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.

Economist:  On average, the emergency treatment for an elderly person for injuries resulting from a fall costs $11,000.  A new therapeutic program can significantly reduce an elderly person's chances of falling.  Though obviously desirable for many reasons, this treatment program will cost $12,500 and thus cannot be justified.

In Wareland last year, 16 percent of licensed drivers under 21 and 11 percent of drivers ages 21–24 were in serious accidents. By contrast, only 3 percent of licensed drivers 65 and older were involved in serious accidents. These figures clearly show that the greater experience and developed habits of caution possessed by drivers in the 65-and-older group make them far safer behind the wheel than the younger drivers are.

Unlike frogs that metamorphose from tadpoles into adults within a one-year period, it takes three to four years for the mountain yellow-legged frog of the Sierra Nevada to reach adulthood, and so they are restricted to deeper bodies of water that do not dry up in summer or freeze solid in winter.
请问Tina老师,为什么restricted不能修饰yellow-legged frog?如果until后面的句子当成一个整体来看,那么restricted是否应当修饰句子的主语they?动词ing修饰主语和动词ed形式修饰主语的规则是否一致?谢谢老师!

Guillemots are birds of Arctic regions. They feed on fish that gather beneath thin sheets of floating ice, and they nest on nearby land. Guillemots need 80 consecutive snow-free days in a year to raise their chicks, so until average temperatures in the Arctic began to rise recently, the guillemots’ range was limited to the southernmost Arctic coast. Therefore, if the warming continues, the guillemots’ range will probably be enlarged by being extended northward along the coast.

Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument?
【麻烦英吉老师指导】 B、D二选一时,B有跳跃推断的“马后炮”的嫌疑,但大方向上逻辑并无绝对错误,被我留下了;而D选项我关注的重点是状语部分,特定说的是南边的冰会融化,那南边没鱼吃了,那些鸟不得就只能往北边去了,所以应该是支持原文,而不是削弱,立马被我排除了。但这种情况下,抱着只需要知道how,不需要知道why的思维,即使B可能不是最优选项,但我还是义无反顾选了B。请老师答疑,为啥我盯着答案看了很久依然不明白

A year ago, Dietz Foods launched a yearlong advertising campaign for its canned tuna. Last year Dietz sold 12 million cans of tuna compared to the 10 million sold during the previous year, an increase directly attributable to new customers brought in by the campaign. Profits from the additional sales, however, were substantially less than the cost of the advertising campaign. Clearly, therefore, the campaign did nothing to further Dietz’s economic interests.

请英吉老师解答! 这题我主要关注的是原文结论部分,这里说到活动不会给公司带来“进一步的利润”,这个further对我产生了很大影响。因此我认为选B是不可能错的,因为新顾客变成了忠实顾客,说明有可能带来远期的收益,完全符合削弱结论;而E说的是过去每年其他家都在降,而原文这家起码升了,可这带来的是已有的、既定受益,和further扯不上关系啊。
