看到事件結果，確認原因的類型
(確認之原因)
an interest in culture and the arts, especially music,
has a positive impact on academic performance.
(看到結果)
students attending schools that offered classes --> score higher
所以相對應的跳躍思考部分為
an interest in culture and the arts VS
students attending schools that offered classes
也就是說 作者認為 學校有 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.
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"
且 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) 像是 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:

※ 引述《Metonymia (Metonymia)》之銘言：
: 估狗過了, 如果有重複還請見諒! 這題是老題目了:
: 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.
: 問: 答案是C還是E呢?
: (很多人選C.... )
: 這題問的是Assumption. 我的解法如下
: A 錯, 題目沒說
: B 錯, 題目沒說
: D 錯, 題目沒提到'選課'(enrolment)和成績的關係
: 為什麼我覺得C錯:
: 本題的argument是說, 對音樂的興趣和學業成績成正比. 有提供文化藝術音樂等
: 課程的學校, 學生的學業成績'相較於'那些沒有提供文化藝術音樂課程學校的學生
: 來得高.(不好意思有點拗口)
: 我初看覺得這是一個很可能的假設, 因為對音樂文化有興趣--> 教育學家又認為
: 對音樂文化的興趣和學業成正比--> 故這些去有提供音樂文化課程學校的學生
: 成績較好
: 但是總是有怪怪的地方, 從題目我們只知道凡是去有提供音樂藝術文化這類課程
: 學校的學生, 成績較好, 但是我們不知道他們是否都有'興趣'
: 另外C選項結尾的...'than did students at other schools'也很可疑, 有種
: out of scope的感覺. 文中學校的分類只有一個標準 - 有沒有提供藝術類課程.
: E 我覺得是對的, 因為排除了這個因素, 才能確保這兩群學生之間唯一的差別
: 在於學校是否有提供藝術類課程. 也因此才能確保'學校課程'與'成績'之間的相關性.
: 不過E感覺又不太像是'假設'...
: 所以C跟E到底怎麼選呢?
: 不好意思解釋的很混亂啊QQ~ 邏輯真差... 還請大大們幫幫我吧~~~
