问一个assumption题以及由此导出的方法

题目

GWD3-Q32:C

Newspaper editorial:

In an attempt to reduce the crime rate, the governor is getting tough on criminals and making prison conditions harsher.  art of this effort has been to deny inmates the access they formerly had to college-level courses.  However, this action is clearly counter to the governor’s ultimate goal, since after being released form prison, inmates who had taken such courses committed far fewer crimes overall than other inmates.

Which of the following is an assumption on which the argument depends?

A.      Not being able to take college-level courses while in prison is unlikely to deter anyone from a crime that he or she might otherwise have committed. B.       Former inmates are no more likely to commit crimes than are members of the general population.

C.      The group of inmates who chose to take college-level courses were not already less likely than other inmates to commit crimes after being released.  

D.      Taking high school level courses in prison has less effect on an inmate’s subsequent behavior than taking college-level courses does.

E.       The governor’s ultimate goal actually is to gain popularity by convincing people that something effective is being done about crime.

我是在A,C之间徘徊,感觉这2个选项很绕,脑子转不过来。有谁能针对这题给我解释下呢?

我看某人的笔记上说这题是个典型的Assumption-就是支持题目和削弱题目的综合,先支持后削弱才是正确选项,可以先当支持题目做,然后取非验证。--这话我一直看不懂。哪位大侠用通俗点的意思讲解下哦?

A 对。请把Assumption题型当作是增强(support)题来做。所以A正确。

C 错。因为C其实是Governor的想法(assumption)的一部分,而不是Newspaper Editorial的

想法。
“一旦释放(after being released),在狱中上过大学课程的囚犯并不一定(not already)比

未在狱中上过大学课程的囚犯犯罪几率小。”

某人的笔记,请参考FF逻辑。简单的说,就是,Assumption题型中有一类题,正确答案的带有

NOT等否定词,如果把NOT去掉后,这个选项可以削弱原文。——也就是我在一开始告诉您的,

请把Assumption当作Support题来思考。

稍微明白了点,总归一句话-正确的答案取非之后可以削弱原文

是选C啊,不是A

TOP

我个人认为选A;请后来的牛牛指正。

我这么想:
a只说在狱里不上college-level courses的话不能远离犯罪, 但不表示上了就一定远离犯罪。

所以a不对。
c说那些在狱里上 college-level courses的人,上之前并不比不上 college-level courses的

人出狱后重新犯罪的可能性小。 这正说明是上 college-level courses对他们向善起了作用。

所以c对。
取非啥的,我不是太懂了 请牛人指点。。。。

C是不是排除了因果倒置?

TOP

原文在说"在监狱里上了课的和不上课的人出来后犯罪率高低的比较"
A 答案说可能不可能deter的问题 (无关)
C答案说这两个群体的比较

《儒吏辩》 

结构:fficeffice" />

  酷吏云:严刑,苦狱(例如:学都不让上)---〉〉降低犯罪率(看丫的还犯罪)

 

  儒者曰:非也。出狱之后,那些在狱中上学的孩子们(比那些没有上学,被严刑拷打的人)犯罪少了----〉〉酷吏招不灵。

 

--问:儒者的假设。   

 

既然相比,孩子们犯罪的本性首先要一样哦。即,有相同的犯罪可能性。在此前提下,上学者出来后少犯罪,学,使之向善也;不学者多犯罪,酷吏趋之向恶也。

 

开开玩笑,轻松一下。

GMAT逻辑太绕了,怎么能快速的转化成易于理解的思维呢?  请多提意见啊。
