The best argument for the tenure system that protects professional employment in universities is that it allows veteran faculty to hire people smarter than they are and yet remain secure in the knowledge that unless they themselves are caught in an act of moral turpitude—a concept that in the present climate almost defies definition—the younger faculty cannot turn around and fire them. This is not true in industry. Which of the following assumptions is most likely to have been made by the author of the argument above?
选项
A、Industry should follow the example of universities and protect the jobs of managers by instituting a tenure system.
B、If no tenure system existed, veteran faculty would be reluctant to hire new faculty who might threaten the veteran faculty’s own jobs.
C、The traditional argument that the tenure system protects scholars in universities from being dismissed for holding unconventional or unpopular beliefs is no longer persuasive.
D、If a stronger consensus concerning what constitutes moral turpitude existed, the tenure system in universities would be expendable.
E、Veteran faculty will usually hire and promote new faculty whose scholarship is more up-to-date than their own.
答案
B
解析
笔者曾拿这道题让一美国考生做,那位美国考生读完题目,看完选项,就把(B)选了出来,他认为(B)就是段落的第一句话换了一种说法,此题的关键在于读题、当我们把题目读懂后,发现“长期聘用制度”发生在前,“老资格的教员愿意雇用比他们年轻的教员”发生在后,所以前者为A,后者为B,从A能得到B吗?我们需要做一假设。(B)选项指出若没有tenure system(
),那么就没有老资格教员愿意去雇用新教员(
),即
→
,而其逆否命题为B→A,说明A是B的一个必要条件,所以(B)是一个无因就无果(即A可行或A有意义)的假设,因此(B)正确。(D)易误选,但对(D)取非,发现段落推理仍然可以成立,所以(D)不正确。
