标题: GWD-21-28

Since it has become known that several of a bank’s top executives have been buying shares in their own bank, the bank’s depositors, who had been worried by rumors that the bank faced impending financial collapse, have been greatly relieved.  They reason that since top executives evidently have faith in the bank’s financial soundness, those worrisome rumors must be false.  They might well be overoptimistic, however since corporate executives have sometimes bought shares in their own company in a calculated attempt to dispel negative rumors about the company’s health.

 

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

 

  1. The first summarizes the evidence used in the reasoning called into question by the argument; the second states the counterevidence on which the argument relies.
  2. The first summarizes the evidence used in the reasoning called into question by the argument; the second is an intermediate conclusion supported by that evidence.
  3. The first is an intermediate conclusion that forms part of the reasoning called into question by the argument; the second is evidence that undermines the support for this intermediate conclusion.

  4. The first is an intermediate conclusion that forms part of the reasoning called into question by the argument; the second is the main conclusion of the argument.
  5. The first is an intermediate conclusion that forms part of the reasoning called into question by the argument; the second states a further conclusion supported by this intermediate conclusion.

   Answer: B

Since 的后面可能是结论吗？those woorisome rumors must be false.

本题应该是d选吧???请楼主提供ans

Since这句为the bank’s depositors的结论(但属于本文真正argument所反驳的)

其实since是在表述the bank’s depositors因为这个原因而做出those worrisome rumors must be false.的结论

没错，ans 是D.

但是我觉得， since 后面的不应该是答案，主句those worrisom rumors must be false 才对。

还有，答案D中什么叫intermediate conclusion ？

就是the bank’s depositors他所做出的结论但非整篇argument的论证

 

请指教

D中所说的first is the intermediate conclusion是不对的，因为the first part是从since......，明显the first boldface part是evidence。

晕…..这题第一个为intermediate conclusion

就是the bank’s depositors他所得出的结论不是evidence

若对intermediate conclusion有疑问的人请看lawyer对intermediate conclusion有详细解释
