题目：

In the year following an eight-cent increase in the federal tax on a pack of cigarettes, sales of cigarettes fell ten percent.  In contrast, in the year prior to the tax increase, sales had fallen one percent.  The volume of cigarette sales is therefore strongly related to the after-tax price of a pack of cigarettes.
 
The argument above requires which of following assumptions?

选项:

A、During the year following the tax increase, the pretax price of a pack of cigarettes did not increase by as much as it had during the year prior to the tax increase.
B、The one percent fall in cigarette sales in the year prior to tax increase was due to a smaller tax increase.
C、The pretax price of a pack of cigarettes gradually decreased throughout the year before and the year after the tax increase.
D、For the year following the tax increase, the pretax price of a pack of cigarettes was not eight or more cents lower than it had been the previous year.
E、As the after-tax price of a pack of cigarettes rises, the pretax price also rises.

Columnist: Metro City has a lower percentage of residents with humanities degrees than any other city of comparable size in our nation. Nationwide, university graduates generally earn more than people who are not university graduates, but those with humanities degrees typically earn less than do graduates with degrees in other disciplines. So the main reason Metro City has higher income per capita than any other city of comparable size in our nation must be its low percentage of residents with humanities degrees.

Which of the following, if true, would most strengthen the columnist's argument?

想请教下唐塘老师，此题该如何解，破题点在哪呢？我的问题卡在对比选项上。另外定位该定哪个呢？我理解是low %with 人文degree。

Today's technology allows manufacturers to make small cars more fuel-efficient now than at any time in their production history.
想请唐瑭老师解答下，您之前的解释是，At any time包含过去现在和将来，所以today不能跟any time比较.但是题目中后面有in their production history,history就限制了at any time是过去的时间，所以我理解now 可以跟at any time in their history 比较，麻烦您了，多谢

When rounded by Method Y, what is the combined number of H2 and O2 molecules in the gas sample?
  1. The number of H2 molecules and the number of O2 molecules are each less than 3 × 1021.

A survey of entrepreneurs who started companies last year shows that while virtually all did substantial preparatory research and planning, only half used that work to produce a formal business plan.  Since, on average, the entrepreneurs without formal plans secured the capital they needed in half the time of those with plans, these survey results indicate that, in general, formal plans did not help the entrepreneurs who produced them to secure the capital they needed.
 
Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument?
请问，这题如果要选weaken的话，就是说formal plan对于secure capital有帮助，或者没有formal plan的人用其他方式secure capital(不是因为formal plan没用)。所以选C,D.D说的是没有formal business plan的人也做了很多research,为什么不行呢？谢谢！

Aroca City currently funds its public schools through taxes on property.  In place of this system, the city plans to introduce a sales tax of three percent on all retail sales in the city.  Critics protest that three percent of current retail sales falls short of the amount raised for schools by property taxes.  The critics are correct on this point.  Nevertheless, implementing the plan will probably not reduce the money going to Aroca's schools.  Several large retailers have selected Aroca City as the site for huge new stores, and these are certain to draw large numbers of shoppers from neighboring municipalities, where sales are taxed at rates of six percent and more.  In consequence, retail sales in Aroca City are bound to increase substantially.
 
In the argument given, the two potions in boldface play which of the following roles?

陆旭老师，我有一些做过的assumption题目取非的句子搞不清，你能帮忙看下吗(不说这道题目的解题思路，单纯就是取非问题，特别是双重否定或者从句里面有否定词） 1.No part of a person’s brain that is damaged by a stroke ever recovers.---> some part of a person's brain that is damaged by a stroke ever recovers. 2.Impairment of linguistic capabilities does not occur in people who have not suffered any damage to any language center of the brain.这个句子我不太会取非，正过来说这个句子就是Impairment of linguistic capabilities occurs in people who have suffered any damage to any language center of the brain.那么我取非是Impairment of linguistic capabilities occurs in people who have not suffered any damage to any language center of the brain. 3.If there are language centers on the left side of the brain, any serious stroke affecting that side of the brain damages at least one of them. 取非If there are language centers on the left side of the brain, any serious stroke affecting that side of the brain damages nothing of them. 4.这题出现两个not The collection fee will not significantly affect the purchasing power of most residents, even if their households do not reduce the amount of trash they put out. 我取非直接去前面的not: The collection fee will significantly affect the purchasing power of most residents, even if their households do not reduce the amount of trash they put out. 5.这个也差不多 Not all steel producers were unaffected by country A’s newly imposed tariffs. 我取非All steel producers were unaffected bycountry A’s newly imposed tariffs. 6.There are no plants native to western Africa that, if domesticated, could serve as staple food crops. 这个if domesticated是不是可以不管，直接改成There are some plants native to western Africa that, if domesticated, could serve as staple food crops.

To map Earth's interior, geologists use a network of seismometers to chart seismic waves that originate in the earth's crust and ricochet around its interior, most rapidly traveling through cold, dense regions and slower through hotter rocks.
在B和C里面纠结，最后选了B，因为觉得C选项的doing形式表示的结果状语从句在这里没有必要，B选项很明显which从句的注意是那个waves，很明确啊，为什么还是C啊...
