求教 狒狒 115题

115. School superintendent: It is a sad fact that, until now, entry into the academically best high school in our district has been restricted to the children of people who were wealthy enough to pay the high tuition. Parents who were previously denied the option of sending their children to this school now have the option, since I am replacing the tuition requirement with a requirement that allows only those who live in the neighborhood of the school to attend. The superintendent’s claim about the effect of replacing the tuition requirement relies on the assumption that
A. the residents of the school’s neighborhood tent to be wealthy
B. people other than those wealthy enough to have paid the old tuition are able to live in the neighborhood of the school
C. people less wealthy than those who were able to pay the old tuition are in the majority in the district
D. there are no high schools in the district other than the one referred to by the superintendent
E. there are many people not wealthy enough to have paid the old tuition who wish to have their children attend the school

答案：B 思路： 本题中的替。。。法必须顾及两点，一交不起老学费的可以来读书，而且交不起学费的应能够 live in the neighborhood of the school，如果穷人不能住在这个学校附近，这个替代是无意义的。
A. 反对文中办法。
B. 文中没有提到符合题意。
C. 太偏，文中只讨论the neighborhood of the school，are in the majority in the district并不意味着live in the neighborhood of the school。
D. 文中没有提到。
E. 易混淆，文中已经包含这个意思，不是题目要问的问题。


我选的E，因为在这个是首要原因，但在原文中我似乎找不到已经提及了，只说了：那些付不起学费的家长...没说住在附近啊

这种assumption的题目一开始我也很纠结，总是选到那种答案说文中已

经有的选项，但是自从看了那本逻辑bible这种问题就再也不难啦（我在做

广告么）

这么来说吧，这种assumption的题目通常本身逻辑叙述较为完整，但是会有

一个小gap，或者说有一个漏洞存在，你要做的就是找出这个漏洞，帮他补

上去。

题目这个官员说，我对这些好学校收那么贵学费很桑心啊，只有有钱人才能

上啦，不公平啦。我改掉学校招人按学费这个标准啦，只要住在附近就有机

会上学，这样就算穷人也可以进这些名校啦。

看上去是不是挺有道理咧，可是楼主你想想哦，改到附近的人就能上这个学

校是不是就等于给穷人多点机会？不一定哦，万一住在附近的都是富豪，那

改不改还不是一样？

要是在考场上没那么多脑筋来想，想投机取巧下，其实也很简单。这种

assumption的题因为要补漏洞嘛，题干通常都是否定式，而且都是很长的，

乍一看去还有和题目无关的嫌疑（因为你没想到有这个漏洞存在）

用这个方法就可以迅速解题啦

再补充，我理解楼主意思，楼主想说，这个论述的前提就是，得有穷人

付不起学费才成立呀，如果大家都付得起学费，那么就不存在这个困难啦。

楼主你再细细琢磨下题目，你就会发现你想说的和题目说的有偏差。
It is a sad fact that, until now, entry into the academically best

high school in our district has been restricted to the children of

people who were wealthy enough to pay the high tuition. Parents

who were previously denied the option of sending their children to

this school now have the option

这两句已经imply了，有一些人想送孩子去这些学校，可是却付不起学费。

所以楼主在读题干时候就要理解题目想说什么哦。万一真的被迷惑了，最好

的办法就是重读题目或者问题，这样就能get到point了

这题我印象很深，前不久刚遇到。
我的assumption做法是这样。分析结果，措施和背景，取中间逻辑的缺失处就是assumption。
结果：邻里社区的学生无论出生富裕还是不富裕（文中意思是即便不富裕）都能进入这所最好高中。
措施：负责人提出一个计划就是这所最好高中的录取方向从家庭条件转移到社区范围。
背景：很多人付不出学费从而没有选择这所高中。
缺失处：那些付不出学费的人是不是就住在这个社区呢？
可见答案就是B。
E很明显是文中的意思，就是第二句：Parents who were previously denied the option of sending their children to this school now have the option。。。这里已经说家长不考虑把学生送到这所高中是因为付不出学费。那很明显，家长有考虑过送到这高中，不过因为付不出学费而放弃了。
再者，我觉得逻辑题要抓住几个中心词，这题的中心词是neighborhood，best high school，not wealthy。最佳选项应该逻辑上都包含这些中心词，否则，比如说E这个选项，根本没有提到neighborhood，这让“学校负责人提出涉及到社区邻里录取的计划”这个措施没有什么意义，丧失了针对性。

终于明白了，感谢楼上大牛的细心解答，感恩！

非常好的解释。其实A是比较好预知选项的。
