再问LSAT-3-1-6,LSAT-3-1-7

Questions 6-7

Rotelle: You are too old to address effectively the difficult issues facing the country, such as nuclear power, poverty, and pollution.

Sims: I don't want to make age an issue in this campaign. so i will not comment on your youth and inexperience.

6. Sims does which one of the following?

(A) demonstrates that Rotelle's claim is incorrect

(B) avoids mentioning the issue of age

(C) proposes a way to decide which issues are important.

(D) shows that Rotelle's statement is self-contradictory

(E) fails to respond directly to Rotelle's claim

答案E,我选了C,因为从 "I don't want to make age an issue "表明S想从OTHER WAY去反驳R的观点.所以S proposes a way to ...,只是没有说出具体的方法而已.请指点

7. Rotelle is committed to which one of the following?

(A) Many old people cannot effectively address the difficult issues facing the country.

(B) Those at least as old as Sims are the only people who cannot effectively address

the difficult issues facing the country.

(C) Some young people can effectively address the difficult issues facing the country.

(D) If anyone can effectively address the difficult issues facing the country, that

person must be younger than Sims.

(E) Addressing the difficult issues facing the country requires an understanding of

young people's points of view.

答案D,

?1)我认为A和D都是R说的等价命题,为何A错?

2) Rotelle is committed to ...中的committed具体为何意?

谢谢!

且older的标准是什么呢

我的理解：Rotelle: You are too old to...,所以S就是标准。因为比S老的人有好多，所以Many old people cannot 。。

这里有两个疑问：

1，You are too old to address effectively the difficult issues  可否得出OLDER THAN YOU 都不能address effectively the difficult issues  ？

2，因为比S老的人有好多，这个假设是否超出题目所给的信息？

请NN帮忙，谢谢！
