看到事件结果，确认原因的类型 (确认之原因) an interest in culture and the arts, especially music, has a positive impact on academic performance. (看到结果) students attending schools that offered classes --> score higher 所以相对应的跳跃思考部分为 an interest in culture and the arts VS students attending schools that offered classes 也就是说 作者认为 学校有 offer art & music class 就是原本 theory (原因) 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. 连接了 "学校有提供 art & music 课程" "和对 art & music 有兴趣" 而答案 (E) 说 除了学校以外 没有其他管道可以 develp interest "opportunities to develop interest" 并没有像 (C) 来得这麽直接 "possessed a higher average level of interest" 且 Assumption 和 support 不同点是 Assumption 的对象 多半在讨论 Argument 之中的事物 Argument 里面所说的 是 students attending schools that offers classes 所以 (C) 比较像 Assumption (E) 像是 Support 请比较以下一样的题目 但一个是 Assumption 一个是 Support 即可了解我提到的概念: Assumption: http://www.kaogmat.com/question/1345.html Support: http://www.kaogmat.com/question/3363.html ※ 引述《Metonymia (Metonymia)》之铭言： : 估狗过了, 如果有重复还请见谅! 这题是老题目了: : 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 agrument 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. : 问: 答案是C还是E呢? : (很多人选C.... ) : 这题问的是Assumption. 我的解法如下 : A 错, 题目没说 : B 错, 题目没说 : D 错, 题目没提到'选课'(enrolment)和成绩的关系 : 为什麽我觉得C错: : 本题的argument是说, 对音乐的兴趣和学业成绩成正比. 有提供文化艺术音乐等 : 课程的学校, 学生的学业成绩'相较於'那些没有提供文化艺术音乐课程学校的学生 : 来得高.(不好意思有点拗口) : 我初看觉得这是一个很可能的假设, 因为对音乐文化有兴趣--> 教育学家又认为 : 对音乐文化的兴趣和学业成正比--> 故这些去有提供音乐文化课程学校的学生 : 成绩较好 : 但是总是有怪怪的地方, 从题目我们只知道凡是去有提供音乐艺术文化这类课程 : 学校的学生, 成绩较好, 但是我们不知道他们是否都有'兴趣' : 另外C选项结尾的...'than did students at other schools'也很可疑, 有种 : out of scope的感觉. 文中学校的分类只有一个标准 - 有没有提供艺术类课程. : E 我觉得是对的, 因为排除了这个因素, 才能确保这两群学生之间唯一的差别 : 在於学校是否有提供艺术类课程. 也因此才能确保'学校课程'与'成绩'之间的相关性. : 不过E感觉又不太像是'假设'... : 所以C跟E到底怎麽选呢? : 不好意思解释的很混乱啊QQ~ 逻辑真差... 还请大大们帮帮我吧~~~ -- Dounts GMAT 资讯网站: http://ndxica.pixnet.net/blog --
