怎么推出来的?

该题为OG10里的第89题。把OG的解释贴一下给你参考一下。OG10-89.

The threat envisioned by the author to the economic survival of workers displaced by automation will be serious only if they cannot find new jobs. Choice A, the best answer, says that there are already many such workers unable to find new jobs, and so strengthens the author’s argument.

Since the causes for declining profits for corporations that fail to automate are not analyzed in the passage, B is inappropriate. By saying that costs associated with unemployment C weakens the argument. Since the author tacitly grants that, initially, automation will cut costs, the detail given in D provides us added support. Choice E is inappropriate because it concerns short-term rather than long-term results of automation.

    个人分析如下：

Premise 1:

      The unemployed need the assistance of government to survive

Premise 2: 当成附加前提也可，也可理解为题中给出的信息。

    
                Automated equipment replaced employee, and employee lost their jobs

Conclusion:

      Company will pay the assistance through increased taxes and unemployment insurance payments( Government receive the money and redistribute it through public finance policy )

  解题:Premise + 正确答案----> Conclusion

   A可起到支持作用, 为正确答案.  不好意思,编辑不好,凑合看看.
