标题: OG passage19 一句话不理解

04-04/19

In legal and health care

(20) services, it may mislead clients by suggesting that law-

suits or medical procedures will have guaranteed out-

comes

不懂这句话的意思，连带后面那道题我也错了……

professional service firms with outstandin

reputations and performance to match have little to gain

from offering unconditional guarantees.

提取主谓宾是

Firms (with reputation and performance to match) have little to gain

括号部分怎么翻译？To mach是什么意思？

it may mislead clients by suggesting that law-

suits or medical procedures will have guaranteed out-comes

这会使客户误以为他们的诉讼或手术万无一失

(实际确并不是这样)

后一个:

那些专业的公司--拥有好的声誉和良好表现--并不需要通过提供无条件保证来得到什么优势.

拙见,希望对你有用

116. The passage’s description of the issue raised by

unconditional guarantees for health care or legal

services most clearly implies that which of the following

is true?

(A) The legal and medical professions have standards of

practice that would be violated by attempts to fulfill

such unconditional guarantees.

(B) The result of a lawsuit of medical procedure cannot

necessarily be determined in advance by the

professionals handling a client’s case.

undermined by any attempts at marketing of

professional services, including unconditional

guarantees.

(D) Clients whose lawsuits or medical procedures have

unsatisfactory outcomes cannot be adequately

compensated by financial settlements alone.

(E) Predicting the monetary cost of legal or health care

services is more difficult than predicting the

monetary cost of other types of professional

services.

關於這題我選C

因為

With its implication that fail-

(15) ure is possible, the guarantee may, paradoxically, cause

clients to doubt the service firm’s ability to deliver the

promised level of service.

因為"無條件報保護政策"會讓委託者去doubt....

我覺得有undermine the dinity的作用

C是錯在by any attempt at marketing上嗎??

The best answer is B. The passage states that a guarantee “may mislead clients by suggesting that lawsuits or medical procedures will have guaranteed outcomes” (lines 20-22). This implies that legal and medical outcomes cannot be predicted with absolute certainty. Although the statements in A, C, D, and E could be true, none of these statements is implied by the description in lines 20-22 of the passage.

我觉得还是需要紧扣原文的意思。C选项可能是非常可能的推测，但不如B选项那样贴近原文。

116题中C选项可能是services不成功导致的后果之一，但不是description of the issue暗含的东西。

个人觉得这个imply是找作者的一个assumption.

我想问的是这篇文章的第117题

With its implication that fail-

(15) ure is possible, the guarantee may, paradoxically , cause

clients to doubt the service firm’s ability to deliver the

promised level of service.

117. Which of the following hypothetical situations best exemplifies the potential problem noted in the second sentence of the second paragraph (lines 14-17)?

(A)
A physician’s unconditional guarantee of satisfaction encourages patients to sue for malpractice if they are unhappy with the treatment they receive.

(B)
A lawyer’s unconditional guarantee of satisfaction makes clients suspect that the lawyer needs to find new clients quickly to increase the firm’s income.

(C)
A business consultant’s unconditional guarantee of satisfaction is undermined when the consultant fails to provide all of the services that are promised.

(D)
An architect’s unconditional guarantee of satisfaction makes clients wonder how often the architect’s buildings fail to please clients.

(E)
An accountant’s unconditional guarantee of satisfaction leads clients to believe that tax returns prepared by the accountant are certain to be accurate.

想不通怎么会是D， B为什么不对？望指点

顶，也想问117.

解答117题：

the guarantee may, paradoxically , cause

clients to doubt the service firm’s ability to deliver the

promised level of service. 这句话就是定位点。clients 只是怀疑公司完成服务的质量，正如D中所说的，clients wonder how often the architect’s buildings fail to please clients.(是否公司经常不能满足客户的要求）。而B中说 clients suspect that the lawyer needs to find new clients quickly to increase the firm’s income.没有说到服务质量问题，希望有更多客户来提高公司收入的公司也可能其服务质量也很好呀。。。关键是定位！

按照OG的解释，B是对begging for business进行举例，所以错。

的难点是定位，耗时的也是定位....

作者: 双鱼游 时间: 2010-9-12 09:43
这道题我也先开始也做错了，后来才幡然醒悟，一定要注意题干，题干定位的是第二句，而不是其他句， B 说的是lines 18-19 of passage: guarantees may suggest that a firm is“begging for business.”不是第二句的意思，所以不选，再看C选项(C) A business consultant’s unconditional guarantee of satisfaction is undermined when the
consultant fails to provide all of the services that are promised.这个说的是如果service没有达到承诺的，这已经说明a guaranteed service 不令人满意，而原文第二句说的是对公司的a guaranteed service还抱有怀疑，这也是OG的解释中Similarly, in C, a guaranteed service has actually been judged unsatisfactory.因此也不能体现第二句的内容，还是要多看OG 啊
