic partnerships is unjustified. Not only do Japanese firms appear to conduct a far smaller proportion of their business through strategic partnerships than is commonly believed, but they also make extensive use of "market-exchange" relationships, in which either party can turn to the marketplace and shift to different business partners at will, a practice usually associated with Western manufacturers.

Pharmacists recently conducted a study with respect to the reasons their customers purchased eye drops to soothe eye dryness. Dry eyes were more frequently experienced by customers who wore contact lenses than by customers who did not wear contact lenses. The pharmacists concluded that wearing contact lenses, by itself, can cause contact wearers to have dry eyes.
Which one of the following statements, if true, most seriously undermines the pharmacists’ conclusion?
