  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 turn in industry.

  Which of the following assumptions is most likely ti have been made bu the author of the argument above?

  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.

  最佳解析:

  本题对于大多数考生而言,难点在于找不出准确的因果关系。其实本题开始的“the best argument”已做出提示,即本题因果关系为:“因为大学中的终身职位制度,所以老资格的成员愿意雇用比他们聪明的新成员。”而本题的后五行与推理毫无关系。那么假设为“无此因就无此果”,即“假如没有tenure system的存在,老资格成员就不愿雇用可能威胁其工作的新成员”。正是(B)中所讲述的内容,所以(B)is correct。(A)本题中并没有说明工业应当怎么样,所以不对。(C)涉及与本文无关的概念诸如unconventional, unpopular等。(D)同理与上文无关。(E)涉及up-to-date这个无关概念,所以都不可能作为上面推理的假设。

  答案:B
