1) 区分conclusions和facts,conclusion是claims,而facts不能是claim。
2) 小心作者的态度 Some commentators have argued, [correctly], that since there is presently no objective test for whiplash, spurious reports of whiplash injuries cannot be readily identified. #这里的correct说明没有in the argument,即选项E不对。
3) 看清选项,A中的that conclusion指的的是the conclusion that the argument criticizes.
D 里面的 “成本差距大,所以Name Brand在价格上不能有效缩小和Store Brand的差距” 是我们自己脑补的,而非题目中的信息。

C)The first introduces a practice that the argument seeks to evaluate; the second provides grounds for holding that the practice cannot achieve its objective.#能达到目标
D)The first introduces a policy that the argument seeks to evaluate; the second provides grounds for holding that the policy is not needed.#not needed 因为有alternatives

整个句子的意思:查克峡谷的Anasazi居住地建造的规模宏大,有超过75个复杂的工程结构,每个工程结构都有超过600个房间,所有的工程结构之间由复杂的区域路径连接起来。
with表伴随用来进一步解释和补充spectacular scale(怎样的规模宏大?内部包含超过75个工程结构)。

the USA comprises 50 states, (all) united by a federal government --> correct, whether you have 'all' or not
【转载】文中说的是:测谎仪有的时候是没有结果的(即不显示被测试者是truthful还是untruthful),但是,(sometimes)有时候employer会拒绝这些测试结果为inconclusive的求职者。
错选A,A太绝对了,题目中用得修饰词是sometimes而不是most!!
解释C选项:这个inconclusive的测试结果对于被测试者是不公平的。
(对啊!就是不公平的!很有可能人家实际是truthful的,但是却被employer拒绝了!!)
【A are exhibiting B 比较的其实是B,而不是A,这个点一定要弄清楚,在这样一个句式里面,作者其实是在比较B】,所以选项B,rates of entrepreneurship不能同other immigrant group相比,选项D the rates of entrepreneurship不能同other immigrant group相比。(C) 正确, 用those代替前面出现过的rates,比较双方对应
A选项:Correct. Ryan的模型与传统的不同在于认为性别,而不是经济地位,决定了女性的阶层地位。这个选项必须要定位到Ryan出现的前面“is instead based on gender, and that the total female population, regardless of economic status, constitutes a distinct class. Social historian Mary Ryan, for example,”Ryan的观点是早期社会学家观点的一个例子,所以Ryan肯定也是认为性别决定阶层地位的。
