Critical Reasoning

试题详情

题目:

The city of Workney, in raising bus fares from $1.00 to $1.25, proposed that 18 fare tokens be sold for $20.00 to alleviate the extra burden of the fare increase on the city's low-income residents.  Critics suggested alternatively that 9 fare tokens be sold for $10.00, because a $20.00 outlay would be prohibitive for low-income riders.
 
The alternative proposal depends on which of the following assumptions?

选项:

A、Low-income residents of Workney will continue to ride the buses in the same numbers despite the fare increase.
B、Low-income riders would be more likely to take advantage of the savings afforded by the 9-token offer than would other riders.
C、The outlay of $10.00 for the purchase of 9 fare tokens would not be prohibitive for low-income bus riders.
D、The proposed fare increase is needed for the purchase of new buses for the city's bus system.
E、Buses provide the only means of public transportation in the city of Workney.

答案:

C

提问王文静老师,这道题我错选A,如果A不成立穷人不坐车的话不就没有必要讨论题目中关于穷人能不能买得起票的问题了吗?

提问:

难道C不是那种问题重述的错误吗?(英吉老师讲的) 我觉得E更合理啊?因为人们买10块九次的卡多,所以建议采取这种类型的,这不是加强了结论的可能性吗?

提问:

我选的是a,我的思路是20贵了所以建议卖10刀,但是即使卖10刀也得有人坐车,这是一个前提条件,所以我选择了a,a选项的错误是不是在后半部分in the same numbers despite the fare increase

提问:

我选的B。我觉得以上结论是基于他们认为low income的人会更需要这笔savings,所以会买10刀的而不是20刀的我。请问这样理解错在哪里?

提问:

感觉C里面说的10块钱对低收入者贵不贵在原文没谈到,原文只是说20块钱的。。
