慢半拍的靴子

之前发了两个又臭又长的贴，木有牛牛睬我。接受pygmysog批评，把这些题又拆开来 ，一个一个再接着问~~
这次大家可要回应我啊

TEST 11
   19.    It is widely assumed that a museum is helped financially when a generous patron donates a potential exhibit. In truth, however, donated objects require storage space, which is not free, and routine conservation, which is rather expensive. Therefore, such gifts exacerbate rather than lighten the demands made on a museum’s financial resources.
Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument above?
   (A) To keep patrons well disposed, a museum will find it advisable to put at least some donated objects on exhibit rather than merely in storage.
   (B) The people who are most likely to donate valuable objects to a museum are also the people who are most likely to make cash gifts to it.
   (C) A museum cannot save money by resorting to cheap storage under less than adequate conditions, because so doing would drive up the cost of conservation.
   (D) Patrons expect a museum to keep donated objects in its possession rather than to raise cash by selling them.（E）
   (E) Objects donated by a patron to a museum are often of such importance that the museum would be obliged to add them to its collection through purchase if necessary.

答案选E。我也选E，E是说博物馆不得不买，应该是给出他因吧。但是后来看了看，觉得A也有点道理。把这些捐赠品用于展览不是也能在一定程度上减轻博物馆的财政压力吗？

是不是因为要选出most weaken的选项，所以相比之下E优于A？如果这道题是EXCEPT题型，比如这样问：“all of the followings will weaken the argument EXCEPT___”那么会不会A也是属于weaken选项的？

你选对了，但是理解错了，E选项的意思是，捐赠给博物馆的东西都是很贵重的，贵重到什么程度呢，就算没有人捐赠，博物馆也有义务要买下来。 但是现在有人免费捐赠给他们，就省了一笔购买的钱了，因此是减轻了博物馆的财务压力，因此是削弱。

A不对是因为，虽然有一部分捐赠品能用在展览上，但你还是要储存，因此按照题目的逻辑，还是增加了博物馆的财政压力。

只有E明确的指出捐赠是缓解压力的

恩 我做的时候就是觉得a跟e相比，e选项更为直接，收益明确，a则只是一种可能获益，而且展览获益不见得能cover储存费用但是觉得a也不是没道理的，所以后来又纠结了一下，觉得如果这道题出成except的那种，a会不会也算是weaken的一种?话说，在做逻辑的时候，是不是没必要像我这般纠结?这两天在钻研大全，发现其实做错了的题是比较好处理的，因为对了答案之后就能发现自己做题的时候哪里的逻辑链断掉了，以后避免就好。但是像这种做的时候就拿捏不准，纠结来纠结去的题目，反而以后还会容易再次犯错。逻辑小弱的一点感慨，sigh。。。

你能理解E更好就可以了，不要去想什么出成except题的话，会怎么样，要真出那样，可能所有选项都变了，想太多了反而不好了

恩 有道理  非常感谢～
