问题 Despite the fact that the health-inspection procedures for catering establishments are more stringent than those for ordinary restaurants, more of the cases of food poisoning reported to the city health department were brought on by banquets served by catering services than were brought on by restaurant meals. Which of the following, if true, helps explain the apparent paradox in the statement above?
选项 A、A significantly larger number of people eat in restaurants than attend catered banquets in any given time period.
B、Catering establishments know how many people they expect to serve, and therefore are less likely than restaurants to have, and serve, leftover food, a major source of food poisoning.
C、Many restaurants provide catering services for banquets in addition to serving individual meals.
D、The number of reported food-poisoning cases at catered banquets is unrelated to whether the meal is served on the caterer’s or the client’s premises.
E、People are unlikely to make a connection between a meal they have eaten and a subsequent illness unless the illness strikes a group who are in communication with one another.
答案E
解析 本题目的让我们解释the apparent paradox：包办酒席的机构卫生检查严格，但上报的更多的食物中毒是由包办酒席的机构引起的。人们一般不太可能把一顿饭与其后的疾病联系起来，因为人们并不能确认是否是这顿饭引起的病，但是若在banquets中的人们很多都在吃过酒席之后病了，那么这些相互认识的人就会建立起这种联系，并且集体上诉至市卫生部门，所以(E)正确；(A)、(B)起到部分反对的作用，与问题目的不符，所以不正确；我们并不知道报道的精确性，并且报道的内容也与推理无关，所以(D)不对；本题没做对的考生有80％选择(C)，但(C)只表明很多餐馆在提供个人饭菜之外，也提供包办酒席的服务，但并没有说明包办酒席服务所占比例以及中毒情况，所以不能够起到解释作用、注意：GMAT的逻辑推理题的推理大多只在一个层面上进行，且不能进行段落之外信息的进一步推导。
