GRE官方题库原题8
Twenty years ago, Dr. Field, a noted anthropologist, visited the island of Tertia. Using an observation-centered approach to studying Tertian culture, he concluded from his observations that children in Tertia were reared by an entire village rather than by their own biological parents. Recently another anthropologist, Dr. Karp, visited the group of islands that includes Tertia and used the interview-centered method to study child-rearing practices. In the interviews that Dr. Karp conducted with children living in this group of islands, the children spent much more time talking about their biological parents than about other adults in the village. Dr. Karp decided that Dr. Field's conclusion about Tertian village culture must be invalid. Some anthropologists recommend that to obtain accurate information on Tertian child-rearing practices, future research on the subject should be conducted via the interview-centered method.
Write a response in which you discuss what questions would need to be answered in order to decide whether the recommendation and the argument on which it is based are reasonable. Be sure to explain how the answers to these questions would help to evaluate the recommendation.
题目翻译
20年前著名人类学家Field博士访问了Tertia岛,并从他的观察得出结论:Tertia的儿童是由整个村庄的人抚养长大的而不是由他们的双亲。然而,我最近对包含Tertia的一组岛屿上生活的儿童的采访显示,这些儿童的谈话中谈到他们双亲的时间要远多于谈到村庄中其他成年人的时间。这个研究证实了Field博士关于Tertia村庄文化的结论是错误的,因而这种以观察为中心的研究文化的方法是无效的。由于我在Tertia工作的研究生们所用的是以采访为中心的方式,他们将对那里以及其他岛屿文化的儿童抚养传统建立精确的多的了解。
题目分析
1. 作者没有提供足够的证据说明Tertia的结论是错误的。
2. 作者也没有提供足够的信息说明以观察为主的方法是错误的。
3. 其他因素:没有提供详细的比较观察为主和访问为主的两种方法之间的异同,不能说明他的结论更精确。
参考提纲
1. 采访的有效性。是否正确的表达了他们的意思。采访包括了其他岛上的文化,不能平均而论。其他岛是由父母抚养。
2. 谈论父母多不说明由他们的父母抚养。虽然由全村人共同抚养,但是对自己的父母更感兴趣是很正常的。
3. 即使D博士结论错误,这不说明关于整个文化的结论都错了,抚养孩子只是一部分。即使结论错误,不能说明方法错了,可能是方法运用错误。根据作者的逻辑,如果利用数学解决问题错了,数学这种方法就错了。
4. 作者的方式的正确性没有证明。
