标题: 求教ＧＷＤ１５－３２

Delta products, Inc., has recently switched at least partly from older technologies using fossil fuels to new technologies powered by electricity. The question has been raised whether it can be concluded that for a given level of output, Delta’s operation now causes less fossil fuel to be consumed than it did formerly. The answer, clearly, is yes, since the amount of fossil fuel used to generate the electricity needed to power the new technologies is less than the amount needed to power the older technologies, provided that the level of output is held constant.

In the argument given, the two boldface portions play which of the following roles?

The first identifies the content of the conclusion of the argument; the second provides support for that conclusion.
The first provides support for the conclusion of the argument; the second identifies the content of that conclusion.
The first states the position that the argument opposes; the second states the conclusion of the argument.
Each provides evidence that calls the conclusion of the argument into question.
Each provides support for the conclusion of the argument

个人觉得应该是Ａ，答案是Ｅ，为什么啊？？？？？

Hmm. I like A too.

弄清两点就明白答案为E

1。结论：for a given level of output, Delta’s operation now causes less fossil fuel to be consumed than it did formerly。意思为该公司现在的生产比以前的生产用的燃料少。

2。结论中的operation不是指第一句的该公司的switch, 而是指该公司利用新技术进行的生产。

原文两个黑体部分是前提，支持结论。

支持E。结论不是第一句。

作者: heloise 时间: 2006-5-15 20:15

可是第一句不是提供了背景资料嘛

以下是引用heloise在2006-5-15 20:15:00的发言：

可是第一句不是提供了背景资料嘛

背景资料也是广义的前提，支持结论。另外，选项的对错界限比较明朗，如果你觉得两个选项很难分清对错，也可以对，也可以错，则说明没有找到对错的理由。

>2。结论中的operation不是指第一句的该公司的switch, 而是指该公司利用新技术进行的生产。

同意以上两点，但是第一个黑体只是个事实性的描述，应该时中性的；而结论说的是省燃料，黑体1“Delta products, Inc., has recently switched at least
partly from older technologies using fossil fuels to new technologies powered
by electricity. ”其结果既可能是省也可能是费，其本身不应起到对结论的支持作用吧。

我还是支持A，黑体1确定结论的内容，黑体2支持。

...lawyer_1是大牛但是俺还是觉得A好

作者: beibei649 时间: 2007-1-7 21:11
俺也对A情有独钟，但愿考试时候别遇见这个烂题……

作者: sm0421 时间: 2007-1-8 17:26
应该是A，靠

作者: bystander80 时间: 2007-3-31 18:11

I prefer A too

作者: sunnyswallow 时间: 2007-5-19 10:31

会不会A选项中的context误写成了content?确信的说,第一个boldface不是结论,而是背景,客观存在的事实.由它引出了问题whether use fuel fewer和结论yes.

支持E.具体分析思路为:

原文可以这么还原一下(也就是加了一句话,即that is,不改变原文任何意思)：

Delta products, Inc., has recently switched at least partly from older technologies using fossil fuels to new technologies powered by electricity. The question has been raised whether it can be concluded that for a given level of output, Delta’s operation now causes less fossil fuel to be consumed than it did formerly. The answer, clearly, is yes, (that is, it can be concluded that for a given level of output, Delta’s operation now causes less fossil fuel to be consumed than it did formerly), since the amount of fossil fuel used to generate the electricity needed to power the new technologies is less than the amount needed to power the older technologies, provided that the level of output is held constant.

为了方便分析，再还原一下(把语句稍微调整了一下,不改变原文任何意思)，即：

(BF1)Delta products, Inc., has recently switched at least partly from older technologies using fossil fuels to new technologies powered by electricity.
Furthormore,
(BF2)the amount of fossil fuel used to generate the electricity needed to power the new technologies is less than the amount needed to power the older technologies, provided that the level of output is held constant. Clearly, it can be concluded that for a given level of output, Delta’s operation now causes less fossil fuel to be consumed than it did formerly

我想这样的话,就可以确定选E了.

open to discuss!

当然是E啦,因为结论是能源消耗的减少，首要的条件就是你得用了新技术阿，第一句话不就是说那个公司用了新的技术吗？！ai....

作者: yangflyfree 时间: 2007-12-31 00:29
哪位大哥告诉我D选项是什么意思啊？感觉和E是一个意思啊

d是说两个boldface都对结论进行了质疑，明显不对嘛。

e是说进行了支持。

you can do most boldface questions with the following 3-point procedure:
1) FIND THE CONCLUSION OF THE PASSAGE IN SIMPLE TERMS

in this case, the conclusion is "yes, delta's operations now use less fossil fuel."

2) JUDGE WHETHER THE BOLDFACE PARTS CHALLENGE, SUPPORT, OR ACTUALLY ARE THE CONCLUSION

no need to be more subtle than this, at least at first.
in this case, both boldface parts are PRO-conclusion. neither one of them actually IS the conclusion.

3) SELECT THE APPROPRIATE ANSWER CHOICE

(a) is wrong because it says boldface #1 is the conclusion.
(b) is wrong because it says boldface #2 is the conclusion.
in (c) both parts are wrong; #1 isn't anti-conclusion, and #2 isn't the conclusion.
in (d) both parts are wrong; neither #1 nor #2 is anti-conclusion.
(e) correctly points out that both #1 and #2 are pro-conclusion, but that neither is the actual conclusion.
