解释里说Similar to作为比较是wordy and imprecise。这里为什么similar to 没有like好？

A novelist。。。， SL became。。。 第一反应run on首先排除了，，，

It's certainly possible all numbers to equal to 0: for example {0, 0, 0} --> answer YES.
It's also possible one number to be different from 0 and all other numbers to equal to 0 (in this case the product of ANY two numbers in the list will also be equal to 0). For example, {0, 0, 1} --> answer NO.

First 100 machines = 3% commission = 0.03*100*10000 = 30000
Commission from sale of next machines = 36000 - 30000 = 6000
So 15 more machines..

Total = 115 machines

Statement 1: if n = 40 then answer is no, if n = 60 , answer is yes.
Thus not sufficient.

Statement 2: n+6 is a multiple of 3 => n + 6 = 3m => n = 3m -6

=> n = 3( m - 2) , now if 7 = 3, its true , if m = 4 not true.

thus not sufficient.

If you combine both , n is multiple of both 3 and 5(as multiple of 20)
=> n is multiple of 15.

Thus C

x = 1/4
x^-1 = 4
x^2 = 1/16
x^(1/2) = 1/2
x^3 = 1/8.

From this, rearrange the number and the median is 1/4, which is x. Answer A

the most straightforward thing in choice B:
"gas" is singular, so "far fewer of the other gas" is nonsense. (you can't have "fewer" unless you can count things, and you can't count things unless they're plural.)

这个题是不是可以看做样本枚举？E说明了样本不具有代表性

A 正确 Heating-oil prices are expected to be higher this year than （Heating-oil prices were expected to be）last because refiners are paying about $5 a barrel more for crude oil than they were(paying) last year.
B rise higher重复 比较级用than不用over
C Expectations( for heating-oil prices) are to be higher this year than last year

reduced India's rice production
跟主句宾语做比较，所以不需要将主句动词还原

A She和photographer Lotte Jacobi 没有连词
B being错误 had emigrated 错误
D after emigrating to New York when (she was)compared to her native Germany 不应该省略she was
E 没有连词同A

错选了A
注意the number of East German residents killed each year （as car occupants）说明死亡上升的数字都是拥有者贡献的，跟passenger就无关了

选项d意思是1989年以前那些不怎么开车的人也被算在增加的范围内，所以比例的分母变大了，所以比例就变小了，是这意思吗？这题绕不明白
