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 doe 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?

 

A The first describes a practice that the argument seeks to justify; the second states a judgment that is used in support of a justification for that practice.

B The first describes a practice that the argument seeks to explain; the second presents part of the argument’s explanation of that practice.

C The first introduces a practice that the argument seeks to evaluate; the second provides grounds for holding that the practice cannot achieve its objective.

D The first introduces a policy that the argument seeks to evaluate; the second provides grounds for holding that the policy is not needed.

E The first introduces a consideration supporting a policy that the argument seeks to evaluate; the second provides evidence for concluding that the policy should be abandoned.

没有看到答案，请大家看看选什么？我选C。

仍旧问多一次我的问题（之前的帖子没有人回答）能否翻译一下 Hachnut doe 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. 这句。感觉这个BUT转折得让我晕。

快考了，请大家不吝赐教！！！！！

谢谢啊，能解释一下吗？

选D  我排除的 首先第一个bold 说的不是一个实践 而是政策 排除 a  b  c 根据第个 bold 后面therefore “should discontinue the sponsorship program” 既然可以不用继续那就是说不是必须了 还有“ could be achieved in other ways” 所以选D  个人见解         <-------- 大家帮鉴定一下

1.practice 还是policy不是重点，关键是理解这句话both this function and the goal of providing international experience could be achieved in other ways.

Hachnut doe 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

翻译：H公司将受训人员在培训中的表现作为决定候选人晋升到管理层的标准，但是实际上这个目的（使受训人员有国际工作经验）是可以通过其它方式达到的。

"也就是说，段子的作者不认可H公司为达到这个目的而采用的送出国外受训的方式。LZ是不是认为but转折就是反对前文呢？反对的理解没错，但不是全盘否定。”

C选项：practice cannot achieve its objective. 与段子矛盾，不是“达不到目的”，而是“可以有其它手段”。所以错了

D选项：that the policy is not needed. 说出了段子的本意：“这个方式是不必要的”。

不知道有没有解释好！参考吧！

我觉得这个policy和practise的区别不是很重要，关键是第二句话，C说第二个BF是holding that the practice cannot achieve its objective的论据，这个地方有问题，因为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这个才是C要的论据。D说第二个BF是对结论的支持，这个没问题。

偶逻辑一般，仅供参考吧：）
