大全-A-12

12.   Are you still reading the other newspaper in town? Did you know that the Daily Bugle is owned by an out-of-town business syndicate that couldn’t care less about the people of Gotham City? Read the Daily Clarion, the only real voice of the people of Gotham City!

Which of the following most directly refutes the argument raised in the advertisement above?

(A) Over half of the advertising revenues of the Daily Clarion come from firms whose headquarters are located outside of Gotham City.

(B) The Daily Clarion usually devotes more of its pages to out-of-town news than does the Daily Bugle.

(C) Nearly 40 percent of the readers of the Daily Clarion reside outside the limits of Gotham City.

(D) The editor-in-chief and all the other members of the editorial staff of the Daily Bugle have lived and worked in Gotham City for ten years or more.

(E) The Daily Bugle has been published in Gotham City for a longer time than has the Daily Clarion.

我觉得应该是"could not care more"才通吧. 答案是D, 但是B也有削弱的作用啊, 是不是因为B不是直接针对原因反驳,而涉及了一点题外推理呢?(因为题目没有说明news和real voice存在联系)

1。should be "could not care more"

2。C报纸比B报纸报道更多镇外新闻不表示它反映本镇人的声音小。它可以表达本镇人对外界的看法。还是本镇人的声音，故削弱不了结论。

对于这题，我也有同样的问题，“couldn't care less"是双重否定，意思应为"could care more"，不知这样的理解对吗？如果是这样，好像这道题就有问题了，我感觉应该是象2楼说的是"couldn't care more",可是看过以前的解释，都还是"couldn't care less",现在就搞不清到底是题错了还是我理解错了。

请赐教！

我觉得应该是couldn't care less，表示“少得不能再少了”，即很少

couldn't care more应该是“多得不能再多了”，即很多

不知道说得对不对

大家有没有注意到问题里说的DIRECTLY REFUTES这个词? D更直接的反驳了. 原文说OWNER是城外的, 那怎么直接反驳呢?D说我们的编辑都是城里的老员工了.所以直接反驳了. B根本没题城内新闻的事情. 按OG的说法是unrelated.
