GWD7-Q41:
Magazine Publisher: Our magazine does not have a liberal bias. It is true that when a book review we had commissioned last year turned out to express distinctly conservative views, we did not publish it until we had also obtained a second review that took a strongly liberal position. Clearly, however, our actions demonstrate not a bias in favor of liberal views but rather a commitment to a balanced presentation of diverse opinions.
Determining which of the following would be most useful in evaluating the cogency of the magazine publisher’s response?
A. Whether any other magazines in which the book was reviewed carried more than one review of the book
B. Whether the magazine publishes unsolicited book reviews as well as those that it has commissioned
C. Whether in the event that a first review commissioned by the magazine takes a clearly liberal position the magazine would make any efforts to obtain further reviews
D. Whether the book that was the subject of the two reviews was itself written from a clearly conservative or a clearly liberal point of view
E. Whether most of the readers of the magazine regularly read the book reviews that the magazine publishes
我对这段话的理解是这样的:我们的杂志没有liberal偏见。有这样一个事实:去年,我们委托写的一个书评的观点是明显保守的,我们没有发表它直到我们收到了第二个书评,第二个书评表达的是自由的立场。很显然,我们的行为证明:我们不是偏爱自由的观点,而是承诺平衡不同观点的表达。
答案:c。
这个选项我就没有看明白,请高手指点。
发错地方了,难怪没有兄弟帮忙。不好意思
如果说这个出版社是客观的,那么就算一开始收到的书评是自由立场的,这个自由立场的书评也应该等到有保守立场的书评出现才会发表。
就是说,如果出版社是偏向于某一方的话,只要有符合自己观点的书评出现就会马上发表,而不需要等对立的观点才发表。
