The media claim that the economy is entering a phase of growth and prosperity. They point to lower unemployment rates and increased productivity. This analysis is false, though. The number of people filing for bankruptcy has increased every month for the last six months, and bankruptcy lawyers report that they are busier than they have been in years.

Which of the following is an assumption on which the argument depends?

Unemployment rates are not useful indicators of growth and prosperity.

Economic growth cannot be measured in terms of productivity.

Legislation has not been recently passed to make legal bankruptcy easier to obtain.

There has not been an increase in the number of bankruptcy lawyers.

The media often misrepresent the current state of economic affairs.













这个题目正确答案选择的是C,不太明白为什么?题目的假设不可以是说明media是错的吗?我觉得ACE好像都是这个意思。

Premise : The number of people filing for bankruptcy has increased every month for the last six months, and bankruptcy lawyers report that they are busier than they have been in years.

Conclusion: This analysis is false, though.

media:我们的经济发展得很好
反对:media说的是错的。因为破产的更多了。

把C的not去掉,代表着更多种情况会引起破产,这样是对argu的削弱。放回not,就是排除了这个可能性。

至于E,更像是把原文的“false” restate了一下,而assumption必须要是原文没提到的信息。
