[問題] PP1的CR 第20題

[maumaumau (為未來而努力喲~~)]

For years the beautiful Renaissance buildings in Palitito have been damaged
by exhaust from the many tour buses that come to the city.  There has been
little parking space, so most buses have idled at the curb during each stop
on their tour, and idling produces as much exhaust as driving.  The city has
now provided parking that accommodates a third of the tour buses, so damage
to Palitito's buildings from the buses' exhaust will diminish significantly.

Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the argument?

(A) The exhaust from Palitito's few automobiles is not a significant threat
to Palitito's buildings.
(B) Palitito's Renaissance buildings are not threatened by pollution other
than engine exhaust.
(C) Tour buses typically spend less than one-quarter of the time they are in
Palitito transporting passengers from one site to another.
(D) More tourists come to Palitito by tour bus than by any other single means
of transportation.
(E) Some of the tour buses that are unable to find parking drive around
Palitito while their passengers are visiting a site.

答案是C

我想請問題目的倒數第二行的 a third of要怎麼解釋

然後E為什麼不對呢

謝謝大家了~~

推 toitynoity:應該是三分之一~ E較不相關,沒有直接講出造成污染原因
→ maumaumau:請教那C說tour bus花較少的時間為何算是support呀
推 toitynoity:第三行so most... as driving 講出idling跟dirving都一
→ toitynoity:樣造成空氣污染, 所以在古蹟停留的時間越短傷害越少
→ toitynoity:希望我的解讀正確啦~~ ^_^
→ maumaumau:感謝感謝~~知道囉~~
推 cecilyliu:less 1/4:transporting(driving)=3/4:idling
→ cecilyliu:肯定idling確實造成exhaust,so parking增加才有用
→ cecilyliu:support其原因
