[問題]GWD23-40

[ergh]

Political advocacy groups have begun to use information services to disseminate information that is then accessed by the public via personal computer. Since many groups are thus able to bypass traditional news sources, whose reporting is selective, and to present their political views directly to the public, information services present a more balanced picture of the complexities of political issues than any traditional news source presents.

Which of the following is an assumption on which the argument above depends?

A.Information services are accessible to enough people to ensure that political advocacy groups can use these services to reach as large a percentage of the public as they could through traditional news sources.
B.People could get a thorough understanding of a particular political issue by sorting through information provided by several traditional news sources, each with differing editorial biases.
C.Information on political issues disseminated through information services does not come almost entirely from advocacy groups that share a single bias.
D.Traditional news sources seldom report the views of political advocacy groups accurately.
E.Most people who get information on political issues from newspapers and other traditional news sources can readily identify the editorial biases of those sources.
參考答案為C，我想請問A錯在那兒?

檢視題意，more balanced picture of the complexities of political issues，是報導的政治內容要平衡，可是前面的描述，都是著重於傳統與資訊服務所能傳遞給大眾的影響範圍，而非政治議題的範圍.

A為著重在兩者傳遞給大眾的影響範圍
C則是政治議題的範圍

不知大大有否其他想法呢?我對C還是很質疑

把C的not拿掉
C就變成反駁了
加入not，成為反駁的反駁，負負得正，可以作為assumption

就如你所說的，A在討論接觸的廣度，而沒在討論bias的問題，與題目討論的重點無關

那為什麼 D 錯呢??

C. Information on political issues disseminated through information services does not come almost entirely from advocacy groups that share a single bias -> 透過這些資訊服務不會只有看見都是從政治團體出來的己見

D. Traditional news sources seldom report the views of political advocacy groups accurately.->舊的資源很少出現政治團體的精確觀點

這兩個看起來都可以是這篇文章的 assumption耶??
那要該如何下手選呢??

assumption的答案比support還好選..因為它屬support的一部分..只是範圍更限縮...只限定在"否定weaken"....所以找否定weaken的答案最快...
另外來點小弟自己發現的用"語氣"判斷答題....assumption找有假設法感覺的
看到直說法的全砍...答案A.B直說法...答案D.E也是....
另外答案E更爛...還扯到other...這個用考試技巧就可以排除....

我想assumption最容易讓人產生疑惑的答案一定是"重述前提"或是"重述前提細節"...這種答案看習慣就知道不對....
答案D就是屬於這種答案....重述(也是直說法)前提"傳統新聞比較不客觀"...再重述一次無法增強結論...必須找另外一個證據來支持...

條件式敘述常帶否定,是不是看到 not ,成為答案的機會就大得多?

請問一下原文中, 哪句話有表明是在bias的問題呢?
看了幾遍還是看不出來耶....

文章的最後一段話："more balanced picture of the complexities of political issues than any traditional news source presents " ~
這樣肯定的口氣(more balanced) 表示背後的假設是~~~~~~(真的是公正的，不會偏坦某個團體的言論)

所以(c)
information services does not come almost entirely from advocacy groups that share a single bias (不會完全是某一團隊的單一說法 (不會有bias)

以上 參考
