标题: 费费逻辑宝典 124 [打印本页] 作者: Snazzy 时间: 2003-12-18 11:25 标题: 费费逻辑宝典 124 124. It is repeatedly claimed that the dumping of nuclear waste poses no treat to people living nearby. If this claim could be made with certainty, there would be no reason for not locating sites in areas of dense population. But the policy of dumping nuclear waste only in the more sparsely populated regions indicates, at the very least, some misgiving about safety on the part of those responsible for policy. Which one of the following, if true, would most seriously weaken the argument? (A) Evacuation plants in the event of an accident could not be guaranteed to work perfectly except where the population is small. (B) In the event of an accident, it is certain that fewer people would be harmed in a sparsely populated than in a densely populated area. (C) Dumping of nuclear waste poses fewer economic and bureaucratic problems in sparsely populated than in densely populated areas. (D) There are dangers associated with chemical waste, and it, too, is dumped away from areas of dense population. (E) Until there is no shred of doubt that nuclear dumps are safe, it makes sense to situate them where they pose the least threat to the public.
Just can't understand why C is the answer since it supports the point.作者: lingxia 时间: 2003-12-18 12:03
c就是提出一个其他的原因，来解释这个现象，削弱了作者提出的对 people living nearby 的考虑作者: qww 时间: 2003-12-18 12:15
再三强调倾倒核废料对周边的居民不影响。如果这个声明确实成立，则没有理由不在人口密集区设立。但是倾倒核废料的政策仅要求在人口稀疏的地方这点说明，至少有很低的疑虑在安全方面的考虑。 上面是大体意思。 Dumping of nuclear waste poses fewer economic and bureaucratic problems in sparsely populated than in densely populated areas。 C 说在人口稀少的地方倾倒是因为较少的经济和管理问题。 提出他因，从而消弱了是因为安全方面的推论。作者: Snazzy 时间: 2003-12-18 12:48
thanks, qww and lingxia but is this sentence grammatically right??? -- good SC though

推理1:核污染对周围居民的生活没有影响 不在人口稠密区设置核电站是没有意义的
推理2 但是，政策指出要把核污染排在距离人口密集区远的地方 推理1有问题
注意推理2才是选项问的argument，推理1只是sub-argument。。。
Which one of the following, if true, would most seriously weaken the argument?
(A)Evacuation plants in the event of an accident could not be guaranteed to work perfectly except where the population is small.
Evacuation plants是不是working perfectly和题目讨论的dumping nuclear power无关
(B) In the event of an accident, it is certain that fewer people would be harmed in a sparsely populated than in a densely populated area. 削弱推理1，加强推理2
(C) Dumping of nuclear waste poses fewer economic and bureaucratic problems in sparsely populated than in densely populated areas.
人口稀疏地区比人口稠密地区因为核污染产生的经济和治理问题少，而不是由于安全问题的考虑要排在人口稀疏的地区，是他因。
(D) There are dangers associated with chemical waste, and it, too, is dumped away from areas of dense population. 无关
(E) Until there is no shred（少量的） of doubt（enough certainty） that nuclear dumps are safe, it makes sense to situate them where they pose the least threat to the public.
削弱推理1，加强推理2
