23.A man is holding seven cards in his hand,four 8 's and three 6 's.How many cards does he lay on the table?
1)The man lays a card on the table if the number on the card is divisible by 2.
2)The man lays a card on the table if the number on the card is divisible by 3.

Answer:A
为什么不是 D ？1）应出 7张啊，2）是出3张啊？难道理解不对？

2。Mr.Chopra drove his car 20 miles to the airport and then flew 400 miles at a speed 4 times faster than he drove .The entire trip took 3 hours.

A) 112  B) 120   C)160  D)200  E)220

为什么不是 C ？答案d是怎么算出来的///搞不懂。
另外，“at a speed 4 times faster than he drove ”怎么理解？
如开车速度是V，那么飞机速度应是4V，还是5V ？

请帮助！！

per #23, (1) is enough, no matter which card is laid on the table, it is diviseble by 2
(2) it depends. no rules is given regarding numbers which are not divisible by 3.

牛津高阶英汉双解词典第四版1600页在对"times"的解释中有下面的例子:
This book is three times as long as / three times longer than/ three times the length of that one.
中文翻译为:这本书是那本书篇幅的三倍(比那本书长两倍/篇幅为那本书的三倍).
可以认为上题应该是4V.[em09]

VICTOR：You know, you are absolutely right.

VICTOR：既然已经对解答这题有把握了，就请开蛊吧。

Check "Oxford Advanced Learner's English-Chinese dictionary, (Fourth edition)", you may find somthing useful in Page 1600.

To COOK: you may try to use "Neither do I" when you agree that you are NOT.

各位，这题是偶在庙峰山上的新东方资料处 买的《GMAT最新练习踢》中的，有4套，一套比一套难。心凉凉啊。

我快考了，请帮助确认一下，该死的{at a speed 4 times faster than he drove ”是4V，还是5V }。

I checked  the maths of OG yesterday， but I cannot find such kind of expression as“ times faster than ”。

cook

Yeah, so do I .

Could you believe it has same meaning between " .A...4 times greater than B.." and "..A...4 times as many as B...." , each expression meaning A=4B even though it is overtly different.

Hope we can get confirm from ETS. Langue is used by People.
