[問題]問一題 CR1000的 TEST B 第二題..

[surfingdream (好多東西)]

In the years since the city of London imposed strict air-pollution
regulations on local industry, the number of bird species seen in and around
London has increased dramatically. Similar air-pollution rules should be
imposed in other major cities.

Each of the following is an assumption made in the argument above EXCEPT:

(A) In most major cities, air-pollution problems are caused almost entirely
by local industry.

(B) Air-pollution regulations on industry have a significant impact on the
quality of the air.

(C) The air-pollution problems of other major cities are basically similar to
those once suffered by London.

(D) An increase in the number of bird species in and around a city is
desirable.

(E) The increased sightings of bird species in and around London reflect an
actual increase in the number of species in the area.

我在A跟D之間想了想,最後選 D
我知道 A 不是assumption, 因為London的AP沒提到是誰造成。
想不通的是 D, 我以為這個答案應該是 irrelevant

有人可以麻煩解釋一下 D 嗎?

ps.正確答案是A,其他都是假設,A不是

推 flac:你題目是否看錯了 他是問except, A是其中的假設沒錯阿
→ flac:題目說 空污的規範是針對倫敦地區的工業 今天這規範要用在其
→ flac:他城市的話 空污的起因也應該是那地方的工業才是
→ flac:D的意思大概是說 鳥品種的增加對城市而言是件令人期待的事情
→ flac:但是題目只把鳥增加視為空氣改善的結果 並未說明當初解決空污
→ flac:的用意 所以D作為假設就顯為薄弱了些
→ surfingdream:正確答案是A, 所以A不是假設喔!

推 flac:好吧 換人
推 flac:http://ohaha.net/ol5e 這裡有些討論 關鍵出在entirely吧
→ surfingdream:呵呵,其實我也有去看,A我想是沒問題
→ surfingdream:重點是D為何不是例外,後來我把D加個 "not" desire
→ surfingdream:如果不是 desirable 看來就會破壞原本argument
→ surfingdream:所以它是 assumption
推 Vinicks:Why (E) is an assumption for the question??????
