1.        GWD-1-Q22:
                    Boldface

City Official:  At City Hospital, uninsured patients tend to have shorter stays and fewer procedures performed than do insured patients, even though insured patients, on average, have slightly less serious medical problems at the time of admission to the hospital than uninsured patients have.  Critics of the hospital have concluded that the uninsured patients are mot receiving proper medical care.  However, this conclusion is almost certainly false.  Careful investigation has recently shown two things:  insured patients have much longer stays in the hospital than necessary, and they tend to have more procedures performed than are medically necessary.

 

In the city official’s argument, the two boldface portions play which of the following roles?

 

1. The first states the conclusion of the city official’s argument; the second provides support for that conclusion.

2. The first is used to support the conclusion of the city official’s argument; the second states that conclusion.

3. The first was used to support the conclusion drawn by hospital critics; the second states the position that the city official’s argument opposes.

4. The first was used to support the conclusion drawn by hospital critics; the second provides support for the conclusion of the city official’s argument.

5. The first states the position that the city official’s argument opposes; the second states the conclusion of the city official’s argument.

这题到底选C还是E啊？看以前讨论怎么选E啊？明明是C啊

得拉

the uninsured patients are mot receiving proper medical care. 

这句好象有写错吧．什么mot？

这样让意思理解起来就有问题了。

先选e．

估计是not，原题打错了，为什么不是C？

得拉

应该是now吧．否则，文章意思会很奇怪。

第一个应该是认为，uninsured　病人得到了合适的治疗．

但官员认为，这样一个结论是错的。因为.....

两个都是conclusion．而officer是反对前面一个conclusion的，因为用了一个however．

 Critics of the hospital have concluded that the uninsured patients are mot receiving proper medical care.  However, this conclusion is almost certainly false. 

第一个是结论啊，第二句however清清楚楚的说了啊，this conlusion；前面就是conclusion。

第二个是说第一个结论是错的。又是个结论。

the uninsured patients are mot receiving proper medical care   对它取非

C: 有一点我觉得不准确,就是第一处BOLEFACE并没有"SUPPORT" ANYTHING.

所以,选E吧!

分析C选项，The first was not used to support the conclusion ,it's a conclusion itself.

"the second states the position that the city official’s argument opposes" 显然这并不是 city official’s argument 所反对的，而恰恰是它所主张和总结的，意思刚好说反了。

不知道这样分析对不对~
