12 西红柿
V1
说农民生产番茄, 因为要运送所以他们研究出新品种可以奈的起运送过程; 最近发现客户喜欢吃flavor intense?的番茄, 所以他们又研究出flavor intense的番茄…
问based on what? 选择好像有他们本来不知道客户喜欢的口味, 旧番茄也是flavor intense…等

考古：
好flavor的西红柿
V1 from rabbityvonne
以前美国西红柿都是种uniformity and firmness的，因为要装到crate里上高速公路去全美，后来发明了一种什么西红柿好像flavor更好，是用某种box运的，问加强（记得不太清晰）
V2 from yunnan1990
随着通往其他地方的高速路的修建，北美的农民开始种uniformity and firmness的的西红柿，这种西红柿味道好，可以用于集装箱运输，说什么的预计这种西红柿的出口很棒。问得出什么结论。我选的是：不会因为西红柿变得uniformity and firmness而口味变差，应该是对的，只是原文记不清了。

23土地分配
V1
一个国家都是进口麦和马铃薯当做人民的主食.但是如果用这个国家的空地来拿来种这两样食物可以养活全国的人口还有20% more. 所以如果这国家把剩下的土地都拿来种这两种作物,人口增加20%之前都不用...甚么甚么忘记了....  
答案应该是当人口增加20%的时候这国家需要拿这些地for more house.

考古：
V1
现状是某国进口tomato和corn两种蔬菜。可是如果该国闲置的可用耕地全部用来种这两种蔬菜的话，即使全国的需求量增加20%也能自给自足；因此即使全国人口增加20%，该国闲置的可用耕地全部利用起来也能满足需求。问削弱
我选的是如果人口增加20%，很可能需要利用部分闲置的耕地建造住房

V2（740提供）说一个地方进口谷类和什么东西，但是那个国家有一大块空地，如果用来种那些东西，可以在满足需求的基础上，超额20％。所以假设是，即使人口涨了20％也不影响它的供给能力。问什么是削弱的？
我选那个说20％的人口会占用那块土地的一部分用来居住。

22 葡萄病
V1：
一个地方种葡萄(还是别的东西阿?)的农夫, 大部分都是从某个地方用cut的方法移植过来种的, 近年来发现有种这农作物的病是专门靠cut这种媒介传播的, 这种病轻微的症状是会产量很少,但是这跟一般普通低厂量的分别很难区别.这地区过去五年都产量很低,所以都是因为这个病的关系,问assumption  
答案应该是,过去五年这种病都没有severely症状的出现

21 花粉传播
V1
有一种花有两类，一种是需要像蜜蜂一样的昆虫来帮助开花从而受精，另一种是可以自己来。所以说如果那种需要帮助才能受精的种类如果没有得到昆虫的帮助的话就不能受精

考古：未确认
有些花是通过pollinator传播花粉繁殖，有些是self-pollinated。好像说，通过昆虫传播花粉的species数量大大减少，推论是因为pollinator infection, 问evaluate。（选项有： whether the number of self-pollinated species also decreased;….）

20 新设备除有害物质
V1
有一个新的装备可以去除排放物中的某种有害物质S----的然后这个新的装置比原来的过滤装置要便宜很多很多，所以应该把这个新的装备作为将来建造厂房的标准配置（大致意思这样），也是问weaken


考古：  已确认GWD原题
T-3-Q29.
The emission of sulfur dioxide when high-sulfur coal is burned is restricted by law. New coal-burning plants usually comply with the law by installing expensive equipment to filter sulfur dioxide from their emissions. These new plants could save money by installing instead less expensive cleaning equipment that chemically removes most sulfur from coal before combustion.
Which of the following, if known, would be most relevant to evaluating the claim above about how new-coal burning plants could save money?
A.        Whether existing oil-burning plants are required to filter sulfur dioxide from their emissions.
B.        Whether the expense of installing the cleaning equipment in a new plant is less than the expense of installing the cleaning equipment in an older plant.
C.        Whether the process of cleaning the coal is more expensive than the process of filtering the emissions
D.        Whether lawful emissions of sulfur dioxide form coal-burning plants are damaging the environment.
E.        Whether existing plants that use the filtering equipment could replace this equipment with the cleaning equipment and still complete with new plants that install the cleaning equipment.
OA：C

19 汇率和出口
V1
有一道说某国提出要重新降低本国货币的汇率来继续增强该国的出口竞争力，然后问下面哪个事实最好地weaken了这个提议
我选了E 只要通过提高产品本身的质量即使该国货币不贬值，出口也还是会继续增加

狗主人说：不是原题，题干相似度90%以上，但考试的题目中国家的名称用了country X来替代，同时选项也很不同，我记得没有和原题中的标准答案类似的选项，所以我最后选择的是只要提高产品的质量几十货币本身不贬值，该国的出口还是可以大幅度增加的

考古：
说货币贬值的时候，就会刺激出口，举了两个例子，但是说这个国家要让货币贬值，它的出口也不会增加。我选的他现有的工厂已经全负荷生产了，而盖新工厂要几年的时间，他提供不了出口的货物。
答案和以前的题目很像，换了种说法：现在生产出口商品的厂子都满负荷了，新的厂子要一年以后才能投入生产。

GWD-24-14  题干类似，选项不同，大家小心
In 1983 Argonia’s currency, the argon, underwent a reduction in value relative to the world’s strongest currencies. This reduction resulted in a significant increase in Argonia’s exports over 1982 levels. In 1987 a similar reduction in the value of the argon led to another increase in Argonia’s exports. Faced with the need to increase exports yet again, Argonia’s finance minister has proposed another reduction in the value of the argon.

Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the prediction that the finance minister’s plan will not result in a significant increase in Argonia’s exports next year?

A. The value of the argon rose sharply last year against the world’s strongest currencies.
B. In 1988 the argon lost a small amount of its value, and Aronian exports rose slightly in 1989.
C. The value of Argonia’s exports was lower last year than it was the year before.
D. All of Argonia’s export products are made by factories that were operating at full capacity last year, and new factories would take years to build. 虽采用该计划，惟有利结果已到达极限无法再增加
E. Reductions in the value of the argon have almost always led to significant reductions in the amount of goods and services that Argonians purchase from abroad.

OA: D

PREP1-25.        (30261-!-item-!-188;#058&004144)
Twelve years ago and again five years ago, there were extended periods when the Darfir Republic's currency, the pundra, was weak: its value was unusually low relative to the world's most stable currencies. Both times a weak pundra made Darfir's manufactured products a bargain on world markets, and Darfir's exports were up substantially. Now some politicians are saying that, in order to cause another similarly sized increase in exports, the government should allow the pundra to become weak again.

Which of the following, if true, provides the government with the strongest grounds to doubt that the politicians' recommendation, if followed, will achieve its aim?

(A) Several of the politicians now recommending that the pundra be allowed to become weak made that same recommendation before each of the last two periods of currency weakness.
(B) After several decades of operating well below peak capacity, Darfir's manufacturing sector is now operating at near-peak levels. 虽采用该计划，惟有利结果已到达极限无法再增加
(C) The economy of a country experiencing a rise in exports will become healthier only if the country's currency is strong or the rise in exports is significant.
(D) Those countries whose manufactured products compete with Darfir's on the world market all currently have stable currencies.
(E) A sharp improvement in the efficiency of Darfir's manufacturing plants would make Darfir's products a bargain on world markets even without any weakening of the pundra relative to other currencies.

OA: B

18 公司生产策略
V1
有个公司需要提高他的某种产品的production,有两种方式一个是老员工overtime, 一个是雇佣新的员工.如果老员工overtime的话要付one and one half 什么的工资,反正就是很高的工资.而新员工需要培训.
好像是explain这道题 反正不是weaken

考古：
A公司的生产策略
V1有个题是说，一个A公司现在要增加产量，但是增加产量的话有两个选择...一个是让现有员工work overtime，另一个是雇佣新员工。让现有员工工作overtime的话，需要多支付1到1.5倍的工资...However, 雇佣新员工会便宜，但是呢，这样产量就不能保证...貌似...

选项有一个说新员工来了老员工要教他们，无关选项。还有一个是新员工做的东西不能确保质量，无关...其他的不记得了..

17机场延误与座位
V1：
机场5年内，关于飞机延误的抱怨变多了，关于座位的抱怨不多，座位状况保持不变，那么关于座位的抱怨不会增加。weaken 我选的是人在烦躁的时候会找座位的毛病。

航空公司处理延误和客诉
shirleyluye
航空公司总是delay，然后乘客还抱怨位子不好，然后航空公司的某老大就跑出来说准备先解决delay的问题，delay解决了那么人家也不抱怨位子了。问假设。
考古资料
一个airline的乘客抱怨航班延误和座位小的比率都上升了5%，而airline的management认为他们的座位和别的航空公司比并不小，所以抱怨主要来自于等待航班的不耐，所以解决方法应该是减少延误就可以解决对于座位小的抱怨，要求问weaken.
某航空公司进来收到很多关于飞机delay和座位cramping的投诉。但该公司认为他们公司早几年才扩宽了座位，所以其实顾客的投诉只是因为delay而引起的不满而投诉，与座位无关的。所以如果航空公司尽量不晚点，那么就不会再有人投诉了。问weaken。思考：需要削弱的是不会再有人投诉，其措施是不晚点，那么即使不晚点也会有人投诉就是其切入点，方向：目前的顾客流量超过了扩宽的座位数，这样也座位也是有关的。
