Political Advertisement:Mayor Delmont's critics complain about the jobs that were lost in the city under Delmont's leadership. Yet the fact is that not only were more jobs created than were eliminated, but the average pay for these new jobs has been higher than the average pay for jobs citywide every year since Delmont took office. So there can be no question that throughout Delmont's tenure the average paycheck in this city has been getting steadily bigger.
Which of the following, if true, most strengthens the argument in the advertisement?
The average pay for jobs created in the city during the past three years was higher than the average pay for jobs created in the city earlier in Mayor Delmont's tenure.
Average pay in the city was at a ten-year low when Mayor Delmont took office.
Some of the jobs created in the city during Mayor Delmont's tenure have in the meantime been eliminated again.
The average pay for jobs eliminated in the city during Mayor Delmont's tenure has been roughly equal every year to the average pay for jobs citywide.
The average pay for jobs in the city is currently higher than it is for jobs in the suburbs surrounding the city.
楼主是在A和D里面纠结吧。
题干:New>eliminated的工作数量,New pay>average pay
推出: average pay(D的任期内)>average pay(D任期之前)
变化的工作数量=New-eliminated的工作数量,即使新增加的工作数量更多,即变化的工作数量为正数,但是如果被撤销的工作的平均工资>New pay(>average pay),有可能变化的工资总量(=NewXNew pay- eliminatedXeliminated pay)为负,那么在D的任期之内,总的平均工资还有可能下降。
