4.       Advertisement: Of the many over-the-counter medications marketed for the relief of sinus headache. SineEase costs the least per dose. And SineEase is as effective per dose as the most effective of those other medications. So for relief from sinus headaches, SineEase is the best buy.
Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument above?




(A) Most of the over-the-counter medications marketed for the relief of sinus headache are equally effective per dose in providing such relief.支持

(B) Many of the over-the-counter medications marketed for the relief of sinus headache contain the same active ingredient as SineEase.无关比较点

(C) People who suffer from frequent sinus headaches are strongly advised to consult a doctor before taking any over-the-counter medication.建议，无关

(D) An over-the-counter medication that is marketed for the relief of symptoms of head cold is identical in composition to SineEase but costs less per dose.（D）

(E) The per dose price for any given over-the-counter medication marketed for the relief of sinus headache is higher for smaller packages than it is for larger packages.无关



答案是D 可是D谈的是medication for the relief of symptoms of head cold

But in the passage , we talk about the medication for for relief from sinus headaches  So i think that D is out of scope .



thanks.

sinus headach与headache cold不是一个病，正因为不是一个病这道题出得才说得过去。原文说，缓解sinus headache的疼痛的药SineEase是最便宜的（既然已经是最便宜的了，选项就不能质疑，除非有不是治疗这种病的药，而且也有这个功效，并且比他便宜，才不算违背愿意）。但D说虽然有种药不是治sinus headache的，而是治疗headache cold的，但是两种药都一个成分，而且更便宜，所以这个药好。

出这道题的人是个脑残。如果两种药是同一个成分，那还不是一个功效？虽然可能不同的药厂叫的名字不一样，但是药效肯定都一样。不用看这道题了，没什么意思的。

不知道老外怎么读这句话，反正我看到medication for headcold 就是觉得和sinus headache 不一样，不过ETS又说两种药成分一样，就当他们是一样的吧。

C选项为什么不对呢？能不能理解Sinus er应该先去看医生，医生并不一定建议你吃sineease啊，不过这样想有些钻牛角尖

ETS is playing a game here.

The first claim (Of the many over-the-counter medications marketed for the relief of sinus headache, SineEase costs the least per dose) compares SineEase with sinus-headache medicines.

The second claim (And SineEase is as effective per dose as the most effective of those other medications) compare SineEase with all most effective medicines.

The two comparisons are with different sub-sets.

So D is the one point out the logic gap.

谢谢,是我脑子缺个筋  谢谢

所谓 over-the-counter medications 就是市面上的成药不需要医生的处方一般人去药房就可以买到的药

如D说 如果成分一样 价格比较便宜 那你会买哪一个? 我觉得symptom只是干扰作用 如果不是over-the-counter medications 我就不会选 但如果是 我觉得成分比较重要

我想他在里面还是作用最大的weaken

这是两个不同的概念啊

一个是relieve  sinus headaches 另一个是 for the relief of symptoms of head cold

为何会是答案呢

谢谢

In my opinion, both are over-the-counter medications. Moreover, compared with other options, D is the best !!
