91. Leachate is a solution, frequently highly contaminated, that develops when water permeates a landifill’s site. If and only if the landfill’s capacity to hold liquids is exceeded does the leachate escape into the environment, generally in unpredictable quantities. A method must be found for disposing of leach ate. Most landfill leachate is sent directly to sewage treatment plants, but not all sewage plants are capable of handling the highly contaminated water.
Which one of the following can be inferred from the passage?
A.The ability to predict the volume of escaping landfill leachate would help solve the disposal problem.
B.If any water permeates a landfill, leachate will escape into the environment.
C.No sewage treatment plants are capable of handling leachate.
D.Some landfill leachate is sent to sewage treatment plants that are incapable of handling it.
E.If leachate does not escape from a landfill into the environment, then the landfill’s capacity to hold liquids has not been exceeded.
我也不明白啊,前辈们!为什么E是对呀?原命题说的是landfill’s capacity to hold liquids 导致了Leachate escape,但是E相反嘛!所以,不明白,不明白~~作者: vespertine612 时间: 2012-7-6 06:23
if and only if表示“当且仅当”,说明是一个充分必要条件,因此表示唯一性,也就是说引起B的原因只有A,A的发生就必然导致B的发生,A的不发生就必要导致B的不发生。B是A的必要条件,B的发生必然导致A的发生。
好像说得很绕口,肯定让人看得很混乱,所以,建议大家去看看关于这方面的解释,就好理解啦。作者: Amy1989618 时间: 2012-7-6 18:27
this is a must be true question.
However, D is a result may be true, not must be true. It is possible that all L is sent to plants which can treat this material.作者: honoluluhono 时间: 2012-7-7 11:07
对于此题的解释还是不懂哎……
A:超出处理能力
B:会泄露
原文:if and only if A, then B
即为B→A
而E选项是非B→非A啊…………为什么解释给的是非A→非B?不是 if not B ,then not A 吗?

If and only if是充分必要条件 E选项是原命题的逆否命题 所以是对的。感觉D就是原句的表述 not all就相当于some 所以是simple fact 而不是infer出来的。
