※ 引述《nnpp (心的距离)》之铭言:
: ※ 引述《ttvliao (V)》之铭言:
: : In Kravonia, the average salary for jobs requiring a college degree has
: : always been higher than the average salary for jobs that do not require
: : a degree. Over the last few years, the number of Kravonians enrolled in
: : college has been growing steadily. Therefore, the number of Kravonians
: : entering the job market who have at least the qualification of a college
: : degree will eventually be significantly higher than it has been over the
: : last few years.
: : Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument?
: : A. Kravonians with more than one college degree earn little more, on
: : average, than do Kravonians with only one college degree.
: : B. The average number of years Kravonian college students remain
: : enrolled before completing a degree has been increasing over
: : the past several years.
: : C. Despite the increase in the number of Kravonians attending college,
: : the percentage of the population attending college is lower in
: : Kravonia than in most other countries.
: : D. In recent years, employers have been requiring college degrees for
: : workers in jobs that were previously performed successfully by
: : Kravonians who did not have college degrees.
: : E. For many years, employers in Kravonia have had difficulty finding
: : enough college graduates to fill the high-paying jobs that were available.
: : 答案是B,我在排除後可以选择B,但就是想不通怎麽去weaken...
: : 请大大帮个忙
: 题目说:enroll人数增加,所以进入职场的人数也会增加
: B说:enroll人数的增加是来自於remain enroll。
: 所以weaken。因为毕业的人数并没有增多。
: 注意B选项的主词是number在increase,不是years在increase。
: 你若是翻成毕业的时间拉长就错哩。要翻成多年制大学的学生,再来一次登记入学
: 的情形增加了!
答案(B)选项
The average number of years Kravonian college students remain
enrolled before completing a degree has been increasing over
the past several years.
这句话主词是:
(the average) number (of years)
然後接了关系子句
(that) Kravonian college ... a degree
接着是动词
(has been) increasing (over ... years)
所以整句话是
(K校学生注册之後但没有毕业的)年数(在过去数年)
持续增加中。
这句话真的是「毕业年数加长了」,而非人数增加。
结论还是「有注册没毕业」但是并不是
「多年制大学的学生,再来一次登记入学的情形增加了」。
