91、boldface roles: (Employees over 40 years old seldom have achievements),, however, Therefore, ?.is due to (emoloyees over 40 years old have been in the same field for too long time). Two questions choices: 1. The first sentence is a pattern, the second supports the arguer’s conclusion. 2. The first is a generalization, and second supports the arguer’s conclusion
WAHT"S DIFERENCE BETWEEN PATTERN AND GENERALIZATION
I think the correct ans is 1.
What the differetiation of the pattern and the generalization depends on how the paragragh is sturcted.
Here the later setence serves the casue to the event described in the first sentence. Therefore, the relationship between the two are not GENERALIZTION- SUPPORT and then the alternative 2 can be ruled out.
I concur the correct answer is 2.
This BF question is incomplete one. After "however" in the question, the author must provide some evidence to support his conclusion which was discribed after the word "therefore". " due to" should be used to provide additional reasons to support the conclusion that the author insisted.
According to the differece between "pattern" and " generalization, I think that the mean of the first sentence is to illustrate a generalization.
