Critical Reasoning

试题详情

文章:

Citizens of Parktown are worried by the increased frequency of serious crimes committed by local teenagers. In response, the city government has instituted a series of measures designed to keep teenagers at home in the late evening. Even if the measures succeed in keeping teenagers at home, however, they are unlikely to affect the problem that concerns citizens, since most crimes committed by local teenagers take place between 3 p.m. and 6 p.m.

题目:

Which of the following, if true, most substantially weakens the argument?

选项:

A、Similar measures adopted in other places have failed to reduce the number of teenagers on the streets in the late evening. The crimes committed by teenagers in the afternoon are mostly small thefts and inconsequential vandalism. 
B、Teenagers are much less likely to commit serious crimes when they are at home than when they are not at home. 
C、Any decrease in the need for police patrols in the late evening would not mean that there could be more intensive patrolling in the afternoon. 
D、The schools in Parktown have introduced a number of after-school programs that will be available to teenagers until 6 p.m. on weekday afternoons

答案:

B

提问:

老师你好, 这道题我自己的理解是:因为人们在P担心青少年的高犯罪频率,所有政府想了一个办法就是让青少年晚上呆在家里。但是就算让青少年呆在家里,也没有办法解决这个事情。因为青少年犯罪事件出现在3:00pm-6:00pm. 【也就是说这个解决方法没有用,这个算不算是结论呢】 我很快的排掉了A/D因为无关 但是B/C/D我就很纠结,麻烦老师指点一下谢谢~
