6. Several excellent candidates have been
proposed for the presidency of United Wire and
each candidate would bring to the job different
and experience If the others are compared with
Jones however it will be apparent that none of
them has her unique set of qualifications Jones
therefore is best qualified to be the new
president of United Wire.
The argument is vulnerable to criticism on the
ground that it
(A) uses flattery to win over those who hold an
opposing position
(B) refutes a distorted version of an opposing
position
(C) seeks to distinguish one member of a group on
the basis of something that applies to all
(D) supports universal claim on the basis of a
single example
(E) describes an individual in terms that
appropriately refer only to the group as a whole


答案C. 猜对了，实际看不懂为什么。请教高人指点。

none of them has her unique set of qualifications
也就是说每个人都有自己的特点，所以jones有独特之处也就不稀奇了
这样就是一个削弱啊

According to the passage, all candidates are excellent. The author fails to advance any really sound example to demonstrate how jones is unique. Therefore the argument is vulnerable since it  (C) seeks to distinguish one member of a group on
the basis of something that applies to all

有点明白了，还有一个小问题，on the basis of something that applies to all。是什么意思，我不是问怎么翻译，而是，这里到底指什么？

谢谢。

mariezhu

something that applies to all 我觉得这里指的是这几个候选人都适用优秀的这一特征。没理由挑出jones一个人来说她最unique

snow_mountain

谢谢。

mariezhu

不客气

我看题觉得 something applies to all，应该是指和JONES想同的方面。C就是说，想从大家都相同的方面找出jones的不同。而由于原题就说了，candidates是不同的经验和工作，所以是没有相同之处的。

因此他们是不可比的。提干中说“如果其他人和她是可比的，那么他们没有她质量好”。

继续请高人指点。我也看的迷糊
