The higher the level of certain vitamins and minerals in the bloodstream, the better a person's lung function, as measured by the amount of air the person can expel in one second. The lung function of smokers is significantly worse, on average, than that of nonsmokers. Clearly, therefore, one way for smokers to improve their lung function is for them to increase their intake of foods that are rich in these helpful vitamins and minerals.

Which of the following is an assumption on which this argument depends?

(A) Smokers are less likely than nonsmokers to have diets that are rich in vitamins and minerals.
(B) The lung function of smokers whose diets are rich in those vitamins and minerals is generally better than that of nonsmokers with comparable diets.
(C) People whose diets are deficient in those vitamins and minerals do not typically have other health problems in addition to diminished lung function.
(D) Stopping smoking will not typically improve lung function more than any diet changes can.
(E) Smoking does not introduce into the body chemicals that prevent the helpful vitamins and minerals from entering the bloodstream.
正確答案是e
我會選e但b選項一直很困擾我
有vitamins and minerals diet的smoker的肺的功能會比有有vitamins and minerals diet的nonsmoker好 這不就證明了結論ㄇ
因為平均來說非吸煙者的肺功能會比吸菸者的肺功能好
所以當吸煙者選擇vitamins and minerals diet時的肺功能還比非吸煙者有相同飲食來的好
所以吸煙者要提升肺的功能就用多吃vitamins and mineral
是因為b選項當assunmption不夠有力ㄇ?我推論太多ㄇ?
還是因為這裡的比較沒辦法看出煙者要提升肺的功能就用多吃vitamins and mineral

拜託各位幫幫我

(B) 是已知 (i.e. 平行敘述),沒有前提的功能
(E) 答案長相:排除他因.

不太確定vicky大大的推論是什麼意思？

「所以當吸煙者選擇vitamins and minerals diet時的肺功能還比非吸煙者有相同飲食來的好 ~
所以吸煙者要提升肺的功能就用多吃vitamins and mineral 」

建議不要被選項拉著走…
題目已經有結論：therefore, "one way" for smokers to improve their lung function .....
就要去想…為何它可以如此下這樣的結論…背後應該有其假設！

(b)smokers的肺功能比nonsmokers的好…~~完全跟結論沒有交集

(e)not ........chemicals that prevent the helpful vitamins and minerals 代表這個way是假設是不會被其它因素干擾！！

以上參考○才立！

題目說要改善就要多吃富含維生素的營養, 這讓我想到是否抽菸者覺少飲食富含維生素相比於不抽菸者, 但GMAC通常不要去評論到個人的習慣, 這選項說抽菸者的個人習性, 很難是完全的, 或許有抽菸者飲食跟正常人一樣甚至吃的更多維生素, 但仍舊是肺功能較差. 與個人習性個性有關的比較不會是很好的假設重點, 因為總會有差異性.
(B) The lung function of smokers whose diets are rich in those vitamins and minerals is generally better than that of nonsmokers with comparable diets.
飲食習慣的比較無關
(C) People whose diets are deficient in those vitamins and minerals do not typically have other health problems in addition to diminished lung function.
other <== 通常不會是正確答案的選項, 不要離題談other Noun
(D) Stopping smoking will not typically improve lung function more than any diet changes can.
戒菸離題
(E) Smoking does not introduce into the body chemicals that prevent the helpful vitamins and minerals from entering the bloodstream.
=> Smoking does not introduce chemicals into the body (為了修飾chemicals才改成上句)that prevent the helpful vitamins and minerals from entering the bloodstream.
抽菸不會造成維生素的攝取阻礙, 所以抽菸者多吃富含維生素的營養可以解決問題, 這是假設前提.
