They offer as evidence the fact that 90 percent of the projects canceled were in such districts. But all of the canceled projects had been identified as wasteful in a report written by respected nonpartisan auditors. So the President’s choice was clearly motivated by sound budgetary policy, not partisan politics.
Which of the following is an assumption on which the press secretary’s argument depends?
A. Canceling highway projects was not the only way for the President to punish legislative districts controlled by opposition parties.
B. The scheduled highway projects identified as wasteful in the report were not mostly projects in districts controlled by the President’s party.
C. The number of projects canceled was a significant proportion of all the highway projects that were to be undertaken by the government in the near future.
D. The highway projects canceled in districts controlled by the President’s party were not generally more expensive than the projects canceled in districts controlled by opposition parties.
E. Reports by nonpartisan auditors are not generally regarded by the opposition parties as a source of objective assessments of government projects.

B report 里说 wasteful projects 不是全部都是另党的. 所以总统不是要惩罚他们作者: DAIXIAOQIAN 时间: 2012-8-26 00:55
那请问题目中说的Press secretary的argument是截止到opposition parties，即说明president是在惩罚opposition parties呢还说截止到正文最后，即说明president不是在惩罚opposition parties呢？作者: tomatoshirt 时间: 2012-8-26 01:13
Press Secretary: Our critics claim that the President’s recent highway project cancellations demonstrate a vindictive desire to punish legislative districts controlled by opposition parties. - 总统的对党认为总统把 highway project 给cancel 是要惩罚他们
They offer as evidence the fact that 90 percent of the projects canceled were in such districts. 这个党说90% 取消的Project 都在我们这的地区里
But all of the canceled projects had been identified as wasteful in a report written by respected nonpartisan auditors. So the President’s choice was clearly motivated by sound budgetary policy, not partisan politics. 总统的代言人说这个报告不是我们党做的， 所以没有歧视 而是为了省钱 。
问： 总统的代言人 assume 什么？
The scheduled highway projects identified as wasteful in the report were not mostly projects in districts controlled by the President’s party. - 浪费的project = district (both parties) + non district (both parties)
