重问两个假设题

LSAT-7-IV-6,8
The government provides insurance for individuals? band deposits, but requires the banks to pay the premiums for the insurance. Since it is depositors who primarily benefit from the security this insurance provides, the government should take steps to ensure that depositors who want this security bear the cost of it and thus should make depositors pay the premiums for insuring their own accounts.

6. Which of the following is assumed by the argument?

(A) Banks are not insured by the government against default on the loans the banks make.

(B) Private insurance companies do not have the resources to provide banks or individual with deposit insurance.

(C) Banks do not always cover the cost of the deposit-insurance premiums by paying depositors lower interest rates on insured deposits than the banks would on uninsured deposits.

(D) The government limits the insurance protection it provides by insuring accounts up to a certain legally defined amount only.

(E) The government does not allow banks to offer some kinds of accounts in which deposits are not insured.

答案：C，不明白C为什么是假设，它出现了原文没有的比较点，我一下子就排除了。
mindfree,

这是你原先的解释:

关于6T, C选项的意思是: 银行并没有通过降低付给存款人利息的方式来cover premium costs. 对其取非, 既银行always通过降低利率来cover costs -->实际上depositors一直是在cover premium costs, 因为他们得到的利息相比没有insurance的情况要低. Do not cover the cost不意味亏损.
我认为你曾经选C是对的. E是无关选项, "但如果对e取反，即“银行允许未保险的储蓄存在”，那么政府就不该让银行付保险费，反对了原文的结论。" 原文就是要政府设法不要让银行付保险费, 怎么是反对了原文的结论?

When you make judgment on scope, the first think you should make sure is relevance. If the information is out of scope and is irrelevant, it cannot be right. But here D is relevant as uninsured deposits are just the opposite of insured deposits. If D is true, when the loan is  uninsured, the bank will pay higher interest than it does on insured deposits, it means that bank normally forfeits part of the interest on insured deposits to compensate the premium.

So what you should do is understand the passage before you decide what is out of scope and what is not.

我的疑问.

Banks do not always cover the cost of the deposit-insurance premiums by paying depositors  interest rates on insured deposits .  (1)

Banks do not always cover the cost of the deposit-insurance premiums by paying depositors lower interest rates on insured deposits than the banks would on uninsured deposits. (2)

是不是一回事?

请教LSAT-10-IV-8,19
Marcus: For most ethical dilemmas the journalist is likely to face, traditional journalistic ethics is clear, adequate, and essentially correct. For example, when journalists have uncovered newsworthy information, they should go to press with it as soon as possible. No delay motivated by the journalists’ personal or professional interests is permissible.

Anita: Well, Marcus, of course interesting and important information should be brought before the public-that is a journalist’s job. But in the typical case, where a journalist has some information but is in a quandary about whether it is yet important or “newsworthy,” this guidance is inadequate.

19. In order to conclude properly from Anita’s statements that Marcus’ general claim about traditional journalistic ethics is incorrect, if would have to be assumed that

(A) whether a piece of information is or is not newsworthy can raise ethical dilemmas for journalists.

(B) there are circumstances in which it would be ethically wrong for a journalist to go to press with legitimately acquired, newsworthy information.

(C) the most serious professional dilemmas that a journalist is likely to face are not ethical dilemmas

(D) there are no ethical dilemmas that a journalist is likely to face that would not be conclusively resolved by an adequate system of journalistic ethics

(E) For a system of journalistic ethics to be adequate it must be able to provide guidance in every case in which a journalist must make a professional decision

答案：A，我选了D

这是siebel的解答:

19.
MARCUS: 传统ethics好<----newsworthy information go to press fast
ANITA: newsworthy与否，有时难判断。

gap存在于认定traditional ethics好坏和能否判断newsworthy之间。A，填了这个gap.

这两题,还是有点糊涂,能否再讲讲?谢谢.

1)  应该是比较清楚了.
2)MARCUS: 在大多数记者面对的进退两难的情况下,传统的标准是准确的.后面一些费话说明他的观点.
Anita:但记者在面临whether it is yet important or “newsworthy,” 这个标准是不准确的.
可以不管Anita的反击效果.但对取反,如果whether it is yet important or “newsworthy不能让记者处于进退两难的情况下.那么Anita如何可以说明这个传统的标准不准确(MARCUS说的在xxxx,传统的标准是准确的).
D是更象一个判断. 如何真的存在journalistic ethics 不能解决的ethical dilemmas ,更anita 反驳中的没有什么关系, 是个无关选项.

反驳题:
1争论的焦点.
2一方反驳另一方的方法和过程
3最后是反击的效果..
