17. Being articulate has been equated with having a large vocabulary. Actually, however, people with large vocabularies have no incentive for, and tend not to engage in, the kind of creative linguistic self-expression that is required when no available words seem adequate. Thus a large vocabulary is a hindrance to using language in a truly articulate way.
Which one of the following is an assumption made in the argument?
(A) When people are truly articulate, they have the capacity to express themselves in situations in which their vocabularies seem inadequate.
(B) People who are able to express themselves creatively in new situations have little incentive to acquire large vocabularies.
(C) The most articulate people are people who have large vocabularies but also are able to express themselves creatively when the situation demands it.
(D) In educating people’ to be more articulate, it would be futile to try to increase the size of their vocabularies.（A）
(E) In unfamiliar situations, even people with large Vocabularies often do not have specifically suitable words available.
原文的结论是这是一个典型的“能不能的问题”。原文的结论是大的词汇量是清晰表达的障碍，A就是当能够说清楚的时候，他们有能力表达....
举个例子这是gwd经常说的：joy在写字。这个结论的assumption可以是：joy有能力写字
however, people with large vocabularies have no incentive for, and tend not to engage in, the kind of creative linguistic self-expression that is required when no available words seem adequate. 这个句子到底什么意思?
----------People having large vocabulary, because they have large vocabulary, do not engage in the kind of creative linguistic self-expression, which is required when no available words seem adequate(for instance, some creative writers are regarded as masters of language. they employ language creatively. sometimes they even create new words by modifying available words)
--------conclusion: large vocabualry is a hindrance to use language in a truly articulate way.
It asssumes that a truly articulate way is like this: going beyond the limitatio of vocabulary to use creatvie linguistic self-expression. If people have large vocabulary, they face less such limitation, and therefore tend to be less creative.
请问一下~~
they have the capacity to express themselves和going beyond the limitation of vocabulary to use creative linguistic self-expression能等同吗？？？
是不是说既然都能用creative linguistic self-expression，那意味着 the capacity to express themselves肯定也是没有问题的？
Premise: Being articulate has been equated with having a large vocabulary. Actually, however, people with large vocabularies have no incentive for, and tend not to engage in, the kind of creative linguistic self-expression that is required when no available words seem adequate.
Conclusion: Thus a large vocabulary is a hindrance to using language in a truly articulate way.
Premise states that people with large vocabulary do not want creative linguistic self-expression. Then the conclusion jump to a large vocabulary is a hindrance to using language in a truly articulate way. You can feel the scope shift and something is missing between premise and conclusion. This conclusion need extra premise(assumption) to make it sound.
Which one of the following is an assumption made in the argument?
(A) When people are truly articulate, they have the capacity to express themselves in situations in which their vocabularies seem inadequate.
Negate this answer: When people are truly articulate, they DO NOT have the capacity to express themselves in situations in which their vocabularies seem inadequate.
The negation weaken the argument.
(B) People who are able to express themselves creatively in new situations have little incentive to acquire large vocabularies.
Who care’s about people’s “incentive”, this is out of scope.
(C) The most articulate people are people who have large vocabularies but also are able to express themselves creatively when the situation demands it.
Who cares about “most articulate people”, this is out of scope.
(D) In educating people’ to be more articulate, it would be futile to try to increase the size of their vocabularies.
Who cares about “educating people to be more articulate”, this is out of scope.
(E) In unfamiliar situations, even people with large Vocabularies often do not have specifically suitable words available.
Negate this answer: In unfamiliar situations, people with large Vocabularies often have specifically suitable words available.
This did not weakens the argument.
取非？
嗯嗯~懂了~呵呵~谢谢ssssss~~~
