[求助]OG11-67的解释

zhaokiki

67. A greater number of newspapers are sold in Town S than in Town T. Therefore, the citizens of Town S are better informed about major world events than are the citizens of Town T.

Each of the following, if true, weakens the conclusion above EXCEPT:

(A)          Town S has a larger population than Town T.

(B)         Most citizens of Town T work in Town S and buy their newspapers there.

(C)         The average citizen of Town S spends less time reading newspapers than does the average citizen of Town T.

(D)         A weekly newspaper restricted to the coverage of local events is published in Town S.

(E)         The average newsstand price of newspapers sold in Town S is lower than the average price of newspapers sold in Town T.

C、E分别应该怎么判断呢？原文的解释没看明白，快绕死了，谢谢帮助~~~

原题大意是：S城的报纸销售量大于T城，所以S城居民比T城居民更了解天下大事。

C说的是：S城居民花在读报上的平均时间比T城居民少；——基本上out of scope，稍微Weaken

E说的是：S城报摊卖报的平均价格比T城的便宜；——明显Weaken

所以权衡下来，还是倾向于选C。

探讨！

apostlep43

S town sells more newspaper -> S citizen more informed about worldly event

E if E is true, one can still derive the conclusion that S citizen is more informed.

Should choose E.

这种题目可以理解成：

提干：原因A（报纸卖的较多）-->结果B（居民更了解世界大事）

C选项相当于增加另外一个原因（事实：读报纸时间较少）来削弱；

E相当于牵强的可以推出A，这样还是继续推出B，无法削弱；

其他几个比较明显。

这类题型削弱类型基本有两种：

1：说明A只是表面现象，未必能推出B（A、B选项）；

2：直接增加他因来削弱（C选项、D选项——因为多发行了一种本地报纸 推出 未必了解“世界大事”（major world event））

而通常迷惑选项是E这样的，E选项->原因A，不能削弱推出B的过程。

E价格便宜能推出卖的多，但不能推出是哪个城市的居民买的多，正如B所说的情况。
