问题 Book Review: When I read a novel set in a city I know well, I must see that the writer knows the city at least as well as I do if I am to take that writer seriously. If the writer is faking, I know immediately and do not trust that writer. When a novelist demonstrates the required knowledge, I trust the storyteller, so I trust the tale. This trust increases my enjoyment of a good novel. Peter Lee’ s second novel is set in San Francisco. In this novel, as in his first, Lee passes my test with flying colors. Which one of the following can be properly inferred from the passage?
选项 A、The book reviewer enjoys virtually any novel written by a novelist whom she trusts.
B、If the book reviewer trusts the novelist as a storyteller, the novel in question must be set in a city the book reviewer knows well.
C、Peter Lee’s first novel was set in San Francisco.
D、The book reviewer does not trust any novel set in a city that she does not know well.
E、The book reviewer does not believe that she knows San Francisco better than Peter Lee does.
答案 E
解析 这个图书评论者认为，一本以她熟知的某一城市为背景的小说要想通过她的检查，它的作者对这个城市的了解至少得和她一样深刻，也就是说只有在图书评论者认为她对这个城市的了解不如作家对这个城市的了解清楚时，她才肯相信这个作家。(A)和(D)都过于绝对化，都错误在anynovel上，在逻辑论证中，绝对化的选项往往都是不正确的；(B)和(C)很显然都不能从上述短文中推出；既然Peter Lee的第二本以旧金山为背景的小说胜利地通过这个图书评论者的检验，那么这个图书评论者肯定认为她对旧金山的了解不会比Peter Lee对旧金山的了解更清楚，所以(E)为正确答案。注：flying colors胜利，大获全胜
