Since it has become known that several of a bank's top executives have been buying shares in their own bank, the bank's depositors, who had been worried by rumors that the bank faced impending financial collapse, have been greatly relieved. They reason that since top executives evidently have faith in the bank's financial soundness, those worrisome rumors must be false. They might well be overoptimistic, however since corporate executives have sometimes bought shares in their own company in a calculated attempt to dispel negative rumors about the company's health.

In the argument given, the two boldfaced portions play which of the following roles?

正确答案: D

GWD-21-Q28~实在是不明白啊~哪位大侠可以帮忙解释下?

1.         GWD-21-Q28

Since it has become known that several of a bank’s top executives have been buying shares in their own bank, the bank’s depositors, who had been worried by rumors that the bank faced impending financial collapse, have been greatly relieved.They reason that since top executives evidently have faith in the bank’s financial soundness, those worrisome rumors must be false. They might well be overoptimistic, however since corporate executives have sometimes bought shares in their own company in a calculated attempt to dispel negative rumors about the company’s health.

 

In the argument given, the two boldfaced portions play which of the following roles?

 

A.     The first summarizes the evidence used in the reasoning called into question by the argument; the second states the counterevidence on which the argument relies.

B.     The first summarizes the evidence used in the reasoning called into question by the argument; the second is an intermediate conclusion supported by the evidence.

C.     The first is an intermediate conclusion that forms part of the reasoning called into question by the argument; the second is evidence that undermines the support for this intermediate conclusion.

D.     The first is an intermediate conclusion that forms part of the reasoning called into question by the argument; the second is the main conclusion of the argument. 

E.      The first is an intermediate conclusion that forms part of the reasoning called into question by the argument; the second states a further conclusion supported by this intermediate conclusion.
 
为什么是D?实在不明白They might well be overoptimistic是conclusion,明明不是一种judgement嘛?如果说后面since视作为evidence,那么前面那句intermediate conclusion不是也是since带着的嘛~

这个题目主要看第二个,他们可能过度乐观,肯定是作者最后的结论,后面however since corporate executives have sometimes bought shares in their own company in a calculated attempt to dispel negative rumors about the company’s health是他的推理过程,也就是原因。但是第一个黑体部分就不是那么明显了,这个应该是depositors进行推理的一个基础,怎么是中间结论呢,不是很清楚,但不影响作题

since 后面是个说理的过程  不一定都是evidence

楼主说 they might well be overoptimistic 是一种judgement  的话 其实所有的argument 的conclusion都是judgement  因为都是the author自己根据系列所谓的缘由推出的

个人经验觉得做bf题 把黑体字的内容属性(evidence fact  conclusion等)  和对整个argument的支持方向搞清楚就OK了

不知道楼主对这题选哪个答案?  

A   第二部分肯定不是evidence 

B  方向错了 这两部分是不同方向的 不相互支持CE同样排除

不对呀,我选的是B。很明显They reason that since top executives evidently have faith in the bank’s financial soundness, those worrisome rumors must be false里面,黑体字部分是个evidence,用来支持这些散户的推理嘛。

第二部分是结论,肯定的。但是,我还是觉得第一部分是个evidence,所以选了B。但是,这样一来,第二个部分就成了中间结论,也觉得有些不对。

请NN指教。

个人觉得第二部分是conclusion应该没错,因为后面的since 从句显然是支持They might well be overoptimistic,这一结论的.而且这一结论与前面公众普遍的预期相反.

第一部分看上去象是evidence,不过这一evidence并不是由若干事实组成的,"高管买自己公司的股票"是事实,但是"高管对自己的公司财务状况有信心"也是推断出来的,并没有具体事实表述.所以把第一部分看做中间conclusion 也未尝不可.

选D

第一部分是支持文章反对的结论的。因为第一部分不是直接的evidence,而是人们reason出来的,所以是intermediate conclusion

当然,第二个是文章的结论,所以是main conclusion
