GRE不光有技巧,不光有快速解题法,GRE更加考察大家的逻辑硬实力,文字理解实打实的深度。良好的GRE备考应当在课堂上向老师学习快速解题法,取同取反逻辑的同时,课下扎扎实实的读懂每一句话。读懂,是一切技巧使用的前提。皮之不存,毛将焉附?
Passage 74
The damage that trucks do to highways escalates dramatically with the weight borne per axle. New regulations increase the maximum permitted vehicle weight; these regulations will therefore allow onto the highway trucks capable of doing even more damage than those currently permitted.
文章解析
The damage that trucks do to highways escalates dramatically with the weight borne per axle.
当卡车每个车轮轴的承重量大幅度增加的时候,卡车对于高速公路的损坏程度就会大幅度增加。
New regulations increase the maximum permitted vehicle weight; these regulations will therefore allow onto the highway trucks capable of doing even more damage than those currently permitted.
新的规定提高了每辆车的最高可允许承载量。显然,这些规定会使得这些行驶在高速公路上的卡车和现有的卡车相比,对高速公路带来更大的损坏。
题目解析
1. The argument is open up to criticism on the grounds that it
A. fails to establish that the level of damage done by trucks is a serious problem.
B. omits evidence about one of the two relevant factors.
C. ignores the possibility that careful driving can lessen damage to highways.
D. presumes that trucks are the only vehicles capable of causing substantial damage to highways.
E. presumes that something is bound to happen just because it is allowed to happen.
原文的推理论证过程是,给出的证据是每根车轮轴的承重量增加,会导致卡车对高速公路的损坏程度增加。而得出的结论却是,因为卡车总的承重量会增加,所以卡车对高速公路的损坏程度会增加。但卡车总的承重量会增加,并不意味着每根车轮轴的承重量也一定会随之增加(如果车轮轴的数量增加了,那么每根车轮轴的承重量和之前会保持一致,甚至减少。)因此这个推理过程是有问题的,经不起推敲。
B. 忽视了两个相互关联的因素中的其中一个。(原文忽视了车轮轴的数量这个因素。)
C. 忽视了谨慎驾驶会减轻对高速公路造成的损坏这件事。
D. 假定卡车是唯一会对高速公路造成大量损害的交通工具。
E. 假定人们允许一件事发生,它就一定会发生。(原文并没有说人们允许卡车对高速公路造成损坏。) |
