Critics of certain pollution-control regulations have claimed that the money spent over the last decade in order to reduce emissions of carbon monoxide and of volatile organic compounds has been wasted. The evidence they offer in support of this claim might appear compelling: despite the money spent, annual emissions of these pollutants have been increasing steadily. This evidence is far from adequate, however, since over the last decade a substantial number of new industrial facilities that emit these pollutants have been built.

In the reasoning given, the two portions in boldface play which of the following roles?

正确答案: D

GWD27-Q20 - 怎样准确理解答案?

Critics of certain pollution-control regulations have claimed that the money spent over the last decade in order to reduce emissions of carbon monoxide and of volatile organic compounds has been wasted.  The evidence they offer in support of this claim might appear compelling:  despite the money spent, annual emissions of these pollutants have been increasing steadily.  This evidence is far from adequate, however, since over the last decade a substantial number of new industrial facilities that emit these pollutants have been built.

In the reasoning given, the two portions in boldface play which of the following roles?

A.      The first identifies a claim that the reasoning seeks to show is false; the second is evidence that has been cited by others in support of that claim.

B.       The first identifies a claim that the reasoning seeks to show is false; the second is a position for which the reasoning seeks to provide support.

C.      The first is a position that the reasoning contends is inadequately supported by the evidence; the second is a position for which the reasoning seeks to provide support.

D.      The first is a position that the reasoning contends is inadequately supported by the evidence; the second is evidence used to support the reasoning’s contention.

E.       The first is a position that the reasoning contends is inadequately supported by the evidence; the second is evidence that has been used to support that position.

答案是D。请问E中的position和D中的reasoning’s contention有什么区别?如何区别呢?谢谢了!

E。 The first is a position that the reasoning contends is inadequately supported by the evidence; the second is evidence that has been used to support that position.

选项最后的that position指的就是前面的那个position.

而前面的position是“推理认为证据不足的position”.显然第二句的evidence不是支持这个position的,而是支持推理的。

作者的观点是 This evidence is far from adequate, 而没有反驳原文的 claim(BF 1 ),因此从 D  E 中选

D 和 E 的差别是说 BF 2  support 的对象不同, D 说 support 作者, E 说support BF 1

明显选 D

另见前人讨论

这个题的关键在于理解reasoning contends和reasoning’s contention

整个题目的内容就是一个reasoning,这个reasoning contends了一个contention,即Critics的观点证据不足(This evidence is far from adequate),并且给出了原因(since over the last decade a substantial number of new industrial facilities that emit these pollutants have been built)。

我们看一下正确选项D
前半部分
The first is a position that the reasoning contends is inadequately supported by the evidence
分解意思应该为:
1、The first is a position
2、the reasoning contends that the first position is inadequately supported by the evidence
后半部分
the second is evidence used to support the reasoning’s contention.
reasoning’s contention指的是整个reasoning的观点:This evidence is far from adequate

如果reasoning contends和reasoning’s contention都明确了意思,就清楚多了。

其他选项错误的地方标示如下:
A.    The first identifies a claim that the reasoning seeks to show is false; the second is evidence that has been cited by others in support of that claim.
B.    The first identifies a claim that the reasoning seeks to show is false; the secondis a position for which the reasoning seeks to provide support.
C.    The first is a position that the reasoning contends is inadequately supported by the evidence; the second is a position for which the reasoning seeks to provide support.
D.    The first is a position that the reasoning contends is inadequately supported by the evidence; the second is evidence used to support the reasoning’s contention.
E.    The first is a position that the reasoning contends is inadequately supported by the evidence; the second is evidence that has been used to support that position.
