Popular culture in the United States has become Europeanized to an extent unimaginable twenty-five years ago. Not many people then drank wine with meals, and no one drank imported mineral water. No idea would have been more astonishing than that Americans would pay to watch soccer games. Such thoughts arise because of a report that the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials has just adopted a proposal to develop the country’s first comprehensive interstate system of routes for bicycles. Which of the following inferences is best supported by the passage?
选项
A、Long-distance bicycle routes are used in Europe.
B、Drinking imported mineral water is a greater luxury than drinking imported wine.
C、United States culture has benefited from exposure to foreign ideas.
D、Most Europeans make regular use of bicycles.
E、The influence of the United States on European culture has assumed unprecedented proportions in the last twenty-five years.
答案
A
解析
本段落的结论是第一句话“Popular culture in the United States has become Europeanized. . .”;原因(或前提)是最后一句话“Such thoughts arise because of a report. . .”。即上面段落的推理可以简化为:因为美国准备开发州际自行车道路系统,所以美国的大众文化欧洲化了。现在让我们找出一个被上面段落所支持的一个推论,很明显,本题要让我们找一个使上面推理的结论成立的一个必要条件。(A)说明欧洲使用long—distance自行车道路系统,再加上美国准备开发interstate自行车道路系统,必然能得到“美国文化欧洲化”的结论。所以(A)是结论成立的必要条件。如果对(A)取非,欧洲没有使用long—distance自行车道路系统,那么“美国文化欧洲化”这个结论必然不对。另外,我们注意到,long—distance与interstate是同义词,所以(A)正确。(D)最易误选,选(D)的人犯了递进推理的错误,认为如果欧洲人经常使用自行车,那么就必然有自行车道路系统,而自行车道路系统中必然有长距离自行车线路系统,但是递推的这两步在段落之中并没有涉及,因此(D)不正确;(B)中涉及的是imported mineral water和im—ported wine的比较,而上文中根本没有这个比较,因此也不对;(C)中的benefit涉及段落中没有的新的价值判断;(E)说明美国对欧洲文化的影响,和上面段落探讨的“欧洲对美国文化的影响”相违背,必不正确。
