GWD-4-Q14:
Guidebook writer:
I have visited hotels throughout the country and have noticed that in those built before 1930 the quality of the original carpentry work is generally superior to that in hotels built afterward.
Clearly carpenters working on hotels before 1930 typically worked with more skill, care, and effort than carpenters who have worked on hotels built subsequently.


Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the guidebook writer’s argument

    A       The quality of original carpentry in hotels is generally far superior to the quality of original carpentry in other structures, such as houses and stores.
    B      Hotels built since 1930 can generally accommodate more guests than those built before 1930.

    C      The materials available to carpenters working before 1930 were not significantly different in quality from the materials available to carpenters working after 1930.

    D      The better the quality of original carpentry in a building, the less likely that building is to fall into disuse and be demolished.


E      The average length of apprenticeship for carpenters has declined significantly since 1930.      [D]

是否我理解上有不准的地方,请指教:


Guidebook writer用这句话表示原因:


...hotels ...that in those built before 1930 the quality of the original carpentry work is generally superior to that in hotels built afterward.

比较的是:
修建于1930前和后不同宾馆内部的the quality of the original carpentry work -------注意两个built的修饰对象,都是hotels。
请仔细阅读,没有提供fall into disuse and be demolished的任何线索--------修建不同宾馆和对同一宾馆的维修是两码事。


然而:D,表达的是同一宾馆内部的情况。好就持久,不好才需要修------是针对同一宾馆而言所以个人感觉与原文原因线索相偏,没落入scope,排除。



本题个人选择B,more guests 所以more 磨损。但又感觉多推了一步。

作何理解才正确?请大N赐教!

D is right.  

More people staying in the hotel doesn't mean the originality should be compromised.  

"Disuse and be demolished" will make the things lose their original quality

the better one conserved today maybe the small part of buildings in the past.Because the better one is standing and worse one has fallen ,we found that dedicated bulidings stand always.So we can not draw the conculsion that buildings made yesterday were so good that could always stand for such a long time since we just saw the better ones and get the worse one omitted.
