og12 74 新问
74. In the past the country of Malvernia has relied heavily
on imported oil. Malvernia recently implemented a
program to convert heating systems from oil to
natural gas. Malvernia currently produces more natural
gas each year than it uses, and oil production in
Malvernian oil fi elds is increasing at a steady pace.
If these trends in fuel production and usage continue,
therefore, Malvernian reliance on foreign sources for
fuel is likely to decline soon.
Which of the following would it be most useful to
establish in evaluating the argument?
(A) When, if ever, will production of oil in Malvernia
outstrip production of natural gas?
(B) Is Malvernia among the countries that rely most
on imported oil?
(C) What proportion of Malvernia’s total energy
needs is met by hydroelectric, solar, and nuclear
power?
(D) Is the amount of oil used each year in Malvernia
for generating electricity and fuel for
transportation increasing?
(E) Have any existing oil-burning heating systems in
Malvernia already been converted to naturalgas-
burning heating systems
题目中说if the trends in fuel production and USAGE continue, therefore ,Malvernian reliance on foreign sources for fuel is likely to decline soon. 题目中已经考虑到了fuel的使用量并且暗含说明fuel usage会以一个比较平稳的趋势增长，因此我想问一下为什么答案和OG 的解释都给的是the country's need for oil was going to rise drastically to offset these trends.这样的话不就是和题目冲突吗？
或者说这题可以对他假设的条件进行evaluate,还是说usage在这里的意思当用方法讲而不是使用量讲。
逻辑一塌糊涂，还请各位帮帮忙...... |
