Almost all forms of large-scale electric power generation pollute the environment; the less electric power consumed, therefore, the less pollution created. Ordinary refrigerators account for 15 percent to 25 percent of the average United States household's annual electric power consumption, but energy efficient refrigerators use 20 percent to 30 percent less electricity than ordinary refrigerators.
3. If the information above is correct, which of the following conclusions does it best support?
A. The increasingly widespread use of energy efficient refrigerators will ensure that less pollution will be produced twenty years from now than is currently being produced.
D. The replacement of ordinary refrigerators with energy-efficient refrigerators can help reduce the amount of new pollution created.
2.
我认为D里的new pollution指的是从现在开始所有冰箱产生的污染。
换句话说,D也在作比较,比较的是
I:从现在起不replace普通冰箱,所产生的new pollution
II:replace后产生的new pollution
或说是从现在这个时间点,开始分叉的两个平行线,唯一不同的变量是冰箱类型的占比,其中一个毫无疑问环保冰箱更多。
若是如此D非常明确是正确的。
但是,一些书籍里似乎(并没有明确解释)把D里的new pollution解释为除文中提及的pollution之外的“其他类型”的污染。
这是何以得出的?
当我说I wrote some fictions. I want to write some new ones.为何这个new就会变成指代除fiction之外的literature类型,而不是指新的fictions?
