16.   A violin constructed to have improved sound would sound different from the best-sounding existing violins.To professional violinists, a violin that sounds different from the best-sounding existing violins sounds less like a violin and therefore worse than the best-sounding existing violins.

Professional violinists are the only accepted judges of the sound quality of violins.

Would be the best supported by those statements?

(A) Only amateur violinists should be asked to judge the sound quality of newly constructed violins.

(B) Professional violinists supervise the construction of violins.

(C) The best-sounding existing violins have been in existence fro several centuries.

(D) It is currently impossible to construct a violin that the only accepted judges will evaluate as having improved sound.

(E) It is possible to construct a violin that sounds better than the best-sounding existing violins to everyone but professional violinists.

答案是D,这题我是猜对的,看不太懂题目再说什么…

17.    The fact that several of the largest senior citizens’ organizations are constituted almost exclusively of middle-class elderly people has led critics to question the seriousness of those organizations’ commitment to speaking out on behalf of the needs of economically disadvantaged elderly people.

Which of the following generalizations, if true, would help to substantiate the criticism implicit in the statement above?

(D) Middle-class elderly people are more likely to join organizations than are economically disadvantaged elderly people.

(E) People usually join organizations whose purpose is to further the economic, political, or social interests of their members.

答案是E,為什麼要選E不能選D

第16题题干问Would be the best supported by those statements是归纳题，归纳题可以用无关词排除法，A中amateur violinists 文中没有提到，排除，B中supervise没有提到，C中several centuries错误的时间状语，E中everyone 文中没有提到，排除。请高手指点。

17题中削弱题形，d答案中用了比较，文中根本就没有比较的概念。d错。e中的答案刚好削弱了原文的结论。同因异果。

第16题的d和e我犹豫了很久,可以在详细说明一下吗,谢谢

16题归纳题的关键是不用关心文章的推倒结构，只抓文章的信息。e中说construct a violin that sounds better than the best-sounding existing violins 对于除了专业小提琴手外的所有人来说是可能的。题目中就没给过这样的信息。文中只提到Professional violinists are the only accepted judges of the sound quality of violins.所以e错。

我说两句.16题是归纳题目,说小提琴改进就不如原装,职业提琴师只要听到不是原装就否,他还是唯一的评委,因此D的答案说让唯一的评委辨别出改进是不可能的就对了,因为职业提琴师脑子里只有原装没有改进.

17题,作者怀疑中产阶级是否能代表穷人,E答案正好证实了作者的怀疑,因为加入一个组织就是只为自己说话,言外之意就是不为穷人说话了,当然就证实作者的担忧了。

to leeon,17题不是问的削弱，问的是哪个加强了质疑...

这题不选D是因为D说的是作为已知前提列出在题干中的，organizations are constituted almost exclusively of middle-class elderly people ...而E是对人们的质疑提出解释，则是加强...

支持happyfish的说法！原文中评论家们怀疑这些organization已经不再替economically disadvantaged elderly people 说话了可是只说明现在这些organization的成员都是mid-class elderly。而E正好进一步加强了这个质疑，人们加入某个organization是因为这个organization能further the economic, political, or social interests of their members。那就是说这种senior citizen organization 现在都在替mid-class elderly说话了，自然就不再维护disadvantaged elderly people了！
