※ 引述《life2002 (dog days)》之銘言： : Q31: : Although most smoking-related illnesses are caused by inhaling : the tar in tobacco smoke, it is addiction to nicotine that : prevents most smokers from quitting. In an effort to decrease : the incidence of smoking-related illnesses, lawmakers in Sandonia : plan to reduce the average quantity of nicotine per cigarette by : half over the next five years. Unfortunately, smokers who are : already addicted to nicotine tend to react to such reductions : by smoking correspondingly more cigarettes. : The information above most strongly supports which of the following : predictions about the effects of implementing the Sandonian : government’s plan? : A) The average quantity of tar inhaled by Sandonian smokers who : are currently addicted to nicotine will probably not decrease : during the next five years. : B) Sandonian smokers who are not already addicted to nicotine : will probably also begin to smoke more cigarettes during the : next five years than they had previously. : Answer:A : 可以請教一下各位這題的答案為何是A而非B? : 我搞不清楚為何"平均攝入tar的量並不會減少"會是此題的supporting point? : thanks. 簡單的說政府打算把菸裡頭的尼古丁含量減少以降低焦油對人體的為害並且題目最後明白表示那些已有煙癮的人會抽更多的菸來彌補每根菸尼古丁的減少量所以這樣的訊息提供了一個預測就是那些成癮者吸入焦油的量不會因為這樣的措施而減少 A選項是針對題目中最後一句:"intend to react to such reductions by smoking correspondingly more cigarettes"而來---->也就是政府給我少多少我就給你吸回多少的意思此外題目並未提供任何訊息是關於未成癮者的換句話說未成癮者會怎樣並不在此題目的探討範圍內並且B是說那些沒有成癮的人也會開始抽更多的菸顯然在題目中並沒有隱射到這部份 -- No doubt, just keep walking -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 118.168.86.68
