逻辑假设题-陈向东逻辑推理P26-10

The best argument for the tenure system that protects professional employment in universities is that it allows veteran faculty to hire people smarter than they are and yet remain secure in the knowledge that unless they themselves are caught in an act of moral turpitude-a concept that in the present climate almost defies definition- the younger faculty cannot turn around and fire them. This is not true in industry.
Which of the following assumptions is most likely to have been made by the author of the argument above?
A. Industry should follow the example of universities and protect the jobs of managers by instituting a tenure sustem.
B. If no tenure system existed, veteran faculty would be reluctant to hire new faculty who might threaten the veteran faculty's own jobs.
C. The traditional argument that the tenure sustem protects scholars in universities from being dismissed for holding unconventional or unpopular beliefs is no longer persuasive.
D. If a stronger consensus concerning what constitutes moral turpitude existed, the tenure system in universities would be expendable.
E. Veteran faculty will usually hire and promote new faculty whose scholarship is more up-to-date than their own.

做逻辑的假设题都是要根据题目中的结论和条件来进行中间的推导，从而找到答案。请教大家这道题的结论和假设是啥？题干的最后一句话似乎没啥用啊，是不是？

这题答案是B，先谢谢大家了！

Premise: The tenure system allows old professors to hire smarter, young people without fear of losing thier own jobs since the younger professor cannot fire the older professor under the system.

Conclusion: The tenure system protects the professional employment in academia.

Bascally the premise says that without the tenure system, the old professor would not hire smarter younger people since the old might loose their jobs to the young.

B kind of repeats the above, but I am not so sure whether B is a legitimate assumption. GWD questions are not the authentic GMAT questions.

谢谢LS的童鞋，我突然觉得是这么个意思了。
假设题还有一种做法就是把它所给的选项取非，代入到原题中看结论成立不成立。我觉得这题选项本身就自己是取非了的，所以代入后结论不成立，所以就是正确选项了，我这样说对不？
还有啊，一般做假设题大家都是取非这么做的么？还有啥别的方法不？
谢谢啊！
