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.

Which of the following, if true, most undermines Danville Winery's response?
这个题目每次纠结的点是D选项的“occasional purchasers”;我的理解是因为occasional purchasers只是偶尔买酒,那么对Mourdet Winery的生意影响应该没有那么大才对。我理解的逻辑链是:Mourdet Winery认为:Danville Winery's 因为酒瓶一样导致消费者会买错酒;Danville Winery认为金色label会让消费者把酒的品牌区分开来,所以不会买错酒。原文要求undermines Danville Winery的推理,是不是说只要有人(哪怕只是很少一部分人)还是会买错酒(由于无法区分酒的外观)就可以undermines Danville Winery的推理了?谢谢!

So dogged were Frances Perkins' investigations of the garment industry, and her lobbying for wage and hour reform was persistent, Alfred E. Smith and Franklin D. Roosevelt recruited Perkins to work within the government, rather than as a social worker.
想问一下金老师,如果E so persistent her lobbying for wage and hour reform 省略了动词 be,那么省略的动词是否应该是之前并列的结构so dogged were Frances investigations 的动词were?但是这个应该使用的动词是was.请老师帮忙解答一下,谢谢!

K is a set of integers such that if the integer r is in K, then r + 1 is also in K. Is 100 in K?

(1) 50 is in K.

(2) 150 is in K.
想请问一下老师,对于第一个条件,这个题目没有说50是不是这一列数的最后一个数字,如果50是最后一个,那这列数就是50,49,48... ,那100就不再里面。如果50不是最后一个,那100就可能在里面。第二个条件也是,如果150是最开始一个数字,那100就不在里面,如果150不是最开始的,那100就有可能在这列数里,所以我感觉答案是e,不知道哪个地方想错了

Most of the world's supply of uranium currently comes from mines.  It is possible to extract uranium from seawater, but the cost of doing so is greater than the price that uranium fetches on the world market.  Therefore, until the cost of extracting uranium from seawater can somehow be reduced, this method of obtaining uranium is unlikely to be commercially viable.
 
Which of the following would it be most useful to determine in evaluating the argument?
