Roland: The alarming fact is that 90 percent of the people in this country now report that they know someone who is unemployed.
Sharon: But a normal, moderate level of unemployment is 5 percent, with 1 out of 20 workers unemployed. So at any given time if a person knows approximately 50 workers, one or more will very likely be unemployed.
这题在百思下,我有点懂了,说下心得吧。请看OG解释:Sharon’s argument assumes that people are generally similar in how likely they are to have among their acquaintances people who are unemployed. 意思也就是说,S论断的内容是人们有相似的几率在熟人中遇见失业的。也就是说R所说的90%之类不值得恐慌。A项是说一般失业水准不会超标,取非后,会超标,对结论generally similar 没有影响,顶多是遇见的失业人多点或者少点。而正确选项B取非后说到了这和地域有关,也就是说不同地域的遇见失业者的几率不同,起到了削弱的作用,故B是正确选项。谢谢,鲜花,掌声
