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?

先请教一题:

//司香尉,我们同一天考. 共同努力啊.

1.         GWD-25-Q2

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 paylevels 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.

我觉得B好象有点脱离了原文的推理过程.

argument 反驳resulting rise in wages will drive the inflation rate up的理由是 very small proportion 的人工资少于5.5刀.

我觉得最好的weaken就是说这个比例其实不小。

Many businesses hire trainees at or near the minimum wage but must  reward trained workers by keeping their paylevels above the pay level   of trainees.

我觉得c有这个意思,但是不太清楚. 我的理解是实习生和正式工有个放大关系.

也就是说,如果实习生虽然少, 但是因为正式工的工资永远比实习生大,那么实习生的工资增加意味这大规模增加公司,所以weaken.

你说的是对的,也是我有疑问的地方. 但是B太脱离原文推理过程了.

我觉得如果在考场真的遇到这个题目,我恐怕还选c. 当然最好别碰到.

还有一点,我觉得B中的Some  和C中的many 也让我觉得C更好。

总之,希望考试不要遇到这个鬼题目吧.
