一道OG中迷糊的题og-8

welkin

这一题还是没有弄懂，选答案我会去选D，本来挺清楚的，但是如果对E取非就糊涂了的，取非后意思为“做说客可以不止3年” ，那是不是对结论that such a prohibition would be unfortunate because it would prevent high-level government officials from earning a livelihood for three years.进行了削弱呢？因为E取非后直接就否定了because后面的内容啊。 看来我对削弱的理解还是有很大的漏洞， 请达人指导啊。。。

原文说的是在从政府离职后三年内无法挣钱维持生活（三年），注意是focusing离职后立即产生的效果，重点不是能做多少年的说客。而E只是关注能做多少年说客，忽略了离职后的连续三年。

是不是assum题目，都是要跟题目中的细节有关系的，不能出现无关选项？

政府官员的谋生之道会被不幸阻止   除非政府官员唯一的生财之道就是做这种说客

还有西点的解释非常清楚。

这个题目我先也是想了很久，后来觉得如果这个官员的结论要成立的话，必要条件就是做说客是他们谋生的唯一途径，这样才能证明他说的话。

而答案E和其他答案一样都是无关选项

我应用lawyer的解题方法对OG-8的解题思路,有不对的地方请指正:

8. To prevent some conflicts of interest, Congress could prohibit high-level government officials from accepting positions as lobbyists for three years after such officials leave government service. One such official concluded, however, that such a prohibition would be unfortunate because it would prevent high-level government officials from earning a livelihood for three years.

The official’s conclusion logically depends on which of the following assumptions?

A. Laws should not restrict the behavior of former government officials.

B. Lobbyists are typically people who have previously been high-level government officials.

C. Low-level government officials do not often become lobbyists when they leave government service.

D. High-level government officials who leave government service are capable of earning a livelihood only as lobbyists. D

E. High-level government officials who leave government service are currently permitted to act as lobbyists for only three years.

解题思路：1. 确定为assumption类型(由问题中assumption判断出)；

          2．找出结论(由题干中conclude判断出): One such official concluded, however, that such a prohibition would be unfortunate because it would prevent high-level government officials from earning a livelihood for three years. 关键词:livelihood 即B部分

          3. 找出前提(结论之前为前提): To prevent some conflicts of interest, Congress could prohibit high-level government officials from accepting positions as lobbyists for three years after such officials leave government service. 关键词:lobbyist 即A部分

          4. 找出support选项(架桥) 准确表达两个关键词的关系

E选项不是一个assumption来的，而是一个statements of facts。

题目倒是看懂了，选项也很明显，只是被OG的解释绕晕了，欢迎高人把我绕出来：

为了阻止一些利益冲突，议会可以禁止高官在离职三年内接受说客的工作。然而，一个官员得出结论，这种禁令不合宜，因为这会使高官三年无法赚钱谋生。

这个官员的结论依据哪个假设？－－ D. 离职高官只能靠做说客赚钱谋生。

OG的排除四个错误选项用的是一种方法，但我绕不明白它的解释，例如

A. Laws should not restrict the behavior of former government officials.

解释是：The official's argument does not depend on the assumption in A, since the argument would not be invalidated if some restrictions on the behavior of government officals were desirable.

怎么解释呢，怎么和原文联系起来呢。

A.法律不应该禁止前政府官员的行为

如果一些政府官员行为的禁令是合宜的，观点就不会无效。
