问题 Nursing schools cannot attract a greater number of able applicants than they currently do unless the problems of low wages and high-stress working conditions in the nursing profession are solved. If the pool of able applicants to nursing school does not increase beyond the current level, either the profession will have to lower its entrance standards, or there will soon be an acute shortage of nurses. It is not certain, however, that lowering entrance standards will avert a shortage. It is clear that with either a shortage of nurses or lowered entrance standards for the profession, the current high quality of health care cannot be maintained. Which one of the following can be properly inferred from the passage?
选项 A、If the nursing profession solves the problems of low wages and high-stress working conditions, it will attract able applicants in greater numbers than it currently does.
B、The nursing profession will have to lower its entrance standards if the pool of able applicants to nursing school does not increase beyond the current level.
C、If the nursing profession solves the problems of low wages and high-stress working conditions, high quality health care will be maintained.
D、If the nursing profession fails to solve the problems of low wages and high-stress working conditions, there will soon be an acute shortage of nurses.
E、The current high quality of health care will not be maintained if the problems of low wages and high-stress working conditions in the nursing profession are not solved.
答案E
解析 本题的逻辑关系是，由①护士职业内的低工资和高度紧张的工作条件问题得不到解决一②护士学校就不能吸引到比目前数量更多的有才干的申请者一③护士职业降低它的进入标准或者出现护士紧缺的局面一④目前高质量的健康护理不能维持下去。根据这个逻辑关系的第一句话和最后一句话即可得知(E)为正确答案；(A)和(C)分别是①→②与①→④的否命题，原命题正确，否命题不一定正确，所以(A)和(C)都不能从短文中合理地推出；(B)错在后半句，因为根据②一⑧可知，护士学校可以不降低它的入学标准，只不过是出现护士紧缺的局面罢了；(D)也错在后半句，由(D)的前半句可推出③，而由③却不能合理地推出(D)选项的后半句，因为短文中说得很明白，降低进入标准只是不一定能解决护士的不足，但仍存在能解决护士不足的可能性。
