困惑，始终想不通，求分析～

In Patton City, days are categorized as having heavy rainfall (more than two inches), moderate rainfall (more than one inch, but no more than two inches), light rainfall (at least a trace, but no more than one inch), or no rainfall.In 1990, there were fewer days with light rainfall than in 1910 and fewer with moderate rainfall, yet total rainfall for the year was 20 percent higher in 1990 than in 1910.

If the statements above are true, then it is also possible that in Patton City

A.the number of days with heavy rainfall was lower in 1990 than in 1910

B.the number of days with some rainfall, but no more than two inches, was the same in 1990 as in 1910

C.the number of days with some rainfall, but no more than two inches, was higher in 1990 than in 1910

D.the total number of inches of rain that fell on days with moderate rainfall in 1990 was more than twice what it had been in 1910

E.the average amount of rainfall per month was lower in 1990 than in 1910
题目中给出heavy rainfall, moderate rainfall, light rainfall, or no rainfall四个等级，且说90年的moderate rainfall 和 light rainfall 的天数都比91年少，但总的雨量比91年多，问选项哪个可能对，答案A，90年heavy rainfall 的天数比91年少，想不通，（无雨量可以忽略不计）三个雨量的天数都比91年少，加起来这么会多于91年呢？

这题有奇怪有出名，我可以试图这样分析取一种极端情况，90年heavy rainfall只有一天，但下了超级超级超级多的雨，直接秒杀91年全年总和，这样可以使90年的moderate rainfall 和 light rainfall 的天数都比91年少，但总的雨量比91年多

了解了，真不知道还可以这样，谢谢~~

GMAC还真是变态呀~~

你把这个当成不等式来列就清楚了

HEAVY RAIN只是告诉你雨量大于2 对吧？ 天数少不代表总雨量小啊!! 这里只是大于，没有上限的，一定要注意这个条件！！

例如，90年下大雨5天，每天100inch。。。。91年下大雨6天，每天3inch。。。

不知道我解释的是否明白？

而且你再看看别的选项，和题目描述的事实不符，根本不可能对。只有A可能是对的。

这是一个著名的怪题，楼主可以百度一下……
题目让选哪一个有可能是对的，只要选出可能的那个就可以了。
