　　难易程度：★★★★

　　题目题材：道路交通

　　题目：

　　The following appeared in an editorial in a Prunty County newspaper.

　　"In an attempt to improve highway safety, Prunty County recently(1) lowered its speed limit from 55 miles per hour to 45 on all major county roads. But the 55 mph limit should be restored, because this safety fort has failed. Most drivers are exceeding the new speed limit(4) and the accident rate throughout Prunty County (2)has decreased only slightly(3). If we want to improve the safety of our roads, we should instead undertake the same kind of road improvement project that Butler County completed five years ago(7): increasing lane widths and resurfacing rough roads(8). Today, major Butler County roads still have a 55 mph speed limit, yet there were 25 percent fewer reported(6) accidents in Butler County this past year than there were five years ago(5)."

　　提纲：

　　(1) The author fails to rule out the possibility that not enough time has passed to determine the fectiveness of this change in reducing the accident rate.

　　(2) The author ignores the possibility that the accident rate on the county&aposs major roads has decreased while on minor roads not subject to the speed-limit reduction it has increased.

　　(3) The argument assumes that all other factors affecting highway accident rates have remained unchanged since the county lowered its speed limit.

　　(4) The fact that most drivers are exceeding the new speed limit does not indicate that the policy is infective.

　　(5) The author unfairly implies that the higher speed limit in Butler County has not served to increase the incidence of road accidents in that county.

　　(6) The cited statistic involves only "reported" accidents in Butler County, we do not know the percentage of accidents which are going unreported in that county.

　　(7) The situation at Prunty County and Butler County may not be comparable.

　　(8) The author fails to demonstrate that road improvement will be both sufficient and necessary to guarantee fewer accidents in Prunty County.

　　注：题目中括号里的数字表明这句话体现的是提纲中第几号缺陷。
