Fei Fei,Q115

115. School superintendent: It is a sad fact that, until now, entry into the academically best high school in our district has been restricted to the children of people who were wealthy enough to pay the high tuition. Parents who were previously denied the option of sending their children to this school now have the option, since I am replacing the tuition requirement with a requirement that allows only those who live in the neighborhood of the school to attend.

The superintendent’s claim about the effect of replacing the tuition requirement relies on the assumption that

A.the residents of the school’s neighborhood tent to be wealthy
B.people other than those wealthy enough to have paid the old tuition are able to live in the neighborhood of the school
C.people less wealthy than those who were able to pay the old tuition are in the majority in the district
D.there are no high schools in the district other than the one referred to by the superintendent
E.there are many people not wealthy enough to have paid the old tuition who wish to have their children attend the school
the answer is B but I choose C
想請問大家意見
謝謝

文章----以前沒錢念好學校的人現在可以了,因為他要把一項新的學費措施套用在那些住在學校附近的住家

這麼一來,暗示住在學校附近都是沒錢的

b--付不出學費的人可以負擔住學校附近

所以選b

[freshmanduke]

可是C好像說該區大部分多是住著較沒錢的的人
這好像也對啊! 一樣可以推出假設
還是這題的觀念只是能力假設 所以選B?

[Behemoth]

你c沒看清楚喔~

c----那些比付得出學費稍微窮一點的人站本區大部分

但是重點是,稍微窮一點=付不出學費嗎?

之前 我也是有想到
不過不太確定這些人是不是可以afford tution
應該是我想錯了
anyway,謝謝幫忙

想請教一下，最後這句話「since I am replacing the tuition requirement with a requirement that allows only those who live in the neighborhood of the school to attend. 」
是指說：如果不想繳學費的人，就必需住在學校附近嗎?
怎麼感覺這句話不太好懂，各位也有同感嗎…還是只有我呀
呼~~~快考試了說
