问题 Superficially, college graduates in 1982 resemble college graduates of 1964; they are fairly conservative, well dressed, and interested in tradition; they respect their parents. But there is a deep-seated difference: a majority of the members of the class of 1982 who were surveyed in their freshman year stated that making a good income was an important reason for their decision to go to college. The statements in the passage above, if true, best support which of the following conclusions?

选项 A、The concerns of college graduates of 1964 were superficial compared to the financial worries of college graduates of 1982.
B、Fewer than half the students of the class of 1964 declared as freshmen that they entered college in order to increase their earning potential.
C、Educational background did not play as significant a part in determining income in 1964 as it does in 1982.
D、A majority of the members of the class of 1964 revised their reasons for attending college between their freshman year and college graduation.
E、College graduates of 1964 were actually less conservative than college graduates of 1982.

答案B

解析 本题读题重点为“but”后面的内容,并问从“but”后的那一句话能得到下面哪一个结论,,一般地,当段落推理涉及两者比较的时候,考虑比较对象并且重点思考隐含比较的另一方往往是有效的。注意到段落中的“majority”,(B)中的“fewer than half”与之相对,并且指出隐含比较的另一方即1964年的大学生与1982年的大学生之间的差异,所以(B)正确;(A)中的“financial worries”是一个更加广泛的概念,且从上面段落也得不出这样一个比较,从某种程度上讲,(A)支持了上面的推理,但本题是“自上而下”的归纳,所以(A)不对;(C)是一个新的比较,(C)虽可以部分解释上面的推理,但从上面推不出来,所以(C)为无关答案;(D)与段落推理不沾边;而(E)直接与上面段落信息相违背,因此(D)、(E)都不对。
