标题: 请教OG-199
199.
Vitacorp, a manufacturer, wishes to make its information booth at an industry convention more
productive in terms of boosting sales. The booth offers information introducing the company’s
new products and services. To achieve the desired result, Vitacorp’s marketing department will
attempt to attract more people to the both. The marketing director’s first measure was to
instruct each salesperson to call his or her five best customers and personally invite them to
visit the booth.
Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the prediction that the marketing
director’s first measure will contribute to meeting the goals of boosting sales?
(A) Vitacorp’s salespeople routinely inform each important customer about new products and
services as soon as the decision to launch them has been made.
(B) Many of Vitacorp’s competitors have made plans for making their won information booths
more productive in increasing sales.
(C) An information booth that is well attended tends to attract visitors who would not otherwise
have attended the booth.
(D) Most of Vitacorp’s best customers also have business dealings with Vitacorp’s
competitors.
(E) Vitacorp has fewer new products and services available this year than it had in previous
years.
这道题目稀里糊涂作对了，但重新拿出来看还是没有很明白，帮忙指教！

C is correct answer.
Changing the c to the following should be helpful for understanding:
An information booth that is well attended tends to attract visitors who would not have attended the booth without the information booth.
That means the booth did a good job to attract nomal public no matter who is big cusmoter or just a visting customer.
中文意思我想是：在日常工作做到位的情况下，才谈得到对特殊用户群的促销活动。
B,D,E are weaken.
A has contrary meaning with C
Hope that is helpful.
If I am wrong, let me know.

不好意思，还是不太明白。
不清楚：为什么
An information booth that is well attended tends to attract visitors who would not have attended the booth without the information booth.=That means the booth did a good job to attract nomal public no matter who is big cusmoter or just a visting customer.

我是在按照我的理解将其翻译。如果直译的话
信息采集部门在吸引客户来参观这方面做的很好，没有他们的工作，这些客户将不会来参观。
不知这样是否好点。
欢迎继续讨论。

我的理解是：前提director’s first measure was to instruct each salesperson to call his or her five best customers and personally invite them to visit the booth.>结论the marketing director’s first measure will contribute to meeting the goals of boosting sales
C答案An information booth that is well attended tends to attract visitors who would not otherwise have attended the booth. 说的是一个好的信息展销会可以吸引原本不会去的人，看似一个与measure无关的论断。
谢谢fyhllj的回复，并请继续指教！

此题似乎无套路可言，我也只能根据我的理解判断。请其他高手解释一下吧。

C选项
An information booth that is well attended tends to attract visitors who would not otherwise have attended the booth.
逻辑关系为 看到很多人参加booth => 很多原来不打算参加的人会被吸引过来 => 增加收入
原题提供一项条件：invite best customers => 显得有很多人参加booth
进入上述的逻辑关系
作者: cooperqi 时间: 2003-9-16 14:29
C相当于提供了一个桥梁
作者: saic_zzh 时间: 2003-9-16 18:08
我感觉没有那么复杂啊
因为要达到人多的目的嘛，所以先是要求把销售员最好的五个客户带过来，因为是要加强，所以用很简单的一个逻辑，因为有人在看热闹，那么就会吸引更多的人过来看热闹。如果是加强，那么很简单咯，这部分后来跑出来的人如果不是因为前面的若干看客他们是不会出来的。
最后结果是MANAGER的策略很成功啊，呵呵，拍手
其他几个选项和文章的问题好象都没有什么关系啊

以下是引用(C) An information booth that is well attended tends to attract visitors who would not otherwise have attended the booth.]
如果一个信息亭子有很多人去的话，那么他就会吸引很多原来不会来的游客。也就是人气越旺越好做买卖。
作者: Andrea625 时间: 2004-6-15 16:13
（C）一个做的很好的booth会吸引很多原本不会来看的访问者。
也就是说，做好这个booth很有用，也就是接着说...也好啦。

我觉得这道题的干扰在于两个“ first measure ”，因为我对这种极端词first比较敏感，所以我选了a。如果问题不是问 first measure ，而是问booth本身，那答案c就舒服多了。
。。。The marketing director’s first measure was to instruct each salesperson to call his or her five best customers and personally invite them to visit the booth.
Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the prediction that the marketing director’s first measure will contribute to meeting the goals of boosting sales?
作者: vipguest 时间: 2005-1-28 16:14
我选了D，但是没理解为什么不对。我的理解是这样的：
C吸引来的vistitor必须是目标消费者才会有用啊；如果没有潜在消费者，人多也不会带动销售。
D中的客户才是潜在消费者啊，因为他们也和公司对手做生意，所以有机会把订单从对手手中夺来，推动销售。达到老板的目的。请指教。
作者: 我爱欧洲 时间: 2005-5-24 12:50
结合上两楼的问题，题干中最终目的是增加销量more productive in terms of boosting sales,因此销售经理提出的初步方案first measure 是invite them to visit the booth.提问的是supports the prediction，后面的that从句不过是修饰prediction的，也就是support会吸引更多人来这个结论的。
选D应该是加入了自己的设想，况且“有机会把订单从对手手中夺来，推动销售”也只是可能，不能SUPPORT。
个人理解。

let me try:
总思路: 若A->B,B'->C 如果再能提供B=B',则A->C 就成立了
详述如下:
A=First measure
B=instruct each salesperson to call his or her five best customers and personally invite them to visit the booth
B'=Attract more people
C=Sales boosting
要求证: A->C 成立 (即题目要求的加强:first measure will contribute to meeting the goals of boosting sales)
文中告知:
1.A->B
即:first measure was to instruct each salesperson to call his or her five best customers and personally invite them to
visit the booth
2.B'->C
即:To achieve the desired result, Vitacorp’s marketing department will attempt to attract more people to the both
而文中的(c)选项说的就是 B=B'
即:An information booth that is well attended tends to attract visitors who would not otherwise have attended the booth
其中:An information booth that is well attended 就是"instruct each salesperson to call his or her five best customers and personally invite them to visit the booth"的同义转化表达,即是B.
而:attract visitors who would not otherwise have attended the booth就是"Attract more people"的同义转化表达,即是B'.
仅供参考

Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the prediction that the marketing

我们好好的看看问的什么：
第一，support，支持题；
第二，first measure，选项一定要联系first measure=[instruct each salesperson to call his or her five best customers and personally invite them to
visit the booth]；
第三，the goals of boosting sales，什么是goals呢？就是in terms of boosting sales；怎样算是boosting sales呢？首先就是有更多的visitors
first measure里讲到five best customers，这就对应了C选项中的[is well attended] ；而C讲，因first measure而well attended的booth就吸引了more visitors，达到了goals，这就是support
这道题目迷惑我的在 best 上，我开始总觉得这里有什么问题。
(A) Vitacorp’s salespeople routinely inform each important customer about new products and
services as soon as the decision to launch them has been made.
(B) Many of Vitacorp’s competitors have made plans for making their won information booths
more productive in increasing sales.
(C) An information booth that is well attended tends to attract visitors who would not otherwise
have attended the booth.
(D) Most of Vitacorp’s best customers also have business dealings with Vitacorp’s
competitors.
(E) Vitacorp has fewer new products and services available this year than it had in previous
years.

那個otherwise...放在中間
該如何翻意阿???

吸引那些参观者，否则他们是不会来的。
作者: snowjing 时间: 2005-7-28 08:15
对答案C没有问题，就是看到A的时候停留了一下，不是很明白ETS对于A项的解释：
According to choice A, the customers who will be especially invited to attend the booth will not as a result be any better informed about Vitacorp's products, so it gives no reason for thinking that sales to these customers will be stimulated.
请大家帮忙解释一下。

请大家帮忙解释一下。
(A) Vitacorp’s salespeople routinely inform each important customer about new products and services as soon
as the decision to launch them has been made.
A的 意思：一旦做出新品投放市场的决定，该公司的销售人员就会常规性的（将相关信息）通告重要客户。
如果是这种情况，这些重要客户在销售亭之前就已经知道了产品的相关信息，在设置销售亭再特别的通知一下这类客户，所起的作用就不会很大。
作者: swlfx 时间: 2005-8-2 10:20
对于解释的理解：根据选项A，结果是，被特别通知来到销售亭现场的顾客将不会得到更多有关Vitacorp公司产品的信息，所以该选项没有为“将刺激这些客户的销售”提供什么支持。
在此，as a result 可以当作插入语分析。
希望有所帮助。
作者: fftwo 时间: 2006-7-6 22:00
我的理解,不知道对不对,请后人指教:
原题目中就有这么一句"To achieve the desired result, Vitacorp’s marketing department will attempt to attract more people to the both."就已经非常明确的表明销售部门的找客户来的目的就是为了扩大人气,以吸引更多的人来销售亭,至于其它(例如目标客户之类),只是我们自己的猜想与发挥,不是原文的意思.
同意saic_zzh在2003-9-16 18:08:00的发言.(见21楼)
呵呵.

我觉得C与其说是个support选项，还不如说是个assumption选项
试想，把C取非，如果一个很热闹的information booth(An information booth that is well attended)
不能吸引那些本来不会来参观的顾客(visitors who would not otherwise have attended
the booth，注意这里是虚拟语气)
那老板的策略就不能达到目的了
请大牛们指教！
作者: rorarora 时间: 2008-3-16 19:13
我看到这题的时候给那个boost sales给晃住了，总在想怎么才能boost sales呢? 于是就主观的猜想D可能是因为客户也是competitor的，产品都差不多，能从competitor那抢过来，就能促进销售了。
可是这道题告诉我，老外思维十分直线化，开booth目的就是让更多的visitor来，人多了，就有可能boost sales.
越看OG,越觉得逻辑本身不难，难在看到一段话，能跟老外想法一致......大家觉得呢？？
