请教PREP新版破解CR2的两道逻辑题 95 100 谢谢

95.
Which of the following most logically completes the passage?
Using new detection techniques, researchers have found trace amounts of various medicinal substances in lakes and rivers.  Taken in large quantities, these substances could have serious health effects, but they are present in quantities far too low to cause any physiological response in people who drink the water or bathe in it.  Nevertheless, medical experts contend that eliminating these trace amounts from the water will have public health benefits, since __________.
A. some of the medicinal substances found in lakes and rivers are harmless to humans even if taken in large quantities
B. some of the medicinal substances found in lakes and rivers can counteract possible harmful effects of other such substances found there
C. people who develop undesirable side effects when being treated with medicines that contain these substances generally have their treatment changed
D. most medicinal substances that reach lakes or rivers rapidly break down into harmless substances
E. disease-causing bacteria exposed to low concentrations of certain medicinal substances can become resistant to them

答案是E。我想选择B。我觉得E和题目没有什么关系啊。
题目是说 研究者发现一些医用物质在河里。如果大量吸收,这些物质会引发健康疾病,但是他们现在量都很低,不会引起引用它们的人们的生理反应。然而,医学专家认为应该消除这些东西是很有益的,因为——
B,一些物质会和一些物质反应产生有害的影响
E。致病细菌在低浓度的这些物质中间会对它们有抵抗力
不知道是我题目意思理解错了么?

100.
Lyme disease is caused by a bacterium transmitted to humans by deer ticks.  Generally, deer ticks pick up the bacterium while in the larval stage by feeding on infected white-footed mice.  However, certain other species on which the larvae feed do not harbor the bacterium.  If the population of these other species were increased, more of the larvae would be feeding on uninfected hosts, so the number of ticks acquiring the bacterium would likely decline.
Which of the following would it be most important to ascertain in evaluating the argument?
A. Whether populations of the other species on which deer tick larvae feed are found only in areas also inhabited by white-footed mice
B. Whether the size of the deer tick population is currently limited by the availability of animals for the tick's larval stage to feed on
C. Whether the infected deer tick population could be controlled by increasing the number of animals that prey on white-footed mice
D. Whether deer ticks that were not infected as larvae can become infected as adults by feeding on deer on which infected deer ticks have fed
E. Whether the other species on which deer tick larvae feed harbor any other bacteria that ticks transmit to humans

答案怎么会选择B呢。
我的理解:
文章意思,风湿病是由于一种通过deer ticks传给人类的细菌引起的。一般来说,deer ticks带上这种病菌当它们还是幼虫的时候,通过吃infected white-footed mice. 然而,幼虫吃的一些其他的种类没有这个细菌。如果其他种类的老鼠增加了,更多的幼虫就会寄宿在没有感染的宿主上,所以感染这个细菌的ticks就会减少。
下面哪个应该要evaluate。
A。是否tick能寄宿的其他种类只有在white-footed mice也在的地方才能找到
B。时候tick的数量现在被限制了,因为tick幼虫可以寄宿的动物(不available)
C。明显不对。。
D。是否ticks在幼年时候没有被感染可以在成年时候被感染,当寄宿在infected deer曾经寄宿过的deer身上
E。无关选项。。
我怎么觉得应该是选择A呢。。
收藏 分享

B. Whether the size of the deer tick population is currently limited by the availability of animals for the tick's larval stage to feed on

只有在deer ticks 总数量基本不变(limited) 的情况下,这个方法才可行。 两人分蛋糕,只有蛋糕的数量不变;才能说A拿的多,B就一定拿得少。

如果因为宿主的增多而导致deer tick的大量繁殖,那这个方法就是无效的

我在问一句。
题目中说这些medical substance大量吸收是有害的。E答案又说致病细菌会对这些medical substance有抵抗力。那么这些medical substance是有害还是有利的?
我觉的medical substance的是好时坏很重要。如果没有任何医疗作用,那么E的描述完全不能起到support医学专家的作用啊。

一开始我也选了B,后来发现漏了原本结论的关键词"eliminating"。。。B 是削弱了experts的claim.

嗯~讲得比较清楚~~我消化消化~~谢谢~~~以前还没有遇到过,选项里面涉及的漏洞题干已经补上的情况>_<~~

增加其他种类老鼠,虱子幼虫就能寄生在未感染的宿主身上,虱子感染就少,人类感染风湿就少

B:虱子的数量是否受限于幼虫对宿主的可利用性。如果虱子的数量不是由幼虫对宿主的可利用性决定的,那么题干的推理就不能成立了,因为题干一直在讨论在幼虫宿主上做文章,来降低感染虱子的数量,从而降低风湿病。
但是这里有一点,虱子的数量和受感染虱子的数量是不一样的。所以B还是有些瑕疵的,但GMAT需要选相对好的选项

A:是否白腿老鼠和其他种类的宿主老鼠住在一样的地方。因为题干已经说了If the population of these other species were increased, more of the larvae would be feeding on uninfected hosts,因此这个逻辑部分已经被填充好了,不管这几个宿主是否住在一样的地方,只要其他的数量增加了,就会有更多的幼虫寄生在未感染的宿主上~
讲的不太清楚,还请多多指教~

95楼主题干理解的很对~
但是B理解的好像不对,我的理解是河里的医学物质能够中和其他有害物质。这样看,消除这些医学物质就不能中和那些有害物质,因此对公众无利。
E致病菌在这些物质的河里产生了抵抗力,关键是对(医学物质)产生了抵抗力,因此在治疗中患者摄入的医学物质不能有效地杀死致病菌,进而清除这些物质,不让病菌产生抵抗力对公众更加有利~
