Q38:

Journalist:  Well-known businessman Arnold Bergeron has long been popular in the state, and he has often talked about running for governor, but he has never run.  However, we have just learned that Bergeron has fulfilled the financial disclosure requirement for candidacy by submitting a detailed list of his current financial holdings to the election commission.  So, it is very likely that Bergeron will be a candidate for governor this year.

 

The answer to which of the following questions would be most useful in evaluating the journalist’s argument?

 

1. Has anybody else who has fulfilled the financial disclosure requirement for the upcoming election reported greater financial holdings than Bergeron?
2. Is submitting a list of holdings the only way to fulfill the election commission’s financial disclosure requirements?
3. Did the information recently obtained by the journalists come directly from the election commission?
4. Have Bergeron’s financial holdings increased in value in recent years?
5. Had Bergeron also fulfilled the financial disclosure requirements for candidacy before any previous gubernatorial elections?

没搜到这题。

标准答案给的是B。我选择E.

理由如下：AB以前说过好几次要竞选州长，这次他公开了资产情况。那要elaluate记者的话，就要看下他以前时候也向选举委员会公开了资产情况。如果公开了，那他这次也是说说而已。如果没公开，那说明他动真格了啊。

补充。

如果B改成

Is submitting a list of holdings the only requirement to fulfill the election commission’s requirements?

那还有点象答案了。
