GWD-7-Q38:B

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?

 

 

1. Has anybody else who has fulfilled the financial disclosure requirement for the upcoming election reported greater financial holdings than Bergeron?

2. Is submitting a list of holdings the only way to fulfill the election commission’s financial disclosure requirements?

3. Did the information recently obtained by the journalists come directly from the election commission?

4. Have Bergeron’s financial holdings increased in value in recent years?

5. Had Bergeron also fulfilled the financial disclosure requirements for candidacy before any previous gubernatorial elections?

整理一下逻辑思路：

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.  （facts）However, we have just learned that Bergeron has fulfilled the financial disclosure requirement for candidacy （那又如何？我认为这是gap，不代表他要竞选）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.

AB很受欢迎，但始终没有参加竞选。

现在他the financial disclosure requirement （布等于他要参加）

结论：AB会成为候选人。

结论若成立，有两个隐藏的假设：

1 fulfill the financial disclosure requirement 等于他要参加

2 很受欢迎===〉成为候选人。

E和第一个假设相关。
