答案:(E)
Wearing either a lap seat belt or a shoulder-and-lap seat belt protects
passengers from the major types of injuries incurred in head-on automobile
collisions. In such collisions, however, passengers wearing lap seat belts
alone frequently suffer internal injuries caused by the seat belt itself.
Such injuries do not occur when shoulder-and-lap seat belts are worn.
Which of the following conclusions about passengers involved in head-on
automobile collisions is best supported by the statements above?
No type of seat belt provides passengers with adequate protection from inju
ry.
The injuries that passengers most frequently incur are internal injuries.
Head-on automobile collisions cause more injuries to passengers than any
other kind of automobile accident does.
It is safer for passengers to wear a shoulder-and-lap seat belt than to
wear a lap seat belt alone.
It is safer for passengers to wear no seat belt than to wear a lap seat
belt alone.

答案:(D)
Nonprescription sunglasses shield the wearer's eyes from damaging ultraviole
t
sunlight. Squinting, however, provides protection from ultraviolet rays that
is
at least as good as the protection from nonprescription sunglasses. There is
,
therefore, no health advantage to be gained by wearing nonprescription sungl
asses
rather than squinting.
Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens support for the conc
lusion
above?
Many opticians offer prescription sunglasses that not only screen out
ultraviolet sunlight but also provide corrective vision.
Some nonprescription sunglasses provide less protection from ultraviolet
sunlight than does squinting.
Squinting strains facial muscles and causes headaches and fatigue.
Many people buy sunglasses because they feel that sunglasses are fashionabl
e.
Some people squint even when they are wearing sunglasses.

答案:(C)
Studies of workplace safety in construction and manufacturing firms have fou
nd
that the rate of injuries tends to rise when the firms' work loads increase.
Since
inexperienced workers are often hired by these firms when work loads increas
e, the
higher rate of injuries is undoubtedly due to a higher accident rate for ine
xperienced
workers.
Which of the following statements, if true, would most weaken the conclusion
drawn
above?
Many of the inexperienced workers hired when the firms' work loads increase
are hired only for temporary positions.
The studies of workplace safety were focused only on injuries that resulted
in lost workdays.
There is a much higher rate of injury in construction firms than in manufac
turing
firms.
The accident rate for experienced workers tends to increase whenever the
firms' work loads increase.
Firms that hire inexperienced workers for potentially dangerous jobs are
required to provide them with training.

答案:(D)
问题:下面哪一个,if true,最削弱上面的结论?
读题:对建筑和制造公司中工作场所安全的研究发现,当工作负荷增加时,受伤率上升
。
因为在工作负荷增加时,无经验的工人经常被雇佣,受伤率的增加无疑归因于无经验工
人
的高事故率。
分析:倒数第二行due to引导一个解释。为什么事故率增加呢?是因为无经验工人的高
事
故率的原因。
反对形式为:
1、有其他的原因来解释为什么有事故增加
D. 工作负荷上升时,有经验的工人事故率增加。
(表示有其他的原因来解释)
E. 雇佣无经验工人做危险的工作时,公司被要求提供其训练。
(做危险的工作和工作负荷增加是两回事)
A researcher is experimenting with varying arrangement of exactly six unit
s
that are electrical conductors—G, J, K, M, P, and S—in a loop containing e
ight
positions, each capable of containing one conductor. In each arrangement, ea
ch
conductor is at one of the eight positions and two positions are empty. In d
evising
arrangements, the researcher must obey the following restrictions:
G must be directly adjacent to J.
P must be directly adjacent to S.
M must be directly adjacent to S on one side and to an empty position on t
he other.
A signal can be transferred from one conductor directly to another when the
two
conductors are directly adjacent to each other, and only then. A signal can
be
transferred either way around the loop, from one conductor to another, until
it
reaches an empty position. A signal cannot be transferred across an empty po
sition.
If a signal van be transferred, either directly or indirectly, from J to K,
it
must be true that a signal can be transferred, either directly or indirectly
,

Researchers know that exactly six prehistoric iron-working sites—Q, R, S,
T,
V, and X—existed in the Windham area. Recently, the researchers have discov
ered
three objects—1, 2, and 3—that they know must have been made by ironworker
s in
the Windham area. The researchers would like now to determine the specific s
ite
at which each object was made. The objects are different enough in compositi
on
and style to leave no doubt that each was made at a different site. In addit
ion,
the researchers have established the following:
If any of the objects was made at Q, none of them was made at T.
If any of the objects was made at R, none of them was made at S.
One of the objects was made at V.
Object 2 was not made at X.
Object 3 was made neither at S nor at X.
If object 1 was made at T, Object 3 could have been made at which of the
following?
Q
R
S
T
X

The facts show that the fear of flying in airplanes is not rational. In 19
86
alone, there were 46,000 fatalities in highway accidents, but from 1980 to t
he
present an average of only 77 per year in accidents on major domestic airlin
es.
The rate for regional airlines was only slightly higher.
If the evidence cited above is accurate, which of the following would be mos
t
important to know in order to evaluate the force of that evidence?
Whether repeated airplane travel allays fear of flying in airplanes
Whether regional and domestic airlines spend the same average amount of tim
e
per aircraft on maintenance
How many people reported a fear of flying in airplanes that was strong enou
gh
to prevent them from traveling by air
How many people per year have traveled by highway and how many by air since
1980
How much higher the accident rate has been for regional airlines than for
major domestic airlines since 1980

答案:(D)
事实显示害怕乘飞机是没有理由的。仅在1986年,在高速公路上有46000人丧命。但是从
1980年到现在,在国内主要航班平均每年仅有77人死亡。
问题:如果上面引用的证据都正确,为评价论据的有力性,下面哪一个最需要知道?
分析:原文从一个绝对数字的比较中得到一个结论。我们已经说过,必须从相对比例中
才
能得到结果。
D. 自从1980年以来,有多少人乘车旅行,有多少人乘飞机旅行?
Which of the following, if true, would argue most strongly against the
conclusion above?
Since the inventory of spare parts kept at each airport is smaller than in
earlier years, planes are often delayed at an airport while parts are flown
in
from another airport, and then repairs are carefully made and checked.
Air fatalities from 1980 to the present have been concentrated in the last
two years, with the rate rising sharply.
The number of reports of near collisions in midair in 1986 was less than
half those in a typical year of the 1960's, even with double the traffic of
the 1960's.
Many reported near collisions in midair are closer than regulations allow
but are nevertheless without actual danger.
Between 1980 and 1986, safety improvements in the design of automobiles
steadily improved their crashworthiness.

答案:(B)
事实显示害怕乘飞机是没有理由的。仅在1986年,在高速公路上有46000人丧命。但是从
1980年到现在,在国内主要航班平均每年仅有77人死亡。
问题:下面哪一个,if true,最削弱上面的结论?
B. 从1980年到现在,飞机事故主要集中在这2年,事故率迅速上升。
(B还是从相对比例这个角度来说)
In 1985 a consumer agency concluded that Xylo brand bicycles are safer to
ride than are Zenon brand bicycles. The agency based the conclusion on the
ratio of the number of rider injuries to the number of riding hours for each
brand of bicycle from 1981 through 1984. Yet for identically designed bicycl
es
manufactured since 1985, the number of rider injuries has been twice as grea
t
among riders of Xylos as among riders of Zenons. Therefore, the agency's
conclusion would have been different for the period since 1985.
Which of the following is an assumption that, if true, supports the claim th
at
the agency's conclusion would have been different for the period since 1985?
For the period since 1985, the number of riding hours for Zenons totaled
at least half the number of riding hours for Xylos.
Of all the bicycles ridden in the period since 1985, the percentage of
Xylos ridden was twice the percentage of Zenons ridden.
Prior to 1985, Zenon owners were more likely than Xylo owners to report
the injuries they sustained while riding their bicycles.
In 1985 the agency had miscalculated the ratio for Xylos, for Zenons, or
for both.
Soon after the agency had issued its report, consumer demand for Xylos
increased more rapidly than did consumer demand for Zenons.

(This passage is excerpted from
an article that was published in 1981.)
The deep sea typically has a sparse
fauna dominated by tiny worms and
(5) crustaceans, with an even sparser
distribution of larger animals. However,
near hydrothermal vents, areas of the
ocean where warm water emerges from
subterranean sources, live remarkable
(10) densities of huge clams, blind crabs,
and fish. Most deep-sea faunas rely for
food on particulate matter, ultimately
derived from photosynthesis, falling
from above. The food supplies necessary
(15) to sustain the large vent communities,
however, must be many times the
ordinary fallout. The first reports
describing vent faunas proposed two
possible sources of nutrition: bacterial
(20) chemosynthesis, production of food by
bacteria using energy derived from
chemical changes, and advection, the
drifting of food materials from
surrounding regions. Later, evidence in
(25) support of the idea of intense local
chemosynthesis was accumulated:
hydrogen sulfied was found in vent
water; many vent-site bacteria were
found to be capable of chemosynthesis;
(30) and extremely large concentrations of
bacteria were found in samples of vent
water thought to be pure. This final
observation seemed decisive. If such
astonishing concentrations of bacteria
(35) were typical of vent outflow, then
food within the vent would dwarf any
contribution from advection. Hence,
the widely quoted conclusion was
reached that bacterial chemosynthesis
(40) provides the foundation for
hydrothermal- vent food chains—an
exciting prospect because no other
communities on Earth are independent
of photosynthesis.
(45) There are, however, certain difficul-
ties with this interpretation.For example,
some of the large sedentary organisms
associated with vents are also found at
ordinary deep-sea temperatures many
(50) meters from the nearest hydrothermal
sources. This suggests that bacterial
chemosynthesis is not a sufficient
source of nutrition for these creatures.
Another difficulty is that similarly
(55) dense populations of large deep-sea
animals have been found in the
proximity of "smokers"–vents where
water emerges at temperatures up to
35
