41.: GWD-23-Q39

In Gandania, where the government has a monopoly on tobacco sales, the incidence of smoking-related health problems has risen steadily for the last twenty years. The health secretary recently proposed a series of laws aimed at curtailing tobacco use in Gandania. Profits from tobacco sales, however, account for ten percent of Gandania’s annual revenues. Therefore, Gandania cannot afford to institute the proposed laws.

Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument?

A.All health care in Gandania is government-funded.

B.Implementing the proposed laws is not likely to cause a significant increase in the amount of tobacco Gandania exports.

C.The percentage of revenue Gandania receives from tobacco sales has remained steady in recent years.

D.Profits from tobacco sales far surpass any other single source of revenue for the Gandanian government.

E.No government official in Gandania has ever previously proposed laws aimed at curtailing tobacco use.
答案是A  可我不明白原文就是说Profits from tobacco sales占revenue很重要，curtailing tobacco use会减少revenue,所以才cannot afford呀

institute the proposed law究竟是由谁来institute?不是政府吗？
谢谢好心nn帮忙解困

文中说tabacco是政府财政收入的主要来源 所以禁止的话会影响财政收入 所以政府不能实施
答案说 所有的health centre都是政府设立的 国民生病了都要政府买单的 所以不禁止的话 生病的人多了 政府付的也多了  财政收入就受到影响啦！

原文说： G会不会立法；与抽烟相关的健康问题是否增长

Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument?

A.All health care in Gandania is government-funded.
说在G的health care怎么怎么样

B.Implementing the proposed laws is not likely to cause a significant increase in the amount of tobacco Gandania exports.

说立法对tobacco的出口不会有大影响 无关
C.The percentage of revenue Gandania receives from tobacco sales has remained steady in recent years.
G在T上的收入迟缓

D.Profits from tobacco sales far surpass any other single source of revenue for the Gandanian government.

any other绝对化 且与原文无关
E.No government official in Gandania has ever previously proposed laws aimed at curtailing tobacco use.
以前的政府没有这样做过  无关
AC都有关 C仔细一看与原文方向相反 是支持

中国思维：我还以为是政府能通过医疗赚钱弥补损失...少抽烟了怎么赚钱？所以想不通a。

不好意思，占个地再问一道，因为置顶帖的发帖规则说最好别发新帖问题目的


A year ago the government reduced the highway speed limit, and in the year since, there have been significantly fewer fatalities than were there in the previous year. Therefore, speed limit reduction can reduce traffic fatalities.

The argument is most vulnerable to the criticism that it takes for granted that
A. highway traffic has not increased over the past year
B. the majority of drivers obeyed the new speed limit
C. there is a relation between driving speed and the number of automobile accidents
D. the new speed limit was more strictly enforced than old one
E. the number of traffic fatalities the year before the new speed limit was introduced was not abnormally high


这题是选C还是E呢？

这类题目应该算是FLAW了吧~一般怎么做比较好呢？？？？

请问各位大牛，题目到底是在削弱什么？
