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.

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.

Most household appliances use electricity only when in use.  Many microwave ovens, however, have built-in clocks and so use some electricity even when they are not in use.  The clocks each consume about 45 kilowatt-hours per year.  Therefore, households whose microwave oven has no built-in clock use 45 kilowatt-hours per year less, on average, than do comparable households whose microwave oven is otherwise similar but has a built-in clock.

Insect infestations in certain cotton-growing regions of the world have caused dramatic increases in the price of cotton on the world market.  By contrast, the price of soybeans has long remained stable.  Knowing that cotton plants mature quickly, many soybean growers in Ortovia plan to cease growing soybeans and begin raising cotton instead, thereby taking advantage of the high price of cotton to increase their income significantly, at least over the next several years.

Kernland imposes a high tariff on the export of unprocessed cashew nuts in order to ensure that the nuts are sold to domestic processing plants.  If the tariff were lifted and unprocessed cashews were sold at world market prices, more farmers could profit by growing cashews.  However, since all the processing plants are in urban areas, removing the tariff would seriously hamper the government's effort to reduce urban unemployment over the next five years.
 
Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument?
1 文章读成这样:高关税是的nuts只能卖到国内。买到世界价格,农民获利。但是,因为工厂在urban(不认识urban) area ,降税使得失业率未来可能上升。 2然后:A B D都排除了 剩下 C E 3选C :人分成两拨儿 一拨儿farmer 另一拨儿processor,农民的利润升高了,所以 农民失业少了,总体这两拨儿人 根据C选项所说农民占多数。那既然占多数的不失业,总体失业就必然不会增加。所以选 C 不选E:因为不知道 urban是指城市还是乡村,所以农民离开土地到城市中去,不知道跟原文说的urban area是否一致(因为如果相反的话,可能跟原文讨论的就不是一个事儿了) 4 思维错误点:挣钱=能持续就业=失业率不上升 区域和总体 urban unemployment 不等于total unemployment 我以上所找到的思维错误正中要害吗? 还是,有其他的思维错误点没找出来? 老师,您能帮忙看看吗?谢谢您了!

The violent crime rate (number of violent crimes per 1,000 residents) in Meadowbrook is 60 percent higher now than it was four years ago.  The corresponding increase for Parkdale is only 10 percent.  These figures support the conclusion that residents of Meadowbrook are more likely to become victims of violent crime than are residents of Parkdale.
 
The argument above is flawed because it fails to take into account

Scientists typically do their most creative work before the age of forty.  It is commonly thought that this happens because aging by itself brings about a loss of creative capacity.  However, a study has found that almost all scientists who produce highly creative work beyond the age of forty entered their fields late and less than a dozen years before their creative breakthroughs.  Since creative breakthroughs by scientists under forty also generally occur within a dozen years of the scientist's entry into the field, the study's finding strongly suggests that the real reason why scientists over forty rarely produce highly creative work is not due to age but rather because most have spent too long in their fields.
