问题 Anyone who has owned a car knows that saving money in the short run by skimping on relatively minor repairs and routine maintenance will prove very costly in the long run. However, this basic truth is often forgotten by those who call for reduced government spending on social programs.Which of the following is NOT implied by the analogy above as a point of comparison?

选项 A、Money that is spent on repairs and maintenance helps to ensure the continued functioning of a car.
B、Owners can take chances on not maintaining or repairing their cars.
C、In order to keep operating, cars will normally need some work.
D、The problems with a car will become worse if they are not attended to.
E、A car will last for only a limited period of time and then must be replaced.

答案E

解析 首先要看清楚问题中的“…NOT implied by the analogy”。段落推理把“汽车维护”与“政府在社会项目上的开销”进行类比,通过说明短期内在汽车维护上省钱而最终必然代价更大,进而论证政府在社会项目上减少开销必将会造成更大的问题。(E)中的“only”与“must be replaced”在上面段落中无涉及,且也没有类比之处,所以(E)is Not implied,(E)正确;若花在维修上的开销能使车辆持续发挥作用,如(A)所说,那么其类比就是:“花在社会项目上的开销有好作用”;(B)中的类比推理为:减少在社会项目上的钱是在碰运气;(C)、(D)均有比较点、类比点,所以(C)、(D)are all implied。
