问题 Counselor: Every year a popular newsmagazine publishes a list of United States colleges, ranking them according to an overall numerical score that is a composite of ratings according to several criteria. However, the overall scores generally should not be used by students as the basis for deciding to which colleges to apply. Which of the following, if true, most helps to justify the counselor’ s recommendation?
选项 A、The vast majority of people who purchase the magazine in which the list appears are not college-bound students.
B、Colleges that are ranked highest in the magazine’s list use this fact in advertisements aimed at attracting students.
C、The rankings seldom change from one year to the next.
D、The significance that particular criteria have for any two students is likely to differ according to the students’ differing needs.
E、Some college students who are pleased with their schools considered the magazine’s rankings before deciding which college to attend.
答案D
解析 要解答本题，就是要找一个选项说明基于总分的排名不应当被学生们用作申请学校的标准的结论是正确的，(D)选项表明总分所依赖的particular criteria对不同的学生来说，可能会因为他们需求的不同而具有不同的重要性，也就是说学生们应根据他们各自的需要而不是根据总分来选择学校，所以(D)是正确答案；(B)是易被误选的选项，但是要注意的是，广告的内容不一定都不正确，学校的排名高是既定的事实，而不是被学校给吹捧出来的，也就是说排名高的学校用此做广告并不能说明总分不应该作为申请学校的标准。(A)、(C)和(E)都是无关选项。
