A trade group for liquor retailers put out a press release with an
alarming headline; " Millions of Kids Buy Internet Alcohol,
Landmark Survey Reveals. "
The announcement, from the Wine and Spirits Wholesalers of
America, received widely media attention. On NBC’s Today Show,【S1】______
Lea Thompson said, "According to a new online survey, one in 10
teenagers has an underage friend who has ordered beer, wine or【S2】______
liquor over the Internet. More than a third think they can easily do
it but nearly half think they won’t get caught. " Several newspapers【S3】______
mentioned the study, including USA Today and the Record of New
Jersey. The news even made Australia’s Gold Coast Bulletin.
Are millions of kids really buying booze online? To arrive that【S4】______
shocking headline, the group used some questioning logic to pump【S5】______
up the results from a survey that was already tilted in favor of finding【S6】______
a large number of online buyer.
For starters, consider the source. The trade group that
commissioned the survey has long fought efforts to expand online
sales of alcohol; its members are local distributors which compete【S7】______
with online liquor sellers. Some of the news coverage pointed out
that conflict of interest, though reports didn’t delve more deeply【S8】______
on how the numbers were computed.【S9】______
The Wine and Spirits Wholesalers of America hired Teenage
Research Unlimited, a research company, to design the study.
Teenage Research, in return, hired San Diego polling firm Luth【S10】______
Research to put the questions to 1,001 people between the ages of
14 and 20 in an online survey. Luth gets people to participate in its
surveys in part by advertising them online and offering small cash
awards—typically less than $5 for short surveys.
【S5】
选项
答案
questioning—questionable
解析
词性混用。questioning表示“质问”,是动名词,显然这里需要一个形容词修饰后面的logic,所以使用其形容词形式questionable“可疑的”。
