[讨论]请牛牛讨论指教：怎么就算更直接？

一道提问：哪一个条件更加直接。来自大全 A-12

12.   Are you still reading the other newspaper in town? Did you know that the Daily Bugle is owned by an out-of-town business syndicate that couldn’t care less about the people of Gotham
                    City? Read the Daily Clarion, the only real voice of the people of Gotham
                    City!

Which of the following most directly refutes the argument raised in the advertisement above?

(A) Over half of the advertising revenues of the Daily Clarion come from firms whose headquarters are located outside of Gotham
                    City.

(B) The Daily Clarion usually devotes more of its pages to out-of-town news than does the Daily Bugle.

(C) Nearly 40 percent of the readers of the Daily Clarion reside outside the limits of Gotham
                    City.

(D) The editor-in-chief and all the other members of the editorial staff of the Daily Bugle have lived and worked in Gotham
                    City for ten years or more.

(E) The Daily Bugle has been published in Gotham
                    City for a longer time than has the Daily Clarion.

- 这道题我选择在B和D之间徘徊，答案给的是D。不知道大家的意见是什么？直接对于报纸内容的比较为什么就没有直接关于报纸编辑的比较更加直接？

- 而且就扣题目这个方面来说，题目讨论的是报纸的拥有者，也不是编辑阿。迷惑中。像是此类题目，是否有什么通用的判别标准？

我觉得没有什么通用判别标准，但可以参考SC的平行对称，名词对名词，动作性名词对应动作性名词，从句对应从句。

这里D反对的不是拥有者，而是从反映当地人民声音角度，而反映人民声音的应该是编辑，如果编辑是本地人或者本地女婿，那就没问题了。

B也是反对，但形式上不对称。

说半天好像都是废话，哈哈，不是NN，抛砖引玉

The argument's line of reasoning is: the ownership is assumed to make the paper care less about the local people of the city. However, The editor-in-chief and all the other members of the editorial staff, who are believed/assumed to decide what is to carry on paper, are local people for long time, and they are sure to know how to care about the local people. It provides the possibility but not 100% sure.

这个是绝对数和比例的关系，ＤＣ用更多的版面去登载那些外城的新闻，那假如它的总版面就比ＤＢ多呢？不能削弱！

照样可以去有更多的版面去刊登本地区的新闻啊
