以下是引用HRperson在2004-6-26 14:24:00的发言:6.The quality of unrefined olive oil is not actually defined in terms of acidity, yet extensive tests have shown that the less free oleic acid an unrefined olive oil contains per liter, the higher its quality. The proportion of free oleic acid that an olive oil contains is an accurate measure of the oil's acidity.
If the statements above are all true, which of the following conclusions is best supported by them?
看了大家的讨论我却觉着应该选b,呵呵,不要砸我
明确:此题要求承认 the statements above are all true, which of the following conclusions is best supported by them? 请注意是“by them”,要由论述内容间的联系和逻辑推理得出,而不是仅针对某一点得出结论,或者借助背景知识得出。
那题目中说了什么呢?
首先,提出The quality of unrefined olive oil is not actually defined in terms of acidity,
接着,用“yet”提出了(就像阅读中,提出不同观点的标志词):extensive tests have shown that the less free oleic acid an unrefined olive oil contains per liter, the higher its quality (我们可与看到这里主要是阐述“free oleic acid”和“its quality”的关系,那我们就会想了,这个“free oleic acid ”和开头提出的“acidity”有没有关系呢?又是怎样的关系呢,明确了它们的关系,才知道作者的不同观点是什么)
于是,我们就看到了“The proportion of free oleic acid that an olive oil contains is an accurate measure of the oil's acidity.”(这里说明油中proportion of free oleic acid 是油的“acidity”的“an accurate measure”,明确了不同观点中提出的“ free oleic acid ”和开头观点中的对象“acidity”的关系)
按照这个逻辑,我们可以看出题目中三个对象关系即: “free oleic acid ”充当了桥梁的作用,把题目中的另外两个对象“quality of an unrefined olive oil”和“ its acidity”联系起来了。
则我们可得出 这个不同观点(确切的说应该是更精确的观点)的结论,即:
The quality of an unrefined olive oil can be determined only by accurately measuring its acidity
黑体部分可以看出,以上推理得出的结论是比文章开头提出观点的更严密的观点。
看看其他选项:
A.When an olive oil is refined, the concentration of oleic acid in the oil is reduced.
无法单纯由题目中陈述的内容推出来的,而且“refined”题目中也未涉及,另外,该选项也未涉及有关酸和质量的推论,所以排除;
C. If an unrefined olive oil is intermediate in acidity between two other unrefined olive oils, it will also be intermediate between them in quality.
只是针对不同观点的内容进行了举例,没有利用 The proportion of free oleic acid that an olive oil contains is an accurate measure of the oil's acidity.这点信息,所以非全面结论。
D.Free oleic acid is the only acid that unrefined olive oil contains.
只是针对 The proportion of free oleic acid that an olive oil contains is an accurate measure of the oil's acidity.这点信息得出的推论,非全面结论。
E. People who judge the quality of unrefined olive oils actually judge those oils by their acidity, which the judges can taste.
该选项增加了跟题目推论无关的对象“people...acidity, which the judges can taste”所以最容易排除。
