18.   Coach: Our team has often been criticized for our enthusiasm in response to both our successes and our opponents’ failures. But this behavior is hardly unprofessional, as our critics have claimed. On the contrary, if one looks at the professionals in this sport, one will find that they are even more effusive. Our critics should leave the team alone and let the players enjoy the game.

The coach’s argument is most vulnerable to the charge that it

(A) misleadingly equates enthusiasm with unethical play

(B) misinterprets the critics’ claim that the team is unprofessional

(C) too quickly generalizes from the sport at one level to the sport at a different level

(D) shifts the blame for the team’s behavior to professional playersB

(E) takes everyone on the team to have performed the actions of a few

想請問為什麼A不對???

Questions 23-24

Party spokesperson: The opposition party’s proposal to stimulate economic activity in the province by refunding $600 million in provincial taxes to taxpayers, who could be expected to spend the money, envisions an illusory benefit. Since the province’s budget is required to be in balance, either new taxes would be needed to make up the shortfall, in which case the purpose of the refund would be defeated, or else workers for the province would be dismissed. So either the province’s taxpayers or its workers, who are also residents of the province, will have the $600 million to spend, but there can be no resulting net increase in spending to stimulate the province’s economy.

24.   The conclusion about whether there would be a resulting net increase in spending would not follow if the

(A) taxpayers of the province would spend outside the province at least $300 million of any $600 million refunded to them

(B) taxpayers of the province would receive any refund in partial payments during the year rather than in a lump sum

(C) province could assess new taxes in a way that would avoid angering taxpayers

(D) province could instead of refunding the money, stimulate its economy by redirecting its spending to use the $600 million for construction projects creating jobs around the provinceE

(E) province could keep its workers and use them more effectively with a resulting savings of $600 million in its out-of-province expenditures

答案為什麼是E  D為什麼不對??

謝謝

18. The fallacy made by the coach is called a fallacy of 'red herring'. The first sentence of the stem is a 'red herring' which is to divert your attention from the criticism that the team plays unprofessionally. That is to say, the critic did not think that the team's enthusiasm was a problem.

Note: Red herring is a kind of fish with very strong smell. When one is chased by a pack of hounds, they will get lost if he places red herring behind himself. Now its meaning is often extended to denote sth that divert your attention. Little cub, you have been caught by the coach's red herring.

As to option A, a question can clarify your confusion - did the coach mention something ethical or unethical.

'creating jobs around the province' is not the same thing as net increase in spending.
