前提,两个lobby客流量接近,但是 that other hotel is having to replace the worn-out carpeting near its lobby entrances另一家酒店要换靠近lobby入口的地毯→得出结论:另一家酒店的地毯差
削弱证据,也就是找到另外原因,使得“另一家酒店要换lobby入口的地毯”
A选项,意思就是另外酒店入口门少,所以踩入口处地毯的人多,踩的多了,地毯坏了,不是因为质量问题。
(注意,原文只说了lobby整个厅的客流量接近,而换的地毯是入口处的,两者之间有gap)
'I don't like the kind of animals that live here.' and 'The kind of animal that lives...'. You'll see that the 'that' refers to the animal or animals, not the 'kind'. --From MGMAT
the kind of X that ... that后面的谓语是跟随X,而不是the kind
这篇文章作者逻辑上只是想解释一个历史法案,即“Lone Wolf v. Hitchcock”。中间有一些让步什么的(eg. 1871)都是为了作者更好的介绍这个历史上的法案所带来的影响。
In its 1903 decision in the case of Lone Wolf v. Hitchcock, the United States Supreme Court rejected the efforts of three Native American tribes to prevent the opening of tribal lands to non-Indian settlement without tribal consent.
双重否定句。 reject 和prevent方向一致,删去。剩下的就是最终结果。
无需印第安人同时,开放土地给“非印第安人”定居
目标“减少青少年serious crime的程度”,
推理文段:政府的方法不能达到目标
方案是让青少年晚上呆在家中,原文又说但是大部分的青少年的crime都在下午3-6点,(潜意思说人家都在下午犯罪,你下午把人家放出来就晚上关起来也没有用啊!)因此无法减少。
但其实这里有个gap:我要减少的是serious crime,但你在下午的大部分可能都是一些小偷小摸的事件,关键的还是在晚上,关起来还是有用的。
E选项压根和政府的方法没关系
RON大神的回复:
(e) is wrong because it's completely irrelevant to the actual issue treated in the passage.note the passage's conclusion:
Even if the measures succeed in keeping teenagers at home, however, they are unlikely to affect the problem that concerns citizensthe passage is solely concerned with the effect of the new measures. therefore, we don't care if there are other programs that might have a mitigating effect on the crime rate.
定位句Scientists speculate that early in lunar history, when large impactors struck the Moon's surface, causing millions of cubic kilometers of crustal debris to be ejected, denser material from the Moon's mantle rose up beneath the impactors almost Immediately, compensating for the ejected material and thus leaving no low gravity anomaly in the resulting basin. 也就是“denser material from the Moon's mantle rose up beneath the impactors ”形成了compensation,就是E
错选D,讲的是eject,但是eject之后XXrose up 才是重点!
significant negative gravity anomalies 》无compensation
定位关键句:Thus today such gravitational compensation probably would not occur: 也就是这个compensation只在early时期发生
the fused clavicles (the "wishbone") of birds differ from the unfused clavicles of theropods.-->鸟类的锁骨是fused而theropod的是unfused,所以认为鸟类不是从theropod进化来的
B错的原因是ome scientists argue that the complex lungs of birds could not have evolved from theropod lungs,科学家只说了觉得complex lungs不可能是从theropod进化来的,而没有说有没有fossils,最后的because no fossil lungs are preserved in the paleontological record.都是作者自己的判断,也就是说作者说的没有fossils,所以无法判断这个说法对不对
因为害虫—(棉花数量少了)—棉花价格上涨
plan:种棉花,赚钱
B。有杀虫剂,则推理文段不成立了:没害虫-棉花价格不上涨,所以就赚不了钱了,对
错选C,需求没有上升,但棉花价格在涨,不能削弱
highligh部分还是属于在反驳第一个论点:theropods appeared too late to have given rise to birds
所以是C,和后面的clavicle,lungs都无关
从some scientists remain unconvinced可看出作者是在回应这些不相信的scientist
作者针对那些科学家为什么不相信鸟是从theropod恐龙进化来的的理由进行反驳,一共反驳了3条:fossils of theropods appeared too late->differ from the unfused clavicles of theropods->complex lungs
(1)说明x,y的因数里相同的有且只有2,5,两者相乘能被4整除,能不能被8整除取决于其中一个是否另外有一个2.
(2)说明x,y各自的因数汇总、去重后是(2,2,5,5)。说明其中一个有2个2,另一个最多可以有2个2,也可以没2. 乘积是否有3个2不确定。
(1) (2)联立,说明x,y都各自有1个2,并且至少其中一个有2个2,xy总共有至少3个2,可以被8整除。【易错】
错选了C:
M的意思是,最优秀的法官不来做这个工作,是因为讲座和授课都不能收钱,而P是说很少有法官会上课or讲座,但是P基于的是现在的法官,而不是the best candidates
这就好像说:M认为中国国足吸引不了优秀人才,涨工资解决不了问题因为不让拍广告。P说了:咱们的球员根本没人拍广告。P的问题就在于:目前的球员本来就能力差没人找他们拍广告,可牛逼的球员广告费代言费是很多的,不让拍广告人家就不来踢足球了->from KMF
我觉得C错的原因是只说了ban没有负面影响,而他说的是涨工资有正面影响,涨工资和ban是两个东西
(1)不充分,可大可小,(2)也不充分,若m=n则(1+1)/(1+1)=1/1,但是m1/2
(1)(2)m0,则充分
Beth's route was 5 miles longer, and it tookher 20 minutes more than Adam to complete the trip.
多5miles,多花20mins
所以B25miles,花了50min,25/(50/60)=30
最后一题guest appearance是嘉宾的意思吧

misunderstood 不准确, 没有完全推翻之前的观点,只是revise
文章最后一段全是对T的批判,并且用词相当犀利,如faulty、unconvincing、unrepresentative。
Dismissive:轻视的;Indifferent:漠不关心的;Vindictive:报复性的;Cautious:谨慎的;Ambivalent:模棱两可的。
