问题 For each of Questions 1 to 9, compare Quantity A and Quantity B, using additional information centered above the two quantities if such information is given. Select one of the following four answer choices and fill in the corresponding oval to the right of the question.
(A)Quantity A is greater.
(B)Quantity B is greater.
(C)The two quantities are equal.
(D)The relationship cannot be determined from the information given.
A symbol that appears more than once in a question has the same meaning throughout the question.

选项
答案C
解析 When comparing these quantities, it is important to remember that a nonzero number and its negative have the same absolute value. For example, |-2| = |2| =2. Keeping this in mind, you can see that the positive integers 2, 3, 4, and 5 and the negative integers -2, -3, -4, and -5 all satisfy the inequalities 2|n|5, and that these are the only such integers. Thus, the set X consists of the integers -5, -4, -3, -2, 2, 3, 4, and 5. The greatest of these integers is 5, and its absolute value is 5. The least of these integers is -5, and its absolute value is also 5. Therefore, Quantity A is equal to Quantity B. The correct answer is Choice C.
