OG-44

没人问过44题我来问:

Some people have questioned the judge’s objectivity in cases of sex discrimination against women. But the record shows that in sixty percent of such cases, the judge has decided in favor of the women. This record demonstrates that the judge has not discriminated against women in cases of sex discrimination against women.

The argument above is flawed in that it ignores the possibility that

A. a large number of the judge’s cases arose out of allegations of sex discrimination against women

B. many judges find it difficult to be objective in cases of sex discrimination against women

C. the judge is biased against women defendants or plaintiffs in cases that do not involve sex discrimination

D. the majority of the cases of sex discrimination against women that have reached the judge’s court have been appealed from a lower court

E. the evidence shows that the women should have won in more than sixty percent of the judge’s cases involving sex discrimination against women

The flaw in the argument is that is assumes erroneously that a majority of decisions favorable to women in sex discrimination cases demonstrates absence of discriminatory behavior against women on the part of the judge who made those decisions. E exposes this flaw by pointing out that the judge may well have failed to decide in favor of women in cases where evidence shows that the women should have won. Therefore, it is the best answer.

A and D have no bearing on the reasoning of the argument, because the origin of the cases is not at issue in the argument. B and C introduce considerations with no bearing on the reasoning of the argument. Because the argument concerns a particular judge, and cases of a particular type, B and C are inappropriate.

不是很懂这个部份耶~

E是说证据显示要大于60%的支持才能赢了女性岐视官司所以证明statement中所叙法官没有偏坦女性的说法是有缺陷的吗??

谢谢~

yes. it's quite obvious that there should be more than 60% of such cases be judged in favor of women, while it's only 60%. --> the judges discriminated against women on sex discrimination cases. --> answer E points out the flaw in the conclusion.
