[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:

老师说B把原文的REASON补全了;我翻译的-最近取消的工程说明了为了惩罚反对党,但是原因是这些报告wasteful,由不参与政治的审计人写的;因此总统取消项目的原因是因为预算不是因为党内斗争;目前这个逻辑很完整,我自己脑补不出来什么assumption-如果选项中有好的assumption我直接选,也根据做题方法是可以想想排除他因也是一种assumption,选项中有证明Project本身不涉及党派斗争,就是排除他因,可以选;另外就是考虑到选项立场/发起人一致,也会有说服力;B中说了项目不是总统控制的;我当时第一反应是如果总统控制就应该不被reject,总统自己的项目当然要实施,那不被总统控制的项目被reject还是可能涉及了党派?我想问一下assumption的题目除了清晰的assumption/排除他因-这个类似于增加/立场角度/还有什么套路?另外就是我没懂B的逻辑
