仔细看了OG10th的CR解释，发现一个常见词be consistent with something，讨论贴也常常被问起，却没有一个正面的解释，也许是NN们觉得顺理成章吧，我来尝试一下，首先看看朗文的权威解释：
be consistent with something
if a fact, idea etc is consistent with another one, it seems to match it
例句：Her injuries are consistent with having fallen from the building.
The results are consistent with earlier research. 我认为OG解释中主要是表达“观点一致,相符合”。
OG例句：D fails to weaken the conclusion because it is consistent with the information given and the conclusion about life expectancy. 最有趣的是OG77题中D的解释：Choice D is inappropriate since many drivers not switching to buses is entirely consistent with many people making the switch. 乍一看，不知其所云，让我们先看看题目
77.
A certain mayor has proposed a fee of five dollars per day on private vehicles entering the city, claiming that the fee will alleviate the city’s traffic congestion. The mayor reasons that, since the fee will exceed the cost of round-trip bus fare from many nearby points, many people will switch from using their cars to using the bus.
Which of the following statements, if true, provides the best evidence that the mayor’s reasoning is flawed?
(A) Projected increases in the price of gasoline will increase the cost of taking a private vehicle into the city.
(B) The cost of parking fees already makes it considerably more expensive for most people to take a private vehicle into the city than to take a bus.
(C) Most of the people currently riding the bus do not own private vehicles.
(D) Many commuters opposing the mayor’s plan have indicated that they would rather endure traffic congestion than pay a five-dollar-per day fee.
(E) During the average workday, private vehicles owned and operated by people living within the city account for twenty percent of the city’s traffic congestion. 题目问得是the mayor's reasoning中的flaw，而D中的反对者，即not switching to buses的人意见和 making the switch的人意见却一致的认为traffic congestion，所以D并非flaw的证据. |
