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
又不是题设说他没有满足作者: natalietong 时间: 2010-8-19 20:00
Evaluation.
Situation：AB以前经常说要run for governor，但是没有。
最近AB向election commission发送了一个详细的financial holding list
Conclusion: 很有可能AB今年会是一个candidate
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: ddwantsmba 时间: 2010-8-23 20:00
这个唯一标准 vs 唯一方法的理解还是不太明白。
是不是标准衡量：submitting a list of holdings
但是方法：通过这方式去达到作为candidate。
