这题为什么选B?

Press Secretary:  Our critics claim that the President’s recent highway project cancellations demonstrate a vindictive desire to punish legislative districts controlled by opposition parties.  They offer as evidence the fact that 90 percent of the projects

Q9:canceled were in such districts.  But all of the canceled projects had been identified as wasteful in a report written by respected nonpartisan auditors.  So the President’s choice was clearly motivated by sound budgetary policy, not partisan politics.

 

Which of the following is an assumption on which the press secretary’s argument depends?

 

1. Canceling highway projects was not the only way for the President to punish legislative districts controlled by opposition parties.
2. The scheduled highway projects identified as wasteful in the report were not mostly projects in districts controlled by the President’s party.
3. The number of projects canceled was a significant proportion of all the highway projects that were to be undertaken by the government in the near future.
4. The highway projects canceled in districts controlled by the President’s party were not generally more expensive than the projects canceled in districts controlled by opposition parties.
5. Reports by nonpartisan auditors are not generally regarded by the opposition parties as a source of objective assessments of government projects.

   Answer: B

这题我印象很深，今天考试刚好也遇到了，选B

因为写评估报告的人是中立的，那么问题只能出在总统身上，你按住NOT不看，就是说“大多数被评估为浪费的项目都在执政党控制的州”

大多数被评估为浪费的项目都在执政党控制的州 ＋ 大多数被取消的项目都在反对党所在的州－－－－>总统偏心

也就是取非削弱，这题应该用FF说的解题方法：按住NOT削弱

现在用取非削弱明白了，还要区分浪费和取消的项目是两回事。

这题思路很特别，要好好琢磨一下。

谢谢benny_style的指点！
