问题 The following data sufficiency problems consist of a question and two statements, labeled (1) and (2), in which certain data are given. You have to decide whether the data given in the statements are sufficient for answering the question. Using the data given in the statements plus your knowledge of mathematics and everyday facts (such as the number of days in July or the meaning of counterclockwise), you must indicate whether
   A.  Statement (1) ALONE is sufficient, but statement (2) alone is not sufficient.
   B.  Statement (2) ALONE is sufficient, but statement (1) alone is not sufficient.
   C.  BOTH statements TOGETHER are sufficient, but NEITHER statement ALONE is sufficient.
   D.  EACH statement ALONE is sufficient.
   E.  Statements (1) and (2) TOGETHER are NOT sufficient. [br] A dairy farmer has two milk pails, M and P. Milk pail M is 1/3 full. How much milk is in P relative to M?
   (1) If M is poured into P, P will be full.
   (2) Milk pail P is smaller than M.

选项

答案 E

解析 alone is insufficient, because M could be the same size as P and 2/3 full to start with, or it could be 1/3 the size of P and empty to start with. (2) alone is insufficient, because it tells us nothing about the relative amounts of milk. If the statements are combined, there is still no clear answer, because M could be 2/3 the size of P and 1/2 full to start with, or it could be 1/3 the size of P and empty to start with.
