标题: 请教GWD-1-22

City Official:  At City Hospital, uninsured patients tend to have shorter stays and fewer procedures performed than do insured patients, even though insured patients, on average, have slightly less serious medical problems at the time of admission to the hospital than uninsured patients have.  Critics of the hospital have concluded that the uninsured patients are not receiving proper medical care.  However, this conclusion is almost certainly false. Careful investigation has recently shown two things:  insured patients have much longer stays in the hospital than necessary, and they tend to have more procedures performed than are medically necessary.



In the city official’s argument, the two boldface portions play which of the following roles?




  1. The first states the conclusion of the city official’s argument; the second provides support for that conclusion.

  2. The first is used to support the conclusion of the city official’s argument; the second states that conclusion.

  3. The first was used to support the conclusion drawn by hospital critics; the second states the position that the city official’s argument opposes.

  4. The first was used to support the conclusion drawn by hospital critics; the second provides support for the conclusion of the city official’s argument.

  5. The first states the position that the city official’s argument opposes; the second states the conclusion of the city official’s argument.

答案是E, 可是我觉得city official的观点此处并不明确,他只是陈述一种现象, insured 比 uninsured呆的时间长。得不出他的argument是insured patients have much longer stays in the hospital than necessary, and they tend to have more procedures performed than are medically necessary.


还有argument究竟是(肯定的)观点还是(否定性)的辩论呢?



请大家指教一下!

Critics of the hospital have concluded that the uninsured patients are not receiving proper medical care.


However, this conclusion is almost certainly false


注意,整段话是City Official说的,因此其中的观点除了明确说是XXX的观点外,都是他的观点。注意Cirtics of hospital have concluded that..However,陈述了批评者的观点,态度转折后说明的就是他的position或者说conclusion,后面是对conclusion的解释。


我觉着BF题一定要分清楚谁的态度/结论,因为里面可能出现二个或者多个人及观点


argument没有肯定/否定的含义,只是是对某个问题回应。


供参考



PS:为什么不用各位前辈整理好的讨论贴呢?里面讨论很精彩啊~

我还以为整段话不是City Official说的,谢谢大侠指点。


我只在语法区查了一下讨论,现在明白是分区讨论的了。
