标题: 几个问题

1 Guidebook writer: I have visited hotels throughout the country and have noticed that in those built before 1930 the quality of the original carpentry work is generally superior to that in hotels built afterward. Clearly carpenters working on hotels before 1930 typically worked with more skill, care, and effort than carpenters who have worked on hotels built subsequently.

Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the guidebook writer’s argument? D

The quality of original carpentry in hotels is generally far superior to the quality of original carpentry in other structures, such as houses and stores.
Hotels built since 1930 can generally accommodate more guests than those built before 1930.
The materials available to carpenters working before 1930 were not significantly different in quality from the materials available to carpenters working after 1930.
The better the quality of original carpentry in a building, the less likely that building is to fall into disuse and be demolished.
The average length of apprenticeship for carpenters has decreased significantly since 1930

这道题的逻辑是什么呢？选项又是怎么配合的呢？

2 As a large corporation in a small country, Hachnut wants its managers to have international experience, so each year it sponsors management education abroad for its management trainees. Hachnut has found, however, that the attrition rate of graduates from this program is very high, with many of them leaving Hachnut to join competing firms soon after completing the program. Hachnut does use performance during the program as a criterion in deciding among candidates for management positions, but both this function and the goal of providing international experience could be achieved in other ways. Therefore, if the attrition problem cannot be successfully addressed, Hachnut should discontinue the sponsorship program.

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

The first describes a practice that the argument seeks to justify; the second states a judgment that is used in support of a justification for that practice.
The first describes a practice that the argument seeks to explain; the second presents part of the argument’s explanation of that practice.
The first introduces a practice that the argument seeks to evaluate; the second provides grounds for holding that the practice cannot achieve its objective.
The first introduces a policy that the argument seeks to evaluate; the second provides grounds for holding that the policy is not needed.
The first introduces a consideration supporting a policy that the argument seeks to evaluate; the second provides evidence for concluding that the policy should be abandoned.

我为应该选D，请问D为什么比C差

第一个题目应该出错在 generalization:
before
1930 the quality of the original carpentry work is generally
superior to that in hotels built afterward.
选项说：The
better the quality of original carpentry in a building, the less likely
that building is to fall into disuse and be demolished. 因为不好的建筑反过来说就会不存在，能留下的都是好的，所以不能很广泛的说1930都好。在进一步想，现在的房子不代表不好或不能经得起考验呀，因为时间还久。两个物体在不同的时间长度作比较容易出问题。

黑体字那题，我觉得可能是在这句话出问题 holding that the policy is not needed.

就是陈述理由的方式，D讲政策不需要C 讲政策达不到目标的原因。

因为那句话只讲别的方法可以达成，没有指出他为何不需要的原因。
