: GWD-23-Q40

Political advocacy groups have begun to use information services to disseminate information that is then accessed by the public via personal computer.  Since many groups are thus able to bypass traditional news sources, whose reporting is selective, and to present their political views directly to the public, information services present a more balanced picture of the complexities of political issues than any traditional news source presents.

Which of the following is an assumption on which the argument above depends?

A. Information services are accessible to enough people to ensure that political advocacy groups can use these services to reach as large a percentage of the public as they could through traditional news sources.

B. People could get a thorough understanding of a particular political issueby sorting through information provided by several traditional news sources, each with differing editorial biases.

C. Information on political issues disseminated through information services does not come almost entirely from advocacy groups that share a single bias.

D. Traditional news sources seldom report the views of political advocacy groups accurately.

E. Most people who get information on political issues from newspapers and other traditional news sources can readily identify the editorial biases of those sources.


首先不大明白题。a more balanced picture of the complexities of political issues是什么意思啊？
答案选C 不明白~~NN赐教！

我是这样理解C的 不知道对不对啊
advocacy groups share 不同的bias， 所以散布的Information on political issues 就是complex的。
而traditional的渠道，由于有选择性，所以把这种complex的Information弄得不complex了。
所以说C是假设前提~~~
但是为什么D不对呢？traditional的渠道很少报道准确，不也是对的吗？

这个比喻~~我主要是觉得GMAC很少有两个答案都可以的时候~~~
谢谢哦~~

题目的结论翻译过来就是information services比传统的信息来源对事件的复杂性的描述用一个持平的观点（也就是不是带有偏见的观点）
关键点就在这个balanced picture of the complexities of political issues ，对C选秀取非，  information on political issues disseminated through information services WERE almost entirely from advocacy groups that share a single bias，那么就削弱结论
而D选项有加强结论的意味，C选项说传统的信息来源对政治鼓吹者的报道很少是准确的，不过也可以通过有关无关来排除，结论强调的是信息的balanced而不是准确不准确

D确实很干扰，我说说我的理解，文章的结论是信息服务比传统媒体对于一个issue更客观，balanced。先说C，C这个前提是必须得，C要取非结论就不对了，所以C是一个asumption。D选项，取非后说传统媒体准确的report政党支持者的观点，但是准确不等于全面。传统媒体可以准确地报道一部分支持者的观点，但对于一些issue传统媒体就不report。这样来看，也符合D的取非，但是依然能的到最终的结论，所以D不是一个必要的assumption。
