LSAT SET1-SECTION I-Q13
13. Top college graduates are having more difficulty demonstrating their superiority to prospective employers than did the top students of twenty years ago when an honors degree was distinction enough. Today's employers are less impressed with the honors degree. Twenty years ago no more than 10 percent of a given class graduated with honors. Today, however, because of grade inflation, the honors degree goes to more than 50 percent of a graduating class, Therefore, to restore confidence in the degrees they award, colleges must take steps to control grade inflation.
Which one of the following is an assumption that, if true, would support the conclusion in the passage?
(A) Today's students are not higher achievers than the students of twenty years ago.
(B) Awarding too many honors degrees causes colleges to inflate grades.
(C) Today's employers rely on honors ranking in making their hiring decisions.
(D) It is not easy for students with low grades to obtain jobs.
(E) Colleges must make employers aware of the criteria used to determine who receives an honors degree.
我的答案：B 正确答案：A
我对题目的理解：
论据：雇主现在不相信honor degree；20年前Top college的学生中只有10％能获得honor degree，而现在50％以上的学生都能获得honor degree ＝> 结论：学校必须控制honor degree的比例 ＝> 目的：防止grade inflation和雇主对honor degree的疑虑
我对问题的理解：
要求选出support上文conlusion的选项
请问：
1.这道题的题型：这应该是一道加强题吧? 加强题一般的解题思路应该是怎样的？
2.选项B中：“授予过多的honor degree会引起grade inflation”为什么不对？
3.选项A为什么对？它对结论的SUPPORT体现在哪里？
