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.

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.

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.

哎,老师我最怕这类题,第一步抓的重点错了,就不大可能选出来正确答案了,我的思路是看到Both...and...并且选项之间有差异,根据一致性,立马排除了BCD,后来又根据saying的动作发出者是oil industry,而不是proposal,排除A,然后就没时间继续纠结E了。。我遇到很多错的题都是这样。语法题很难也说不上,但是正确率就是提不上来,每次模考必错不少。

Since it has become known that several of a bank's top executives have been buying shares in their own bank, the bank's depositors, who had been worried by rumors that the bank faced impending financial collapse, have been greatly relieved.  They reason that since top executives evidently have faith in the bank's financial soundness, those worrisome rumors must be false.  They might well be overoptimistic, however since corporate executives have sometimes bought shares in their own company in a calculated attempt to dispel negative rumors about the company's health.
 
In the argument given, the two boldfaced portions play which of the following roles?
两个问题1.第一句黑体写的是the reasons that since...说的很显然是原因 是用来支持结论的,怎么D里面说是中间结论啊!!中间结论明明是those worrisome rumors must be false....2.另外如何判断这两个结论之间的关系,句子中间为何没有任何转折词,第二个结论句子内部用了however是局内转折,好像不能用来判断句子之间转折吧?谢谢老师!

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?

请tina老师帮忙回答下,这题因为在讲义里的 体现主语动词 的章节,所以做的时候完全没考虑b选项的介词用about合不合适的问题,然后不太明白这里about the books可不可以作为介词短语当副词,修饰前面的research动词? 如果从体现主语动词这个角度,该怎么排除b?

The primary purpose of the passage is to
选C,开头说讲的主要是uncertainties,然后列举了两个:the first place......in addtion....。虽然in addition后的内容占了本文大部分篇幅,但是作为主旨题不能依据哪个篇幅大就选哪个,而是要探究作者真正的目的。作者真正的目的在开头很明确,就是探讨几个uncertainties,因此选C。B选项概括的只是inaddition to后面部分的内容,而不是整片文章的主旨。

想请教一下郭培月老师,这里D选项是不是有个but,又有个and,在but后面只有一套主谓,这边是不是错误啊?我知道size和land area对等错误。就想问下这边主谓是不是也错了?两个连词两套主谓,少了一套?谢谢郭老师。
