some questions on assumption:
1)A company's personal director surveyed employees about their satisfation with the company's system for awarding employee performance ratings.The survey data indicated that employees who received high ratings were very satified with the system.The personel director concluded from these data that the company's best-performing employees liked the system.
The personel director's conclusion assumes which of the following?
A)No other performance rating system is as good as the current sysytem..
B)The company's best-performing employees received high ratings.
C)Employees who receive low ratings were dissatisfied with the system.
D)Employees who received high ratings from a performance-rating system will like that sysytem.
E)The company's best-performing employees were motivated to perform well by the knowledge that they would receive performance ratings.
如何分析这道题,正确的是B,为什么D不可以呢?若用取非,D也可以否定原文呀?我觉得假设题真得很难,可以有什么方法让我掌握如何解题吗?
我试着分析一下：
本文有这么两部分：第一部分是employees who received high ratings were very satified with the system；第二部分是the company's best-performing employees liked the system。其中的第一部分是现象，第二部分是从这个现象得出的结论，比较一下这两部分你会发现这里的employees指的是同一类人（同意吧？因为现象中说这类人对这一系统很满意，结论中说这类人很喜欢这个系统），但是要注意employees都有定语修饰着，一个是who received high ratings另一个是best performing，显然得最高分的不一定就是表现最好的，反之表现最好的也不一定得最高分啊（这一点在你的年度回顾中应有深刻体会吧？呵呵！）。但要表示同一个人，怎办？搭个桥作个假设啊，得最高分的就是表现最好的（或表现最好的就是得最高分的）。
