Mel: The official salary for judges has always been too low to attract the best Candidates to the job. The legislature’s move to raise the salary has done nothing to improve the situation, because it was coupled with a ban on receiving money for lectures and teaching engagements.
Pat: No, the raise in salary really does improve the situation. Since very few judges teach or give lectures, the ban will have little or no negative effect.
Pat’s response to Mel is inadequate in that it （nlhsz提供）
A. attempts to assess how a certain change will affect potential members of a group by providing evidence about its effect on the current members.
B. mistakenly takes the cause of a certain change to be an effect of that change.
C. attempts to argue that a certain change will have a positive effect merely
D.by pointing to the absence of negative effects simply denies Mel’s claim without putting forward any evidence in support of that denial
E. assumes that changes that benefit the most able members of a group necessarily benefit all members of that group.
我选D, 大家来讨论
没人答了么?
i choose E
我觉得应该选A,理由如下：
MEL的结论是“The official salary for judges has always been too low to attract the best Candidates to the job.”，我觉得这里的关键在于too low to "attract" the best candidates.这里面强调的是“candidates”—those who have not been judges yet, 他们都还不是法官—they are potential members, 我认为这一点是题目的关键所在。
Pat’s response is "Since very few judges teach or give lectures, the ban will have little or no negative effect.",这个回应里的关键是“few judges", 也就是说这些人是“在职法官”—current members。可是，mel说的明明是candidates，pat 用 judges 的情况来回应，当然就是“attempts to assess how a certain change will affect potential members of a group by providing evidence about its effect on the current members”，也就是选项A的论述。
个人观点，班门弄斧，请牛人指正。
答案是（A）。完全同意陌的分析。Pat的问题就是“答非所问”
同样汗。。。我读完觉得D，E是错的，感觉不好。当然B，C是肯定错
但是并不觉得A对。。。如果是考试，这个题目我估计要错
请教d为什么不对
应该是A了
D的错误在于有些离谱，呵呵
.by pointing to the absence of negative effects simply denies Mel’s claim without putting forward any evidence in support of that denial
在否定M的意见的时候只是说没有他的建议没有什么负面影响，并没有给出支持的证据。
那个限制出去赚钱的条令怎么会没有什么负面的影响呢，不管影响面是大是小，它都会是负面的
a说的很清楚
因为原文too low to attract the best Candidates to the job
所以现在的这些人水平都比较低，没有能力出去赚钱，所有目前的这个条令对他们没有什么用，而以后要是真找了一些NN，那他们可都是要出去赚钱的，看到这个条令，谁还敢来呢，呵呵，我都跑掉咯
