107. Last year all refuse collected by Shelbyville city services was incinerated. This incineration generated a large
quantity of residual ash. In order to reduce the amount of residual ash Shelbyville generates this year to half of
last year’s total, the city has revamped its collection program. This year city services will separate for recycling
enough refuse to reduce the number of truckloads of refuse to be incinerated to half of last year’s number.
Which of the following is required for the revamped collection program to achieve its aim?
(A) This year, no materials that city services could separate for recycling will be incinerated.
(B) Separating recyclable materials from materials to be incinerated will cost Shelbyville less than half what it
cost last year to dispose of the residual ash.
(C) Refuse collected by city services will contain a larger proportion of recyclable materials this year than it
did last year.
(D) The refuse incinerated this year will generate no more residual ash per truckload incinerated than did the
refuse incinerated last year.
(E) The total quantity of refuse collected by Shelbyville city services this year will be no greater than that
collected last year.
麻烦翻译加解答谢谢~~
114. Guidebook writer: I have visited hotels throughout the
country and have noticed that in those built before
1930 the quality of the original carpentry work is
generally superior to that in hotels built afterward.
Clearly carpenters working on hotels before 1930
typically worked with more skill, care, and effort than
carpenters who have worked on hotels built
subsequently.
Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens
the guidebook writer’s argument?
(A) The quality of original carpentry in hotels is
generally far superior to the quality of original
carpentry in other structures, such as houses
and stores.
(B) Hotels built since 1930 can generally
accommodate more guests than those built
before 1930.
(C) The materials available to carpenters working
before 1930 were not signifi cantly different in
quality from the materials available to
carpenters working after 1930.
(D) The better the quality of original carpentry in a
building, the less likely that building is to fall into
disuse and be demolished.
(E) The average length of apprenticeship for
carpenters has declined signifi cantly since 1930.
不懂d为什么对,具体讲一下哦作者: zhangmile 时间: 2011-8-28 07:47
目标的内容是“In order to reduce the amount of residual ashShelbyville generates this year to half of
last year’s total”
不是问的垃圾量,是问的灰的量。而灰的量不等于垃圾的量。
既然灰的计算标准时卡车,那么卡车量=产生的灰的量。
而E里面说的是The total quantity of refuse collected by Shelbyville city services this year will be no greater than that
collected last year. 垃圾的总量,垃圾总量少了并不代表需要去焚烧的垃圾量少了。 作者: bennywang 时间: 2011-8-29 21:08

题干最后一句明确说了卡车数量减少到去年一半的量了
