以下是引用joywzy在2003-5-4 16:14:00的发言: 13. Top college graduates are having more difficulty demonstrating their superiority to prospective employers than did the top students of twenty years ago when an honors degree was distinction enough. Today’s employers are less impressed with the honors degree. Twenty years ago no more than 10 percent of a given class graduated with honors. Today, however, because of grade inflation, the honors degree goes to more than 50 percent of a graduating class, Therefore, to restore confidence in the degrees they award, colleges must take steps to control grade inflation.
Which one of the following is an assumption that, if true, would support the conclusion in the passage?
(A) Today’s students are not higher achievers than the students of twenty years ago.
(B) Awarding too many honors degrees causes colleges to inflate grades.
(C) Today’s employers rely on honors ranking in making their hiring decisions.
(D) It is not easy for students with low grades to obtain jobs.
(E) Colleges must make employers aware of the criteria used to determine who receives an honors degree.
答案:A,我觉得B,C也行啊?有什么区别是?A是怎么假设的呢?
not +weaken.

14. Either Perry’s faction or Tucker’s faction, but not both, will win control of the government. If Perry’s faction wins, the nation will suffer economically. If Tucker’s faction wins, the nation will suffer militarily.
Given the statements in the passage, which one of the following statements must be true?
(A) It is possible, but not certain, that the nation will neither suffer economically nor suffer militarily.
(B) If the nation suffers economically, it is certain that Perry’s faction has won control of the government.
(C) It is certain that the nation will suffer either economically or militarily, and also certain that it will not suffer both.
(D) If the nation suffers militarily, it is possible, but not certain, that Tucker’s faction has won control of the government.
(E) If the nation suffers both economically and militarily, it is certain that neither Perry’s faction nor Tucker’s has won control of the government.
答案:D,一点也不知该怎么做这种题?
不好意思,问题多多,谢谢了。
由原文,可得1。Perry’s faction wins——》the nation will suffer economically 2。Tucker’s faction wins——》the nation will suffer militarily 3。Either Perry’s faction or Tucker’s faction, but not both, will win control of the government可推出A错 B的逻辑关系为the nation will suffer economically——》Perry’s faction wins,无法从原文的出,所以错 同理。可推出其他。 D强调了it is possible, but not certain。所以正确。
