标题: 求助~GWD-TN-2的逻辑一道~
GWD3-Q17:
Brochure: Help conserve our city’s water supply.  By converting the landscaping in your yard to a water-conserving landscape, you can greatly reduce your outdoor water use.  A water-conserving landscape is natural and attractive, and it also saves you money.
Criticism:  For most people with yards, the savings from converting to a water-conserving landscape cannot justify the expense of new landscaping, since typically the conversion would save less than twenty dollars on a homeowner’s yearly water bills.
Which of the following, if true, provides the best basis for a rebuttal of the criticism?

A. Even homeowners whose yards do not have water-conserving landscapes can conserve water by installing water-saving devices in their homes.
B. A conventional landscape generally requires a much greater expenditure on fertilizer and herbicide than does a water-conserving landscape.
C. A significant proportion of the residents of the city live in buildings that do not have yards.
D. It costs no more to put in water-conserving landscaping than it does to put in conventional landscaping.
E. Some homeowners use more water to maintain their yards than they use for all other purposes combined.

答案说是选B,可我越看越觉得B不对,我觉得选E,大家来谈谈建议和自己的想法吧~帮我看看这道题到底是怎么回事~谢谢~~~

在排除选项的时候,首要的是抓住题目的主旨,也就是题目里实的东西,扔掉虚的
题目里在讨论的是新旧landscaping能否省钱
E有一个毛病是句子中出现了some,some导致可以提供可信依据的basis很小不足以convincing, 这类选项首先就可以扔掉
再看其他选项A\C\D中只有D的内容沾边,但可惜是无关比较
最后看B,B说旧的landscaping会导致用户消耗更多化肥,这就和省钱这个概念搭边了,因此使得Brochure的讲法更加persuasive,从而驳斥Criticism的讲法
希望对你有帮助

同意楼上的

Brochure说Water-Conserving landscape 省钱
Criticism说w-c landscape并没有省多少水费

选一个削弱Criticism的
ACE都和在讨论w-c省钱没关系的

B实际说了w-c landscape比常规的landscape省钱的地方
D说w-c landscape没有比常规的贵 不能削弱criticism 所以选B

如果把 rebuttal 去掉的话,D就可以做一个正确答案了,D与A比较更贴近原文的核心cost, rebuttal 是问题很关键的一个词,不然忽略了就容易误选D
