3. GWD25-Q3.

Mel: The official salary for judges has always been too low to attract the best

Candidates to the job. The legislature’s move to raise the salary has

done nothing to improve the situation, because it was coupled with

a ban on receiving money for lectures and teaching engagements.

Pat: No, the raise in salary really does improve the situation. Since very few

judges teach or give lectures, the ban will have little or no negative

effect.

Pat’s response to Mel is inadequate in that it

A. attempts to assess how a certain change will affect potential members

of a group by providing evidence about its effect on the current members.

B. mistakenly takes the cause of a certain change to be an effect of that change

C. attempts to argue that a certain change will have a positive effect merely

by pointing to the absence of negative effects

D. simply denies Mel’s claim without putting forward any evidence in support

of that denial

E. assumes that changes that benefit the most able members of a group

答案是a，我选的是b。可以告诉我下原因吗？

necessarily benefit all members of that group.

A选项跟作文里的一个题型很像，现在的不代表将来的

我也选的B，那么多讨论帖都是讨论C的，没人说下为什么B不对吗

顶上去！我也是选的B，求解释~

a certain change是指raise the salary
Cause就是The official salary for judges has always been too low to attract the best Candidates to the job.
哪里有将Cause变成Effect了呢？B是明显错的

题目讨论的是新措施——增加薪水且禁止演讲收费——对吸引候选人竞争法官职位的影响
A，Pat 用现有法官赚外快的比例不多来推断候选人中赚外快的比例也不多
C，Pat 通过除去新政中的不利影响来说明新政是成功的
明显 A 才是 Pat 的推理错误。
Pat 没有表明要除去 ban（不利因素），只说了 ban 对现有法官基本没有影响，并以此为基础推断潜在候选人基本也不受 Ban 的影响
因此选 A

我的理解是这样的，因为有了ban，所以教课讲学的人少了，然后P用这个影响当做了原因，认为因为教课讲学的人少所以取消ban也没太大作用。我觉得是循环论证了。我当时选的B，但是B反了，说的是把原因当做结果。现在看了大多数人的意见，觉得A比较正确。
