A researcher studying drug addicts found that, on average, they tend to manipulate other people a great deal more than nonaddicts do. The researcher concluded that people who frequently manipulate other people are likely to become addicts.  

most weakens the conclusion.

1. After becoming addicted to drugs, drug addicts learn to manipulate other people as a way of obtaining drug.


2. When they are imprisoned, drug addicts often use their ability to manipulate other people to obtain better living conditions,


3. Some nonaddicts manipulate other people more than some addicts do.


4. People who are likely to become addicts exhibit unusual behavior patterns other than frequent manipulation of other people.


5. The addicts that the researcher studied were often unsuccessful in obtaining what they wanted when they manipulated other people.

Advertisement: for sinus pain, three out of four hospitals give her patients Novex. So when you want the most effective painkiller for sinus pain, Novex is the one to choose.

100、

One way to judge the performance of a company is to compare it with other companies. This technique, commonly called ‘benchmarking’, permits the manager of a company to discover better industrial practices and can provide a justification for the adoption of good practices.

Any of the following, if true, is a valid reason for benchmarking the performance of a company against companies with which it is not in competition rather than against competitors EXCEPT:

A.      Comparisons with competitors are most likely to focus on practices that the manager making the comparisons already employs.

B.      Getting ‘inside’ information about the unique practices of competitors is particularly difficult.

C.      Since companies that compete with each other are likely to have comparable levels of efficiency, only benchmarking against noncompetitors is likely to reveal practices that would aid in beating competitors.

D.     Managers are generally more receptive to new ideas that they find outside their own industry.

E.      Much of the success of the good companies is due to their adoption of practices that take advantage of the special circumstances of their produces or markets.

nonaddicts（nd）+addicts(ad)=总体

从结论可以得到：ad更可能由frequently manipulate other people的人转化过来

                但是不能否认nd中也有一些比ad还frequently manipulate other people的人，并

                且不会成为ad。

这与c不矛盾，故c不削弱结论，对么。

很有想法的解释，让我理解一下。

‘但是不能否认nd中也有一些比ad还frequently manipulate other people的人’，（这句从哪得来）并

且不会成为ad。（这句从哪得来）

这是ETS常考的一种类型题。有很多类似的题目。这种题目的正确答案就是把原题的因果关系倒置来削弱。

这道题的结论是people who frequently manipulate other people are likely to become addicts.  也就是说先有people who frequently manipulate other people ，再有become addicts。

而a说：After becoming addicted to drugs, drug addicts learn to manipulate other people as a way of obtaining drug。即先有addicted to drugs，再有manipulate other people。所以削弱原题。

c不在同一条逻辑链上。而且即使c成立，即有一些nonaddicts比一些addicts更会manipulate，但无法削弱原题的因果结论。

多谢楼上的。你怎么鉴别这类题！

jjll

其实如果原题的结论是某种因果关系，而题目又问你如何削弱，你就要注意了。

类似的题目我印象中还有：监狱犯人(inmate)和读书的关系，结婚和长寿的关系等。
