D不能说最好.

投诉 不能直接推断出 收视率下降 (虽然按常理可以这么推测)

不能推测出& &题干中的新闻机构的收视率下滑不是由争议报导引起

D不能说最好.
&这不是该新闻机构第一次因争议报导导致投诉&
我的个人见解是：
如果A为正确，也就是说所有news org都有相同的drops in viewership问题，加上前提 the network aired a controversial report on the economy （特殊的条件，别的org没有），就可以推出原因并非是这个report的问题。
总的来说，既然大家都有viewer的减少，那么为什么会是report的关系而减少的呢？因为原文中没有提及其他媒体是否有报道controversial report, 所以可以默认为只有这个network报道了
其它选项：
B的话，这句话是否可以解释viewer drop的原因？正是因为对report的complaints都是regular viewer发出的，所以viewers drop了？显然这句话似乎不太通顺； 那根据上面几位的分析，如果说regular viewer更容易留下来，那么为什么要提他们的complaints，而不是表达viewer的loyalty？显然既然是complaints，就说明complaints可能会造成这些regular viewer的流失， 即进一步推翻了原文的conclusion，所以错
C：我认为是反对主旨的，因为其描述大意是只有当他们收到complaints时候，才会将viewer流失的原因归于report；只有收到complaints，和原文中认为人员流失的原因和complaints没有关系完全矛盾了呀 0 0
D：不是第一次发布负面消息，咋地？原文又没有说以前有过drop还是没drop，况且，如果想表达这种负面消息会带来累计的情绪继而导致viewer的流失，我想原文应该会出现什么since three years ago 这种表示持续时间段的描述了吧？总之我看的时候会觉得挺无关的╮(╯▽╰)╭

用helr方法 相关因果模式，把两件同时发生的事加了因果关系，评估这个关系是否正确
前提：有一份报告（事件一）收视率下降（事件二），观众对报告不满发来投诉
结论：是报告（因）导致了收视率下降（果）
问削弱（原来结论说的是无关问加强，我转了一下，觉得削弱比较顺手）
四个评估方向：因果是否无关，因果是否倒置，是否有因导致的中间因素进而导致果，是否有他因导致果
& && && && && && && && &选项中要涉及“因”+“果”或只有“果”+“他因”，技巧上讲没提到果的或者没有对果有直接影响的都是无效选项
(A) The other major network news organizations reported similar reductions in viewership during the same week.
& && &整个行业收视率都不好，可以理解为某种因素使整个行业都不好，也包括他家的收视率，他因，正确选项
(B) The viewers who registered complaints with the network were regular viewers of the news organization’s programs.
& &&&强调了“因”中的观众是忠实观众，那么这些人不爽了一定会导致收视率下降，反而是加强，相反选项
(C) Major network news organizations publicly attribute drop in viewership to their own reports only when they receive complaints about those reports.
& &&&只有收到抱怨的时候才会归咎于报告的问题，和题干完全一样嘛，相反选项
(D) This was not the first time that this network news organization has aired a controversial report on the economy that has inspired viewers to complain to the network.
& &&&没有涉及“果”，只涉及了因的两个属性，不在评估方向内，无效选项
(E) Most network news viewers rely on network news broadcasts as their primary source of information regarding the economy.
& & 没有涉及“果”无法评估，无效选项

这是曼哈顿论坛上一个筒子的疑问，粗想有点疑点，但是看22和23楼回复，就比较清楚了。我开始选的B。
A major network news organization experienced a drop in viewership in the week following the airing of a controversial report on the economy. The network also received a very large number of complaints regarding the report. The network, however, maintains that negative reactions to the report had nothing to do with its loss of viewers.
Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the network's position?
A.The other major network news organizations reported similar reductions in viewership during the same week.
B.The viewers who registered complaints with the network were regular viewers of the news organization's programs.
C.Major network news organizations publicly attribute drops in viewership to their own reports only when they receive complaints about those reports.
D.This was not the first time that this network news organization has aired a controversial report on the economy that has inspired viewers to complain to the network.
E. Most network news viewers rely on network news broadcasts as their primary source of information regarding the economy.
i have a following question regarding option A : how can we assume in option A that &the other major network news organization& did not air the controversial report ? what if the same report was also aired by &other major networks&(i mean its not something unusual .it does happen that two news channel air the same report ) and that &the report & was a real reason behind the reduction of their viewers .i feel that option A is incomplete in its text .i do agree that in causal questions we have to show the specifics of cause and effect but here in option A we are just referring to the effect without even discussing the presence or absence of cause!!
i guess option A is making unwarranted assumptions
experts please help
PS :: the OA : is A .i am not questioning the OA .but whats bothering me is that option A is making the assumption that i have stated above and i have read in many post of Ron that the answers in strengthening and weakening questions sud stand of their own and sud not make any kind of assumption
Ron plz help me understand

个人理解：A中的另一家organization可能报道了也可能没报道controversial report，因此有可能存在产生其他导致收视率下滑的原因
当然，如果A中加入了限定条件，说另一家没报道也经历了view视频下滑，则更严谨一些

为什么我选的是D，D说这不是该组织第一次做引起观众不满的报道，那是不是就意味着以前有相同情形但是没有发 ...
我之前也想问为什么不选D，后来又仔细看了下，原来D选项只说了因，至于因和果的关系，没有直接点出来，所以我们不确定到底是发生了流失率，还是没有。所以不选。

大意就是判断一个公司的绩效就是拿它跟其它公司进行比较。这个方法就叫做“benchmarking&。“benchmarking&能让这个公司的经理发现更好的practices和提供采取good practice的理由。简单来讲就是，“benchmarking&能让经理发觉别公司的有点，让自己公司取其精华，去其糟粕。E选项就说如果别的公司是通过产品或市场的特殊特殊环境取得成功，那么就说明这个公司“投机取巧”，自身没有good practice可供其它公司借鉴。

List T consists of 30 positive decimals, none of which is an integerm and the sum of the 30 decimals is S. The estimated sum of the 30 decimals, E, is defined as follows. Each decimal in T whose tenth digit is even is rounded up to the neareast integer and each blah blah tenth digit is odd is rounded up to the neareast integer. E is the sum of resulting integers. If 1/3 of the decimals in T have a tenth digit that is even, which of the following is possible value of E-S
1. -16, 2. 6, 3. 10
B. 1 & 2 only
C. 1 & 3 only
D. 2 & 3 only
E. 1, 2, 3

非大牛试着解释下...
先说题目意思：
30个小数，和为S，估算和为E，求E-S的可能值
估算的方法：
小数点后第一位是双数的，向上取整（比如1.22--&2）估算值比原值大，增加的量无限趋近0.1（当小数点后第一位为8），最大无限趋近1 这里注意考虑到0是双数，刚才忽略了！
小数点后第一位是单数的，向下取整（比如2.13--&2）估算值比原值小，减少的量最小为0.1，最大无限趋近1
这道题求可能的值，按照通常的思路，就是先求极值（确定最大值和最小值，看选项是否在区间内）
总共30个数，10个为单，单个差值值域(0.1，1)，20个为双，单个差值值域 (-1，-0.1] 值域修正了下
最大值=增量最大+减量最小=1*10-0.1*20=8
最小值=增量最小+减量最大=0.1*10-1*20=-19
那么显然I和II是可能的，III是不可能的，故选B
我是这么考虑的...不知道有没有解释清楚...

Snowmaking machines work by spraying a mist that freezes immediately on contact with cold air. Because the sudden freezing kills bacteria, QuickFreeze is planning to market a wastewater purification system that works on the same principle. The process works only when temperatures are cold, however, so municipalities using it will still need to maintain a conventional system.
Which of the following, if true, provides the strongest grounds for a prediction that municipalities will buy QuickFreeze's purification system despite the need to maintain a conventional purification system as well?

The process works only when temperature are cold, however, so municipalities using it will need to maintain a conventional system.　　造雪机通过喷撒一层接触到冷空气后立即凝固的薄雾来运作，这种突然的水汽凝固可以杀灭细菌。QF 公司计划销售一种基于这种原理的废水净化系统。但是由于这种灭菌过程只能在低温下运作，所以运用这种系统的市政机关还是需要维持传统的净化系统。　　Which of the following, if true, provides the strongest grounds for a prediction that municipalities will buy QuickFreeze’s purification system despite the need to maintain a conventional purification system as well?　　下列哪一项为真时能为这一预计提供最强的支持：尽管市政机关也需要维持传统的净化系统，但它们还是会购买QF公司生产的净化系统?　　A. Bacteria are not the only impurities that must be removed from wastewater.　　细菌不是唯一需要从废水中去除的污物。　　B. Many municipalities have old wastewater purification systems that need to be replaced　　很多市政原有的旧废水净化系统需要更新。　　C. Conventional wastewater purification systems have not been fully successful in killing bacteria at cold temperatures.　　传统的废水净化系统在低温下并不能完全成功地杀灭细菌。　　D. During times of warm weather, when it is not in use, QuickFreeze’s purification system requires relatively little maintenance.　　天气暖和，QF废水净化系统不使用的时候几乎不需要保养维护。　　E. Places where the winters are cold rarely have a problem of water shortage.　　有寒冬的地方几乎没有水源稀缺问题。正确的答案是：C我的思路：原文说：但是由于这种灭菌过程只能在低温下运作，所以运用这种系统的市政机关还是需要维持传统的净化系统。从这里可以推出：运用这种系统的市政机关，需要维持传统的净化系统的原因，是，他可以提供低温（灭菌只有在低温下运作）。不然原文也不会将低温和传统净化系统联系到一起了。。。。所以，我在找答案的时候，就一直在想找传统净化系统的有点，而直接排除了C!!大牛们能来指导一下解题思路吗？谢谢

我感觉，这道题只看题目不看问题会很麻烦诶：题目：有着snowmaking machine核心技术的wastewater purification system有缺陷，所以政府就让它与传统净水系统一同工作。 & & &可见，传统设备可以弥补新设备的缺陷，但是目前不知道传统设备有什么问题。问题：找出“政府有传统设备，仍然需要有缺陷的新设备”的支持论据。 & & &可见，传统设备有缺陷需要新设备弥补。我们要做的：找到传统设备的缺陷，即题目中的新设备的最大功能：杀菌。关键在问题部分吧，OG CR开头就说：You might find it helpful to read the question first.共勉，轻拍
