67. A greater number of newspapers are sold in Town S than in Town T.
Therefore, the citizens of Town S are better informed about major world events than are the citizens of Town T.

Each of the following, if true, weakens the conclusion above EXCEPT:

(A) Town S has a larger population than Town T.
(B) Most citizens of Town T work in Town S and buy their newspapers there.
(C) The average citizen of Town S spends less time reading newspapers than does the average citizen of Town T.
(D) A weekly newspaper restricted to the coverage of local events is published in Town S.
(E) The average newsstand price of newspapers sold in Town S in lower than the average price of newspapers sold in Town T.


这题应该不难,答案是E.
但是我觉得A怪怪的,怎么我觉得严格说起来,
A顶多就是支持事实(第一句话),没有weaken第二句话(conclusion)的成分在……

S人口数>T人口数,故可支持S卖报量>T卖报量;
但是无法推出S的世界观 < > = T的世界观,
所以我觉得A无法weaken conclusion.

谢谢好心人的传道解惑

这道题目的确比较经典,曾经还被翻译成中文做为国内MBA联考的题目!!

我觉得主要是对conclusion的理解:
the citizens of town s are better informed about major world events than are the citizens of town t


这里的比较应该是平均数的比较!

如果这样理解的话,a就是一个绝对数和相对数的weaken了!

以下是引用light在2003-9-26 15:37:00的发言:

八戒的意思是town s的人口比t多,说明虽然s卖出的报纸比t多,但平均到每个市民来说未必比t的多。因此消弱了原论断认为s比t的更知道国际时事。(wolrd event不是世界观哦)

举这么一个极端的例子吧:

比如s有10000人口,于是乎,销售了1000份papers

而t有100人口,可是销售了99份papers!

明显,以上例子均满足原前提条件和选项a!
可是,绝对不可以推出结论:
the citizens of town s are better informed about major world events than are the citizens of town t.

Light小小声的说道:
但是,不能推出结论,不代表就有weaken……
他也可以是无关……

a town  is better informed about major world events

can be represented by the following fact:

let ratio a= the number of people who read paper/ the total number of people

a should be larger than other towns.


then we can weaken this conclusion by make the population larger

我的理解:A实际上告诉我们一种WEAKEN的方法,比较的对象应该是相对数字而非绝对数字。类似的比较在OG16里也出现了。
