80. Advertisement: Clark brand-name parts are made for cars manufactured in this country. They satisfy all of our government automotive tests-the toughest such tests in the world. With foreign-made parts, you never know which might be reliable and which are cheap look-alikes that are poorly constructed and liable to cost you hundreds of dollars in repairs. Therefore, be smart and insist on brand-name parts by Clark for your car.

The argument requires the assumption that

(A) Clark parts are available only in this country

(B) foreign-made arts are not suitable for cars manufactured in this country

(C) no foreign-made parts satisfy our government standards

(D) parts that satisfy or government standards are not as poorly constructed as cheap foreign made parts

(E) if parts are made for cars manufactured in our country, they are not poorly constructed

ANSWER  IS D, but I think C is better.

我第一次做这个题的时候叶选了C,后来觉得D更加贴近题目。

如果文章中没有'With foreign-made parts, you never know which might be reliable and which are cheap look-alikes that are poorly constructed and liable to cost you hundreds of dollars in repairs.',我觉得选C是没有什么问题的。

但是加上这就话后，我觉得文中强调的是Clark parts和foreign-made parts之间的对比，与government standards没有太大的关系。

Clark brand parts satisfied the test

foreign parts might be cheap look alikes that are poorly constructed and.....

不买FOREIGN的原因是POORLY CONSTUCTED, 而clark通过了TEST, 那么只要TEST证明它不是POORLY CONTRUCTED, 就可以得出结论. 二者需要中间有联系
