作文地带导读:美国法学院入学考试LSAT出题原则……

  The ice on the front windshield of the car had formed when moisture condensed during the night. The ice melted quickly after the car was warmed up the next morning because the defrosting vent, which blows only on the front windshield, was turned on full force. Which of the following, if true, most seriously jeopardizes the validity of the explanation for the speed with which the ice melted?

  (A) The side windows had no ice condensation on them.

  (B) Even though no attempt was made to defrost the back window, the ice there melted at the same rate as did the ice on the front windshield.

  (C) The speed at which ice on a window melts increases as the temperature of the air blown on the window increases.

  (D) The warm air from the defrosting vent for the front windshield cools rapidly as it dissipates throughout the rest of the car.

  (E) The defrosting vent operates efficiently even when the heater, which blows warm air toward the feet or faces of the driver and passengers, is on.

  译文:水汽会在夜晚凝结,在汽车的前挡风玻璃上形成冰。第二天早上汽车逐渐发动起来以后,因为除霜口调到最大,而除霜口吹向前挡风玻璃,因此(在前挡风玻璃上的)冰很快就融化了。

  以下哪一选项,如果是正确的,最严重地威胁到这种关于冰融化速度的解释?

  (A)两边的玻璃没有冰凝结在上面。

  (B)尽管没有采取任何措施对后窗进行解冻,但那儿的冰同前挡风玻璃上的冰的融化速度一样快。

  (C)从除霜口吹向前挡风玻璃的热空气,当它扩散到汽车内其他部分时迅速地冷却。

  (D)即使当把热空气吹向司机和乘客的脚和脸部的暖气打开时,除霜口仍可以很有效率地工作。

  解析:挡风玻璃上的冰融化的速度取决于从除霜口全力吹向前挡风玻璃的空气。如果如(B)所说,没有采取措施对后窗进行解冻,而后窗的冰同前挡风玻璃上的冰融化得一样快,那么就削弱了该解释,因此,(B)是正确答案。在没有其他信息的条件下,(A)中所提到的在边窗上没有冰的凝结同该解释的有效性无关;选项(C)可以支持该解释,因为从解冻风口吹出的空气是热的;(D)和(E)都不能提出一个理由去怀疑是从风口吹出的空气导致了冰的融化,因此都没有威胁到该解释的有效性。从这个例子我们可以看出,五个选项中只有(B)可以实现问题目的,而其他四个选项都不可能实现问题的目的,即只有一个选项是正确的。
