Journalist:
Well-known businessman Arnold Bergeron has long been popular in the state, and he has often talked about running for governor, but he has never run.
However, we have just learned that Bergeron has fulfilled the financial disclosure requirement for candidacy by submitting a detailed list of his current financial holdings to the election commission.
So, it is very likely that Bergeron will be a candidate for governor this year.
The answer to which of the following questions would be most useful in evaluating the journalist’s argument?
A Has anybody else who has fulfilled the financial disclosure requirement for the upcoming election reported greater financial holdings than Bergeron?
B Is submitting a list of holdings the only way to fulfill the election commission’s financial disclosure requirements?
C Did the information recently obtained by the journalists come directly from the election commission?
D Have Bergeron’s financial holdings increased in value in recent years?
E Had Bergeron also fulfilled the financial disclosure requirements for candidacy before any previous gubernatorial elections?
为什么是E呢?B为什么不正确呢?实在是想不通啊!那位NN帮忙点化一下吧~

原文 submit --> candidate
E. 过去有没有对candidacy submit过 肯定回答削弱原文 否定回答加强原文 正确
B. 是不是only way都和结论无关

Arnold Bergeron 都已经满足条件了
到底submitting a list of holdings 是不是满足条件的唯一方法已经不重要了 反正他都满足了啊
我先也选的B,后来发现应该错了.
我先是这样理解B的:是不是submitting a list of holdings 是election commission选择候选人的唯一标准?
但它实际上说的是:是不是submitting a list of holdings 是fulfill financial disclosure的唯一方法?
所以说B是错的.不知道LZ先是不是和我想法一样.作者: 小娟子NUNU 时间: 2011-3-5 08:55
B.Is submitting a list of holdings the only way to fulfill the election commission’s financial disclosure requirements?
我試著翻譯b選項:是不是提交財物清單是唯一的方法以滿足選舉委員會對於財務揭露的規定
因此很明顯地,這個選項錯誤作者: newolder 时间: 2011-3-8 06:39
其实这道题很简单,大家不要想那么多。问题的关键在与“this year”。文章的conclusion是“So, it is very likely that Bergeron will be a candidate for governor this year.”,所以,要evaluate这个问题就要与往年对比。
