Critical Reasoning

试题详情

题目:

When a polygraph test is judged inconclusive, this is no reflection on the examinee. Rather, such a judgment means that the test has failed to show whether the examinee was truthful or untruthful. Nevertheless, employers will sometimes refuse to hire a job applicant because of an inconclusive polygraph test result.

Which of the following conclusions can most properly be drawn from the information above?

选项:

A、Most examinees with inconclusive polygraph test results are in fact untruthful.
B、Polygraph tests should not be used by employers in the consideration of job applicants.
C、An inconclusive polygraph test result is sometimes unfairly held against the examinee.
D、A polygraph test indicating that an examinee is untruthful can sometimes be mistaken.
E、Some employers have refused to consider the results of polygraph tests when evaluating job applicants.

答案:

C

提问:

老师, 这道题我选了D,正确答案C。 其实我的理解是:因为说到底是truthful还是untruthful的,是inconclusive的。 我对inconclusive的理解是:非决定性的,不确定的。所以这个测谎的结果可能是错误的。 C选项说的是unfairly。也就是不公平的。感觉有些发散。原文没有提到是否公平。 比下来,觉得C比D好。 麻烦老师讲讲,应该具体怎么理解? 谢谢。
