Re: [CR. ] 請教CR一題
※ 引述《Birou (十里春風不如你)》之銘言:
: Educational theorists have long hypothesized that an interest in culture and
: the arts, especially music, has a positive impact on academic performance. A
: recent study of high school seniors confirms this theory. A test measuring
: proficiency in a broad range of academic disciplines was administered to high
: school seniors in major cities in the northeastern United States. The average
: score of students who attended schools that offered classes in art history
: and music appreciation was significantly higher than that of students who
: attended schools without such cultural enrichment programs.
: The argument above assumes which of the following?
: A. At the schools offering art history and music appreciation classes,
: such classes were open to underclassmen, as well as juniors and seniors.
: B. Enrollment in the art history and music appreciation classes was
: restricted to students who had previously
: demonstrated an interest in culture and the arts.
: C. Students attending schools with cultural enrichment programs, whether
: they participated in such a program or not, possessed a higher average level
: of interest in culture and the arts than did students at other schools.
: D. Among students attending schools offering cultural enrichment classes,
: those enrolled in such classes
: performed better on the test than did those not enrolled in such classes.
: E. Students attending the schools that did not offer enrichment programs
: had no other opportunities to develop interest in culture and the arts.
: 題目意思是說,對文化和藝術有興趣,可以提高學業成績。最近一項研究顯示,有提供藝
: 術和音樂欣賞的學校同學學業分數比沒有提供這些課程的學校同學來的高。
: 我選 (E),但答案是 (C)。看了一下之後,我覺得 (C) 是 ok 的。但為何 (E) 錯呢?
正巧 2013 年有解過此題 (時間過真快),原文章連結如下:
https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/GMAT/M.1370933991.A.1F7.html
在此改寫一下自己曾經的解法
以實驗結果得到推論的類型
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
(實驗結果)
students attending schools that offered classes in art and music
--> score higher
學校有 offer 音樂歷史課的學生,普遍綜合分數較高
(得到推論)
an interest in culture and the arts, especially music,
--> positive impact on academic performance.
對藝術和音樂有興趣,對於學業成績有正面影響
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
所以相對應的跳躍思考部分為
students attending schools that offered classes in art and music (實驗)
an interest in culture and the arts, especially music, (推論)
也就是說 作者認為 (實驗) 學校有 offer art & music class
就是原本 theory (推論) 提到的 interest in culture and the arts
所以答案 (C) Students attending schools with cultural enrichment programs,
whether they participated in such a program or not, possessed
a higher average level of interest in culture and the arts than did
students at other schools.
連接了 "學校有提供 art & music 課程" 和 "對 art & music 有興趣"
而答案 (E) 說 除了這些學校以外 沒有其他管道可以 develp interest
"opportunities to develop interest" 並沒有像 (C) 來得這麼直接
"possessed a higher average level of interest"
因為題目強調的對象是 "有提供藝術和音樂課程的學校學生"
以及 "對藝術和音樂的興趣" (即為答案 (C))
而 (E) 強調的對象是 "沒有提供藝術和音樂課程的學校學生"
這部分並不是 argument 的核心
Assumption 和 support 不同點是
Assumption 的對象 多半在討論 Argument 之中的事物
Argument 裡面所說的 是 students attending schools that offers classes
所以 (C) 比較像 Assumption (E) 偏向 Support
請比較以下一樣的題目 但一個是 Assumption 一個是 Support
即可瞭解我提到的概念:
