90、Keith:Compliance with new government regulations requiring the installation of smoke alarms and sprinkler systems in all theaters and arenas will xost the entertainment industry $25 billion annually. Consequently, jobs will be lost and profits diminished. Therefore, these regulations eill harm the country's economy.
Laura:The $25 billion spent by some business will be revenue for others. Jobs and profits will be gained as welll as lost.
Laura responds to Keith by ___
(C) suggesting that Kwith's argument overlooks a mitigating consequence.
(E) agreeing with the main conclusion of Keith's argument but construing that conclusion as grounds for optimism rather than pessimism.
答案:C
我同意C做答案。但是,E选项中有一个main conclusion的提法,我想请教一下,是不是指"Consequently,.......Therefore,.........."引导了两个conclusion,其中一个是main,一个是subsidiary的?如果我的理解没错的话,那么哪个是主哪个是次呢?有没有什么规律或标志可循?
Consequently, jobs will be lost and profits diminished. Therefore, these regulations eill harm the country's economy.
我觉得这些观点可以看成是conclusion,main conclusion 就是harm the country's economy
所以不可能是grounds for optimism
个人意见
怎么也瞅着答案E更顺眼。
NN给解释一下E 为什么不对?

注意逻辑的演进顺序:cost 25 billion -> job will be lost and profits disminished -> harm the country's economy
cost 25 billion是论据,先推出一个中间结论,然后再由中间结论推出main conclusion (harm the country's economy, 逻辑线的最后是最终作者要下的结论)
E中说Laura agreeing with the main conclusion, 肯定错,因为Laura的意思本来就是说经济是个整体,这边损失点那边肯定赚点,不会harm the country's economy的
