Newspaper editorial: In an attempt to reduce the crime rate, the governor is getting tough on criminals and making prison conditions harsher. Part of this effort has been to deny inmates the access they formerly had to college-level courses. However, this action is clearly counter to the governor's ultimate goal, since after being released from prison, inmates who had taken such courses committed far fewer crimes overall than other inmates.
Which of the following is an assumption on which the argument depends?
一道是那个座位的那一道,答案选E,因为本来就是这么做的,所以老师的建议无效 还有一道就是猴子那个 就是说一蜥蜴L和另一个动物T都吃树猴,T是树生的但发现L在扑食方面更成功。于是科学家做了个试验:给这个树猴听L和T的声音记录并给他们看L和S的模型,发现猴们对T的声音还是模型发出的叫声差不多但对L的模型和声音发出的叫声有很大差别,问解释 (A)这个区域leopard比eagle多 (B)猴子可以通过爬树躲避leopard, 但是不能躲过eagle (D)猴子的声音可以alert leopard that it is noticed by the its pray , (E)说陆地捕食者威胁更大得用不同的叫声发警报,(但没记得题目说L是陆生的) 我把这几个答案给他发过去,他说按照这几个选项看应该最后一个是正确的
