求教L25-2-12,24
求教L25-2-12,24 12. Music critic: Some people argue that, unlike certain works of Handel, which set to music familiar religious texts, the organ symphonies of Louis Vierne are not religious music. Quite the contrary. Sitting in Notre Dame cathedral in Paris and hearing his organ symphonies demonstrates that Vierne’s works are divinely inspired. The music critic’s reasoning is vulnerable to criticism on the ground that it (A) takes for granted that all religious music is inspiring (B) confuses two different meanings of the term “religious” (C) overlooks the possibility that some organ music is not divinely inspired (D) confuses two different meanings of the term “symphonies”(B) (E) takes for granted that all organ symphonies are religious music
Answer is B; I was confused what are the two different meanings of "religious"? 我是蒙对的,因为其它选项太离谱。 Religious在M-W dictionary 中的解释,可是还是看不出: 1 : relating to or manifesting faithful devotion to an acknowledged ultimate reality or deity *a religious person* *religious attitudes* 2 : of, relating to, or devoted to religious beliefs or observances 3 a : scrupulously and conscientiously faithful b : FERVENT, ZEALOUS –re£li£gious£ly adverb –re£li£gious£ness noun
24. Mr. Nance: Ms. Chan said that she retired from Quad Cities Corporation, and had received a watch and a wonderful party as thanks for her 40 years of loyal service. But I overheard a colleague of hers say that Ms. Chan will be gone for much of the next year on business trips and is now working harder than she ever did before; that does not sound like retirement to me. At least one of them is not telling the truth. M. Nance’s reasoning is flawed because it (A) is based in part on hearsay (B) criticizes Ms. Chan rather than the claims she made (C) draws a conclusion based on equivocal language (D) fails to consider that Ms. Chan’s colleague may have been deceived by her(C) (E) fails to infer that Ms. Chan must be a person of superior character, given her long loyal service
Answer is C; 我理解为:因为Ms.Chan的行为我感觉不象retirement->所以at least one of them is not telling truth, 和C有什么关系呢?
