Q41:

Magazine Publisher:  Our magazine does not have a liberal bias.  It is true that when a book review we had commissioned last year turned out to express distinctly conservative views, we did not publish it until we had also obtained a second review that took a strongly liberal position.  Clearly, however, our actions demonstrate not a bias in favor of liberal views but rather a commitment to a balanced presentation of diverse opinions.

 

Determining which of the following would be most useful in evaluating the cogency of the magazine publisher’s response?

 

1. Whether any other magazines in which the book was reviewed carried more than one review of the book
2. Whether the magazine publishes unsolicited book reviews as well as those that it has commissioned
3. Whether in the event that a first review commissioned by the magazine takes a clearly liberal position the magazine would make any efforts to obtain further reviews
4. Whether the book that was the subject of the two reviews was itself written from a clearly conservative or a clearly liberal point of view
5. Whether most of the readers of the magazine regularly read the book reviews that the magazine publishes

答案给的是C，这道题怎么也看不明白，初做的时候自己选的D，请高手帮忙好好解释一下！

非高手，班门弄斧

题目说，杂志编辑的观点认为，我们的杂志不存在倾向自由主义的问题。去年，当我们委任的书评出现强烈的保守派观点时，我们会先找一个强烈自由派的评论再出版，然而这并不能作为说明我们杂志倾向自由主义的证据，我们这么做是为了确保在传达两种不同思想流派上保持平衡。

问：那一项最有利于对编辑的说法做出评价

选项是，a-其他杂志是否需要大于一个的书评来对书籍做出评价  （无关）

        b-这家杂志是否对委任的和非委任的书评采取同样的出版标准  (无关)

        c-当杂志收到的第一个书评是强烈的自由派观点时，他们是否也会在出版前要求获取更多评论  （正确）

        d-被评价的书本身是保守派还是自由派   （无关）

        e-杂志的读者是否会阅读杂志刊登的书评  （无关）

D不对是因为整段话都在谈论review而不是book本身。杂志编辑先反对一个论点，这个论点的事实是他们需要两个reviews，编辑的还击方式并不是举出其他事实而是对这一事实做出其他解释，即他们是为了保持平衡。所以要想最好的评价他们的反驳，也需要从review上来找选项。C就是最合适的。
