再问一次啊，大家帮忙啊

            

As a large corporation in small country, Hachnut wants its managers to have international experience, so each year it sponsors management education abroad for its management trainees. Hachnut has found, however, that the attrition rate of graduates from this program is very high, with many of them leaving Hachnut to join competing firms soon after completing the program. Hachnut does use performance during the program as criterion in deciding among candidates for management positions, but both this function and the goal of providing international experience could be achieved in other ways. Therefore, if the attrition problem cannot be successfully addressed, Hachnut should discontinue the sponsorship program.

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

这里的BUT转折得很突兀，我不明白这句话应该怎么样翻译？请大家帮忙

请问选项在哪里啊?

这题没选项的，所以只能大家讨论下他的意思

Why the answer is E, not D?????

Which of the following most logically completes the argument?
   

A certain cultivated herb is one of a group of closely related plants that thrive in soil with high concentrations of metals that are toxic to most other plants.  Agronomists studying the herb have discovered that it produces large amounts of histidine, an amino acid that, in test-tube solutions, renders these metals chemically inert.  Possibly, therefore, the herb’s high histidine production is what allows it to grow in metal-rich soils, a hypothesis that would gain support if ______.
   

A.      histidine is found in all parts of the plant—roots, stem, leaves, and flowers
   
   

B.
  the herb’s high level of histidine production is found to be associated with an unusually low level of production of other amino acids
   
   

C.       others of the closely related group of plants are also found to produce histidine in large quantities
   
   

D.       cultivation of the herb in soil with high concentrations of the metals will, over an extended period, make the soil suitable for plants to which the metals are toxic
   

E.        the concentration of histidine in the growing herb declines as the plant approaches maturity

E

先说E，原文说：high histidine production -> what allows it to grow in metal-rich soils;

      选项： the concentration of histidine in the growing herb declines （非因）as the plant approaches maturity
                    （植物死了，非果）

D选项只说原因，没说结果，所以没有E好

以下是引用even2007在2007-11-24 0:07:00的发言：

找到一個NN的分析。僅作參考，雖然我覺得D還是很有道理的。

题型：填空题（第一句不翻了）

原题：一种特殊的草，属于某个特殊的植物科。这一科的植物可以在金属含量很高的土壤里thrive（茁壮成长），而这种含金属量高的土壤，对于其它植物是有毒的。农学家在研究这种草时发现，它能够产生出大量的histidine。histidine是一种氨基酸，在试管里试验时，它可以让金属的化学特性变得不活跃。

（结论：）因此有可能，这种草高的histidine产量，是让它能够在金属含量高的土壤里grow（生长）的原因。

问：下面哪句话能够支持结论的hypothesis？

请再看一遍问题，答案是要支持结论的hypothesis，而不是上面常常的推理过程，因此任何对于推理过程的支持，都是无关选项。这题的hypothesis是什么？就是“histidine（而不是其它什么东西）导致了这种草能在高金属含量的土壤里grow”。

再来看选项，这道题的恶劣之处就暴露无疑了：

A。无关。histidine在哪里找到（根、茎、叶……），跟它是否让这种草在高金属土壤里grow无关

B。无关。histidine作为一种氨基酸，导致了其它氨基酸产量少，跟histidine是否导致它能在高金属土壤里grow无关（可能这种草根本就不靠氨基酸对抗金属，靠自己命硬呢？不对）

C。“其它同科的草也被发现大量产生histidine“

我第一次选的答案，但它还是无关。目标草有histidine，其它草也有histidine，它们都能在高金属土壤里grow，所以histidine就是它们能够grow的原因吗？不对。我来举个例子：小明上OD，小红也上OD，小明和小红GMAT都考了800分，所以OD导致小明和小红考了800分。这个推理对吗？不对。可能小明天生是个天才，只要考试就考满分；小红上了一个什么辅导班，结果考题跟辅导班偷出来的考题一模一样。而两人每天上OD其实只看IBT版的：）我只是要说明，两个人同时有同一个特性，又达到了同一个目标，并不能证明这个特性导致了这个目标。

D。“将这种草种在高金属含量的土壤里，一段时间后，那些原来对金属要中毒的植物，也可以在这种土壤中生存了。”

这个非常像答案，因为从本身来说它是没有问题的。它说明这种草能够解掉土壤里的金属，进而在高金属含量的土壤里grow。但请再回过头去，看看题目要你支持什么？是原文的结论：histidine导致这种草在高金属含量的土壤里grow，而不是“这种草能够在高金属含量的土壤里grow。所以这是一个干扰选项，它仍旧是无关，虽然本身是对的。

E。”当这种草approaches to maturity的时候，它的histidine浓度将下降。“

这个选项第一眼看上去荒谬至极，但它是正确的。首先，一个植物maturity是什么意思呢？就是它的grow停止了。所以E选项这句话的意思实际就是：随着这种草grow活动的下降，它的histidine浓度也在下降。而原文的结论是：有histidine，所以这种草能够在高金属土壤里grow。很显然，E项是原文结论的一个逆否命题，那么它就直接支持了原文需要支持的结论。

所以本题选E。这个答案的令人难以置信之处，在于它居然让原文结论以外的阐述全部变成了废话。但是，根据问题所要求的答案，E就是最好的答案。

I don't agree with this argument.

 "grow" means 生存，而不是成长。理解有误,   原文意为：  the herb can survive in 有毒的环境里, 而不是成长而已。If E is correct, then the 成年的herb will die soon because it doesn't have enough histidine. But this is not what the original argument means. Hence, E is wrong.

C is the correct answer.

先说E，原文说：high histidine production -> what allows it to grow in metal-rich soils;

      选项： the concentration of histidine in the growing herb declines （非因）as the plant approaches maturity
                    （植物死了，非果）

什么地方说植物死了啊？maturity是指植物死了的意思？

同意楼上的观点

E肯定對..C肯定不對

histidine組氨酸n : 

an    essential    amino    acid    found    in    proteins    that    is    important   for
   the   growth   and   repair   of   tissue
   

Agronomists studying the herb have discovered that it produces large amounts of histidine, an amino acid that, in test-tube solutions, renders these metals chemically inert.

這句是事實可見得有大量histidine跟減緩metal chemical的作用並存是肯定的

事實上他是真的有用的， 基本ETS出題的邏輯而言這題一定要找合理的推斷而不是引述其他的證據...

C不對在於其他同科的草也有histidine..那就原文所論相反,如果其他草也有那怎樣只有他可以活下去..

D就更不對了....histidine....不會解毒~~文意沒錯~但是跟事實無關(舉出其他證據非本題所需).....如果可以那這種草就是太神奇了..

E是逆命題,表示當這個植物已經長大就不需要histidine幫助抵抗metal chemical的作用,合理的推斷也是本題所需要的答案

補充一點,histidine是組成蛋白質的一種成份,是好物,大豆含histidine量很高.是醫學證明過的..不過沒有D講的這麼神奇就是了..又不是武俠小說
