In virtually any industry，technological improvements increase labor productivity, which is the output of goods and services per person-hour worked. In Parland’s industries, labor productivity is significantly higher than it is in Vergia’s industries. Clearly, therefore, Parland’s industries must, on the whole, be further advanced technologically than Vergia’s are.
对于任何工业来说，技术的改善提高工人的生产率，即每人每小时工作生产的产品和服务的量。P的工业的工人生产率比V的工业高。所以很明显，P的工业整体一定比V技术先进。
The argument is most vulnerable to which of the following criticisms?
下列哪个批评指出的论证的错误?
A. It offers a conclusion that is no more than a paraphrase of one of the pieces of information provided in its support.
它给出了一个结论，该结论无非是文中提供支持结论的一个信息的同义改写
B. It presents as evidence in support of a claim information that is inconsistent with other evidence presented in support of the same claim.
它作为一个支持一个主张的证据，和支持同样主张的证据不一致。
C. It takes one possible cause of a condition to be the actual cause of that condition without considering any other possible causes.
它采用了一个可能的原因用来当做那个状况的真实原因，而没考虑任何其他任何可能的原因。
D. It takes a condition to be the effect of something that happened only after the condition already existed.
它认定一个情况是某件事的效果，这件事情是在该情况已经存在之后发生的。
E. It makes a distinction that presupposes the truth of the conclusion that is to be established.
它造成了一个区别，这个区别取决于所建立结论的真实性。
解析：
A. 不是文章论据的同义改写，错误
B. 质疑论据。
C. 正确答案。尽管技术进步是一个影响生产率的因素，但不意味着是唯一因素。
D. 文章中的技术进步和生产率是有先后顺序的，并不可以颠倒，错误
E. 文章没有建立某个区别。错误 |
