GWD-10-Q29:

laceName w:st="on">SmithtownlaceName> laceType w:st="on">UniversitylaceType>’s fund-raisers succeeded in getting donations from 80 percent of the potential donors they contacted.  This success rate, exceptionally high for university fund-raisers, does not indicate that they were doing a good job.  On the contrary, since the people most likely to donate are those who have donated in the past, good fund-raisers constantly try less-likely prospects in an effort to expand the donor base.  The high success rate shows insufficient canvassing effort.

Which of the following, if true, provides more support for the argument?

1. laceName w:st="on">SmithtownlaceName> laceType w:st="on">UniversitylaceType>’s fund-raisers were successful in their contacts with potential donors who had never given before about as frequently as were fund-raisers for other universities in their contacts with such people.


2. This year the average size of the donations to laceName w:st="on">SmithtownlaceName> University from new donors when the university’s fund-raisers had contacted was larger than the average size of donations from donors who had given to the university before.


3. This year most of the donations that came to Smithtown University from people who had previously donated to it were made without the university’s fund-raisers having made any contact with the donors.


4. The majority of the donations that fund-raisers succeeded in getting for Smithtown University this year were from donors who had never given to the university before.


5. More than half of the money raised by Smithtown University’s fund-raisers came from donors who had never previously donated to the university.

原题是support, 答案为A.但是本月已经以weaken形式出现3次。一个JJ作者选E,另外2个不祥。大家看是C还是E?谢谢

怎么我的答案和你的不一样么？

原题support题，应该选C 说明捐钱的是那些以往就捐过的，而且没有被raisers联系的。

如果是weaken题， 应该选D，注意D选项的...who had never previously given to the university.和题中的...since the people most likely to donate are those who have donated in the past的对应。

另外D选项说明base扩张了, E选项只是说大部分钱来源于新的捐钱者，但不能说明人数扩张的程度。

原题争论很大，欧翻了很多讨论稿，似乎最后大家认为A较好。原因如下：

题中说，S大学的募捐人员从联系的捐款者中得到捐款的比例是80%，而C说大部分捐款都是来自已经捐过款的人，并且募捐人员没有跟这些人联系，这样说明募捐者联系的人大多是以前没有捐过款的人，在这些人中获得这么高比例的成功率说明他们的募捐非常有效，所以这样反而是削弱了结论。注意：文中说的募捐成功率，与捐款数额无关，即使大部分捐款都来自以前捐过款的人，但并不排除新捐款的人数也很多，但捐款额不大的情况。

A说：S大学的募捐人员通过联系从没有捐过款的人得到捐款的概率与其他大学的募捐者差不多，这样就说明S大学的募捐人员联系的人当中，已经捐过款的人的比例比较高，所以才造成总体的募捐成功率比较高，这样就加强了结论。A （忘记了是copy哪位前辈的话，见谅）

所以我认为如果是weaken的话，选C

我选e

beech gg的jj,北美的大牛牛哦

2. University donation - fund raiser didn't do a good job in... question also changed to ask weaken, so the answer become very clear: fund raiser got the money from people never donate before.
