标题: 实在不明白CR Section B-19
19.    The U.S. census is not perfect: thousands of Americans probably go uncounted. However, the basic statistical portrait of the nation painted by the census is accurate. Certainly some of the poor go uncounted, particularly the homeless; but some of the rich go uncounted as well, because they are often abroad or traveling between one residence and another.
Which of the following is an assumption on which the argument above depends?
(A) Both the rich and the poor have personal and economic reasons to avoid being counted by the census.
(B) All Americans may reasonably be classified as either poor or rich.
(C) The percentage of poor Americans uncounted by the census is close to the percentage of rich Americans uncounted.
(D) The number of homeless Americans is approximately equal to the number of rich Americans.
(E) The primary purpose of the census is to analyze the economic status of the American population.


答案是c, the basic statistical portrait 意思不懂, 答案更不明白

这题说的好像应该是这个调查呢也就basic statistical portrait 基本上是反映了正确的情况
因为要同时反映富人和穷人的情况,所以当穷人少了一些被统计的时候,富人的比例也应该相应的减少,既文中所说两者比例应该大致相同。这样呢,就算统计时会漏掉一些人,当结果还是基本正确的。
关键是两边被忽律的人各自所占的比例基本相同

100个穷人100个富人的综合意见应该大致上和80个富人及80个穷人的意见相同,这就是为什么人少了,还能得出一个比较正确的结论
