Mel: The official salary for judges has always been too low to attract the best candidates to the job. The legislature's move to raise the salary has done nothing to improve the situation, because it was coupled with a ban on receiving money for lectures and teaching engagements.
Pat: No, the raise in salary really does improve the situation. Since very few judges teach or give lectures, the ban will have little or no negative effect.
Pat's response to Mel is inadequate in that it
attempts to assess how a certain change will affect potential members of a group by providing evidence about its effect on the current members.
mistakenly takes the cause of a certain change to be an effect of that change.
attempts to argue that a certain change will have a positive effect merely by pointing to the absence of negative effects.
simply denies Mel's claim without putting forward any evidence in support of that denial .
assumes that changes that benefit the most able members of a group necessarily benefit all members of that group.
M:现在法官的薪水太低了吸引不了人们来当法官,而且法官还不能到外面做演讲和教课赚钱。
P:因为很少有法官去外面教课,做演讲,所以禁止他们外出演讲授课不会有不好的影响
A:providing evidence about its effect on the current members.就是指现在又很少的法出去授课演讲
B:把changes的原因当成了它的effects,错误,pal的言论是关于ban的,ban的原因根本没提到
C:说没有不好的影响就是有好的影响,错误,原文没有提到好的影响,只说了没有不好的影响
D:没有给出证据,错误,原文说了是观点+evidence
E:没有提到关于 the most able members,排除
