求教og12 逻辑69. 这个出题目的是不是有病啊,求大家围观···

Scientists have modifi ed feed corn genetically,
increasing its resistance to insect pests. Farmers who
tried out the genetically modifi ed corn last season
applied less insecticide to their corn fi elds and still got
yields comparable to those they would have gotten
with ordinary corn. Ordinary corn seed, however,
costs less, and what these farmers saved on
insecticide rarely exceeded their extra costs for seed.
Therefore, for most feed-corn farmers, switching to
genetically modifi ed seed would be unlikely to increase
profi ts.
Which of the following would it be most useful to know
in order to evaluate the argument?
(A) Whether there are insect pests that sometimes
reduce feed-corn yields, but against which
commonly used insecticides and the genetic
modifi cation are equally ineffective
(B) Whether the price that farmers receive for feed
corn has remained steady over the past few
years
(C) Whether the insecticides typically used on feed
corn tend to be more expensive than
insecticides typically used on other crops
(D) Whether most of the farmers who tried the
genetically modifi ed corn last season applied
more insecticide than was actually necessary
(E) Whether, for most farmers who plant feed corn,
it is their most profi table crop

作者杂文中明明说了节约杀虫剂的钱无法弥补买种子的钱,为什么还选D 我不知道是我疯了还是ETS傻了

我后来反复阅读几个选项,发现A B C E都只讲feed corn,而原文是要比较两

种feed corn(ordinary corn和genetically modified corn),如果讲的是两种

corn的共性,那肯定错误啦。所以一下子都排除掉,选D!

哎,今天这道题,我也做错了。。。

谢谢啊,看来我当时是疯了,但是ETS也会在这种问题上纠结?

Because you missed the modifiers: rarelly, necessary.

It is possible that most farmers used MORE pesticides than NECESSARY when using the new seeds. If they reduce the amount of pesticides, the cost saving would more than compensate the extra cost when buying the new seeds
