GAMTprep逻辑求助

outsourcing is the practice of obtaining from an independent supplier a product or service that a company has provided previously for itself.V , a small manufacturing company that has in recent years experienced a decline in its profits.plans to boost its profits by outsourcing those parts of its business that independent suppliers can provide at lower cost than V.

问题忘了记下来,大概是以下哪一个能支持V company achieve its goal?

A.among the parts of its business that V dosen't plan to outsource are some that are too hard for suppliers to provide at lower cost than V.

E.attending to certain tasks that V. performs relatively inefficiently has taken up much of the time and effort of top managers whose time would have been better spent attending to V's core business.

答案为E 我选了A

E. managers 有更多时间处理企业核心事务与它的goal:boost profits 之间有什么关系呢?

选A是觉得 在公司内部生产成本高于外包的部分采用外包(原文),在公司自己做能比外包更节省成本的部分自己生产(A选项) 是最小化了成本 有助于提高利润

望大家指点~

再问一个问题:lift 这个单词在逻辑题中不时出现 一直以为是举起 提高(词典)的意思 结果两次碰到都是取消 减轻 一次题目忘了 是减税 还有一个是 a night sleep lifted their depression...

题目意思完全理解反了.

题目的意思是要支持这个外购的计划能达到公司的增加利润的目的，那么当然要说这个计划的优点了。

A的意思是那些公司不打算外购的业务都是一些供应商无法提供比公司本身的成本更低的业务，按你的理解是有助于提高利润，但是这个选项和这个外购计划的优点根本不相关啊。

E的意思是这个外购计划涉及的业务是那些公司相对无效完成的任务，这些任务占去了高级管理人员大部分时间和精力，使他们无法更好的参与V的核心业务。正确，没有效率的业务给外购，精力和时间来关注自己的主要业务，利润上升

关于这个lift， 你说的第一个大概就是下面这个意思吧？

to remove a rule or a law that says that something is not allowed

例句：The government plans to lift its ban on cigar imports.

但是那个(OG118)的missing a night sleep lifted their depression

根据字典的意思，lift要是及物动词应该是鼓舞精神，振奋的意思，那也应该是

lift somebody's spirits：to make someone feel more cheerful and hopeful

lift要是不及物动词，就是消散的意思

[intransitive] if feelings of sadness lift, they disappear

例句：Jan's depression seemed to be lifting at last.

所以为什么ETS要用lift their depression，我也很想不通啊。
