标题: 大家进来讨论一道题目 我觉得好像题有点问题 gwd25-q2 已经搜过前贴 但是仍有不明
In two months, the legal minimum wage in the country of Kirlandia will increase from five Kirlandic dollars(KD5.00) Per hour to KD5.50 per hour. Opponents of this increase have argued that the resulting rise in wages will drive the inflation rate up. In fact its impact on wages will probably be negligible, since only a very small proportion of all Kirfandic workers are currently receiving less than KD5.50 per hour.
Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument?
A.Most people in Kirlandia who are currently earning the minimum wage have been employed at their current jobs for less than a year.
B.Some firms in Kirlandia have paid workers considerably less than KD5.00 per hour, in violation of Kirlandic employment regulations.
C.Many businesses hire trainees at or near the minimum wage but must reward trained workers by keeping their pay levels above the pay level of trainees.
D.The greatest growth in Kirlandia’s economy in recent years has been in those sectors where workers earn wages that tend to be much higher than the minimum wage.
E.The current minimum wage is insufficient for a worker holding only one job to earn enough to support a family, even when working full time at that job.

这题答案是c
但是我认为c一样有不足 如果以前trainee拿的工资是5.0 而trained worker要高一个档次 比如5.6 那么 即使把最低工资提高到5.5 那么 其实保持trained worker的5.6不变 那么仍然是满足他们的工资大于trainee啊 这样不就不会weaken了么?

我觉得是B呀。。。LZ你选啥?
作者: everine    时间: 2010-8-7 23:28
我认为是C
其余没有一个对的啊
而且C的意思就是这个最低工资不仅对那些拿最低工资的人的工资有影响 而且也影响了其他不拿最低工资的
正好就削弱了its impact on wages will probably be negligible

而且我觉得LZ有点过于细抠了吧=.=
keeping their pay levels above the pay level of trainees我感觉就是水涨船高那种的差距呃

恩,同意楼上。美国薪水差距不会就差那么一点点的,会有一个比较大的差距来表示不同。所以最低工资高了,差距一样,别的水平的工资也相应高了。

题中说的是 涨最低工资会增加inflation 而inflation是可以忽略的

所以题的主要结论就是涨最低工资是可行的

而问的是weaken的。。。

C就是说 涨了最低工资 公司的开销更大 因为要给trainees更多的薪水 还要给 trained workers 比trainees更多的薪水。所以对于公司来说 涨最低工资是有弊无利的。

我觉得题目的意思是
A说不能涨,涨了会导致通涨
B说能涨,不会导致通涨
weaken B,就是相当于support A,既涨了会导致通涨。

B 肯定是错的 C是对的

首先他的some就模糊不清

再者 原来的regulation他能violate  那么新的regulation 他照样能够violate 不造成影响

所以不能weaken
