[Critical Reasoning]

试题详情

题目:

Press Secretary:  Our critics claim that the President's recent highway project cancellations demonstrate a vindictive desire to punish legislative districts controlled by opposition parties.  They offer as evidence the fact that 90 percent of the projects canceled were in such districts.  But all of the canceled projects had been identified as wasteful in a report written by respected nonpartisan auditors.  So the President's choice was clearly motivated by sound budgetary policy, not partisan politics.
 
Which of the following is an assumption on which the press secretary's argument depends?

选项:

A、Canceling highway projects was not the only way for the President to punish legislative districts controlled by opposition parties.
B、The scheduled highway projects identified as wasteful in the report were not mostly projects in districts controlled by the President's party.
C、The number of projects canceled was a significant proportion of all the highway projects that were to be undertaken by the government in the near future.
D、The highway projects canceled in districts controlled by the President's party were not generally more expensive than the projects canceled in districts controlled by opposition parties.
E、Reports by nonpartisan auditors are not generally regarded by the opposition parties as a source of objective assessments of government projects.

答案:

B

提问:

老师您好, 我所不解的是一道逻辑假设题。 在做assumption的题目时,我脑子里首先想到的是去看选项是否有主句的否定词,然后通过这个小技巧留下了A,B,E。 接下来看到选项A提到not the only way for the President to punish legislative districts controlled by opposition parties.原文并没有要知道是否是the only way,所以我个人认为这个选项与原文谈的不是一个主题,所以排除。 对于B,觉得没什么错误,但是也不敢确定,就先放着。 对于E, Reports by nonpartisan auditors are not generally regarded by the opposition parties as a source of objective assessments of government projects. 正好看到文中说report是written by respected nonpartisan auditors,心想如果假设了这些reports都not generally regarded by the opposition parties ,那就更保证了可信度。所以就有点糊里糊涂选了E。 结果还是做错了,应该选B。 对于B的理解还是有点模糊,希望老师给予指点,谢谢老师~ 题目我也粘贴在下方(第一次提问有点不知所措):) Press Secretary: Our critics claim that the President's recent highway project cancellations demonstrate a vindictive desire to punish legislative districts controlled by opposition parties.
