笔记：好像只能用排除法了
(A) NTArg：the argument ask us to explain the discrepancy between Geckos population in rural and urban areas.
(B) NTArg: still, the information cannot prove the differences b/t Geckos ppl in rural and urban areas.
(C) IRR: irrlevant information.
(E) IRR: no matter whether the way geckos reproduce can influence the ppl or not, the information cannot explain the difference of geckos ppl in r and ur area. (btw, the stems do not offer any information about reproduction.)
D选项：’having been based on ‘ is wordy.这个结构会使'having been based on crashes involving sport utility vehicles'更倾向于修饰'the research conducted by the insurance company.而不是the automobile company'
原句中的provisions和其定语从句中的provide是不重复的。provide这个词，除了“提供”的意思外，还有“规定”的意思。
A选项：'there are...that...' is unnecessarily wordy; they指代不明确；
B选项：it 指代the new maritime code;
C选项：under provisions of the new maritime code修饰语放错地方了，似乎是在修饰area, 其应该被置于句首避免歧义；
D选项：this 指代不清楚，可以指代单数名词，但是本题中stimulate的逻辑主语应该是复数名词provisions of the new maritime code；
E选项：没有主句
A选项：conception‘ is wordy and awkward;
B选项：which指代模糊；but没有平行的对象，语法上不对；
D选项：conceive of ...to be ❌；hich has become precisely the opposite是定语从句，就近修饰名词the telephone。但这在逻辑上是不对的。因为真正变成相反的东西的应该是“收音机”。
E选项：conceive of sth as...✅；'other than what it is' is awkward, wordy and redundant, other than what it is不是连词，不能连接两个句子。other than = except,other than应改为rather than，且rather than可做介词亦可做连词，意思为“而不是…”
B选项：it 指代不了companies;
C选项：and needing不合语法。they指代不明确,companies or regulators;
D选项：they指代不明确,companies or regulators;approval was not needed by regulators before they raised rates.
由于被动语态的原因，所以regulators变为了need的主语。但在逻辑上，应该是保险公司发出“需要”这一动作,与原文不符；
E选项：‘ before the raising of’ is wordy and awkward; 独立主格结构，还原为普通的状语从句则有：
approval was not needed from regulators before the raising of rates.
其中并没有指明是谁发出need这一动作。这是不正确的。
A选项：they指代wasps, wasps consist almost entirely of females,逻辑上有问题，应该是社会包含女性；
C选项：which means,就近接单数名词，而不应该是wasps; 如果which从句做插入成分，则后面的almost all 句子没动词；
D选项：which means同C；and it is ...females动词修饰有误,应该是it consists almost entirely females；and并列成分:number, and consist不平行；
E选项：and并列成分:number, and consist不平行；
A选项：代词they没有指代对象。
B选项：wild animals have less total fat than do livestock fed on grain和wild animals have less total fat than livestock fed on grain比较对象均✅；
C选项：that of没必要，A is／has...more than B; have more fat of a kind 是要表达have a kind of more fat？
D选项：total fat of wild animals is less than livestock，比较对象不对等
E选项：total fat is less in wild animals than that of livestock fed on grain，平行结构 that of livestock fed on grain中that of应该换成in; they指代错误；
B选项：where引导的定语从句的先行词必须在从句中作状语而不能作主语，因此动词discovered缺少主语。
另外，Although named for the New Mexico site where first discovered in 1932是伴随状语，但是“Clovis points被命名为了一个墨西哥州的遗址”和“Clovis points是矛”之间不具有转折关系（although）。
C选项：'have been first discovered'是错误的时态，因为discover只能有一次，不能first...修饰；
D选项：没有谓语动词；even though...but。。。同时使用；
E选项：chipped into; 逻辑上有问题，尽管（描述Clovis points，）但是它们被在北美找到。。。依据原文，这个根本构不成转折，语义不符；
