第1题:
2. Which of the following is implied in the first paragraph?
[A] People used to be forced to work under whips.
[B] The author dislikes the function of politics in economy.
[C] Incentives are always less available than regulations.
[D] People have an instinct of working less and getting more.
本题考查推理引申。第一段第二句提到,要找到一种新的经济激励手段来取代传统的饥饿处罚。该段第三句分析了饥饿处罚不再起作用的社会原因,即,这个新社会将经济与政治混为一谈,否认经济秩序的自治权。因此作者对于政治对经济的干预是反感的,[B]在第一段中有所暗示。这种暗示在第二段第一句中“我承认对于社会某个部门可能拥有劳动力管理的最终权力感到恐惧”得到了证实。[A]是根据文中出现的whip(鞭)一词编造出来的选项。其实,whip在本文中是比喻用法,指的是“激励、鞭策手段”。文中只提到incentives,但未将它与regulations作比较,[C]错误。[D]在文中未涉及。
