标题: Manhattan 5 CR 求解
题目来源于Manhattan CR 分册 P63：

Products with innovative and appealing designs relative to competing products
can often command substantially higher prices in the marketplace. Because
design innovations are quickly copied by other manufacturers, many consumer
technology companies charge as much as possible for their new designs
to extract as much value as possible from them. But large profits generated by
the innovative designs give competitors stronger incentives to copy the designs.
Therefore, the best strategy to maximize overall profit from an innovative
new design is to charge less than the greatest possible price.
In the argument above, the two portions in boldface play which of the following
roles?
(A) The first is an assumption that supports a described course of action; the
second provides a consideration to support a preferred course of action.
(B) The first is a consideration that helps explain the appeal of a certain strategy;
the second presents an alternative strategy endorsed by the argument.
(C) The first is a phenomenon that justifies a specific strategy; the second is that
strategy.
(D) The first is a consideration that demonstrates why a particular approach is
flawed; the second describes a way to amend that approach.
(E) The first is a factor used to rationalize a particular strategy; the second is a factor
against that strategy.

我原本错选了B，因为我觉得Bold A是用来支持首句Counterpoint的。换言之，感觉这段话的结构是：反面观点-支持反面观点-正面观点例子-正面结论，不能理解为什么第一个Bold是用来支持最终结论的。

其实我的困惑在于，对着答案反着想，似乎Bold A和结论也没有冲突，但是第一次看的时候就是会下意识觉得A是用来支持反面观点的（毕竟Bold A前面有一个Because，语义也是符合的），求如何解决这类问题？

这题似乎应该是B 不是 C

我觉得这题的结构是：
Bold A ->Conclusion1
Bold A + But... ->Conclusion2(Bold B)

所以A只是一个phenomenon或者说consideration吧，但是它并没有真正的justify,充其量就是help explain

这题同样也是GWD1-Q3. 答案是B。

A选项： Boldface 1 不是 assumption 而是事实;

谢啦~~醍醐灌顶~

A选项： Boldface 1 不是 assumption 而是事实;

我觉得 boldface1如果是fact的话，应该支持conclusion1和conclusion2
C选项 boldface1 不直接支持boldface2，需要加上新的条件才能支持conclusion2-boldface2
