self346959851

13. No nation can long survive unless its people are united by a common tongue. For proof, we need only consider Canada, which is being torn asunder by
conflicts between French-speaking Quebec and the other provinces, which are dominated by English speakers.
Which of the following, if true, most effectively challenges the author’s conclusion?
(A) Conflicts over language have led to violent clashes between the Basque-speaking minority in Spain and the Spanish-speaking majority.
(B) Proposals to declare English the official language of the United States have met with resistance from members of Hispanic and other minority groups.
(C) Economic and political differences, along with linguistic ones, have contributed to the provincial conflictsin Canada.
(D) The public of India, in existence sine 1948, has a population that speaks hundreds of different, though related, languages.
答案(E) Switzerland has survived for nearly a thousand years as a home for speakers of three different languages.

我选C,削弱原文中language的原因，出了language还有econmic和political的原因
为什么C不对呢？？

Although C added Economic and political issues, it still supports the passage(conflict within a country caused by language issue). E is better.

Know the conclusion of the argument: No nation can long survive unless its people are united by a common tongue.

Logic chain: If nation survives, then its people speak the same language.

So people speaking the same language is a necessary conditions for its nation to survive.

Then if people speak different language, the nation cannot survive.

E simply points out the above is not true in one country. Thus, E weakens the argument.

Spot the question type: Weaken the conclusion

Conclusion: If nation survive ---> people are united by a common tongue.

Premise: If the conclusion is true, it must be true that Canada is the proof only need to be considered ---> separated between Quebec and other province speaking English.

很簡單馬, 必要條件為兩個帝國主義國家控制的加拿大省份不講同一個語言, 可是不講同一個語言不代表彼此不會學習對方的語言啊。有誰限定common tongue 不能夠後天學習？ 意思就是一個國家可以講一萬種語言, 可是有一個官方語言大家都會啊。

來, 看答案。

A. Support

B. Support

C. 有其他的原因出現不代表語言這個條件不充分 （標準的迷惑選項）

沒有一個男人可以把到白富美的馬子除非這個男的有車有錢有六塊肌

C, 這個選項等於是說

有車有錢有六塊肌, 以及常春藤名校學歷, 以及WWE摔角狂熱重量級冠軍腰帶頭銜都是能夠把到白富美馬子的因素。  （ 所以呢？  有車有錢有六塊肌還是你必須要把到白富美馬子的因素啊, 他只是告訴你如果有車有錢有六塊肌是必要條件, 如果要使之為充分, 我們還有其他的充分條件在啊 ）

D. 也是個迷惑選項, 來, 印度共和國成立至今, 有一個人口區間說了上百種” 相關的語言 “。既然是相關, 那就跟我們的common tongue 有關聯, 所以其實此選項為支持。

E. 其實就是只是把我們剛剛結論的必要條件給取非, 告訴你, 一個國家要生存, 語言的相似是非必要的。
