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.

The contingency-fee system, which allows lawyers and their clients to agree that the lawyer will be paid only in the event of success, does not increase the number of medical malpractice lawsuits brought against doctors. As attorneys must cover the costs for their time and research, they want to be assured that any medical malpractice case they accept on a contingency-fee basis has substantial merit. Consequently, attorneys turn away many people who come to see them, for lack of a good case.

The argument above is most vulnerable to criticism on the grounds that it fails to

想问陆旭老师这题的C为什么是加强?(官方解析说的)我对题目的理解是contingency-fee system要求律师在赢了案子后才能得到付款,但是对医疗相关的案件接的数量影响小,argument的结论是因为律师不想接这种案子,想接胜率大好赚钱的案例。我对C的理解就是,他提出了一个他因:就算是赢了的医疗案例,律师收的钱也少,所以他们不愿意这么做。B的话就是您上课说的正负得负,但是我觉得C和文章更贴近,就选了。

Birds have been said to be descended from certain birdlike dinosaur species with which they share distinctive structural features. The fossil record, however, shows that this cannot be so, since there are bird fossils that are much older than the earliest birdlike dinosaur fossils that have been found.

Which of the following is an assumption on which the argument relies?
麻烦英吉老师解答! 从题目中我找到的逻辑链是 R:有比earlist birdlike dinosaur fossils更老的鸟bird fossils被找到了 C:不能说bird是从birdlike dinosaur中进化得来的 找到的Gap两个: 1、 有没有可能更老的birdlike dinosaur fossils没被找到, 2、 从化石到进化的因果关系不清楚 但其实我对我找的gap是不确定的,我就拿正确答案C来验证,但是我发现C是不是抬杠呢?因为原文说了birdlike dinosaur fossils已经是earlist的了,那就是结论已经定死了birdlike fossils是在最前面那个点,没有比这更早的了。C选项说没有老于bird fossils的birdlike fossils没被找到,那不也说明原来的birdlike fossils 是earlist的吗?这个earlist跟no older是否重复了呢?算不算重述了原文结论进而属于抬杠式选项呢?

Proposed new safety rules for the Beach City airport would lengthen considerably the minimum time between takeoffs from the airport. In consequence, the airport would be able to accommodate 10 percent fewer flights than currently use the airport daily. The city’s operating budget depends heavily on taxes generated by tourist spending, and most of the tourists come by plane. Therefore, the proposed new safety rules, if adopted, will reduce the revenue available for the operating budget.

The argument depends on assuming which of the following?
麻烦英吉老师解答! 这个题我提炼的逻辑链是: reason:航班减少10% conclusion:Operaing budget的收入会减少 找到的Gap: 1、 航班减少10%,跟tourist spending少了没有必然因果关系 2、 Tourist spending减少了,operating budget不一定减少(有没有其他来源) 我听了之前的解答里面,结论是有游客数量减少这一步才到Operaing budget的收入会减少。但是游客减少这个结论我没读出来,因为我是根据原文最后一句话为结论的,为什么逻辑链里面会需要出现旅客数量减少这一点呢? 我的思路是根据我原来的逻辑链我找出了两个gap,然后因为选项C有涉及到我的第一个gap里面的spending,我就选了(我是对了答案才知道这个选项的方向是相反的)。可以麻烦老师指出我这思维里面的错误吗?
