Personnel officer:  The exorbitant cost of our health-insurance benefits reflects the high dollar amount of medical expenses incurred by our employees.  Employees who are out of shape, as a group, have higher doctor bills and longer hospital stays than do their colleagues who are fit.  Therefore, since we must reduce our health-insurance costs, we should offer a rigorous fitness program of jogging and weight lifting to all employees, and require employees who are out of shape to participate.

The conclusion reached by the personnel officer depends on which of the following assumptions

The conclusion reached by the personnel officer depends on which of the following assumptions

  1. A person who is fit would receive a routine physical checkup by a doctor less regularly than would a person who is out of shape.
            
  2. The medical expenses incurred by employees who are required to participate in the fitness program would be less than those incurred by employees who are not required to participate.
            
  3. The strenuous activities required of out-of-shape employees by the program would not by themselves generate medical expenses greater than any reduction achieved by the program.
            
  4. The fitness program would serve more employees who are out of shape than it would employees who are fit.
            
  5. The employees who participate in the fitness program would be away from work because of illness less than would the employees who do not participate.

答案是C

我是通过排除其他选出的,因为我读不懂C,麻烦simon过来或者其他好心的同学帮我翻译,我实在不明白by the program not by themselves是想说明什么意思……

题目:

人力资源官员:医保赔偿金高得离谱,这说明我们员工的医疗支出也很高。总体来讲,体型超标的员工比身材匀称的员工医疗支出更高,住院时间更长。因此,为了降低医保支出,我们必须向所有员工推出一个要求严格锻炼的活动,内容包括慢跑和举重,并要求体型超标的员工参加。

C:本活动要求体型超标的员工进行高强度的运动,这些高强度的运动本身造成的医疗支出不会比该活动可以减少的医疗支出多。

The strenuous activities)( required of out-of-shape employees by the program would not by themselves generate medical expenses greater than any reduction achieved by the program.

就是这个活动要胖子剧烈运动,这可能折腾地他们要命,胖子可能跑步一半心脏病发作了,就会造成额外的医疗支出。只有因为运动造成的医疗支出不大于这项目能减少的支出,这项目才有用。

By themselvesthemselves是指的activities

还是不明白,

The strenuous activities)( required of out-of-shape employees by the program would not by themselves generate medical expenses greater than any reduction achieved by the program.

第一个by the program是required by the program,这个没有问题,关键是by themselves是generate by themselves么?这个究竟是什么语法结构呢?(真不好意思,不搞明白语法影响我阅读……)可以把by oneself 这样的结构随便放在句中的位置是么?那就是一个状语?

缩一下句就是:

The activities would not (by themselves) generate …. 这些活动本身不会造成….

 

应该很清楚啊?

答案是C

这个题目我把大意简单化:身体不好,医疗费用大。为此建议对身体不好的实施锻炼计划。

C的意思是说,这个计划本身并不能直接减低支出,而是要靠身体不好的人通过严格执行这个计划锻炼好身体后才能减少医疗费用。

不知道这样理解如何,有错的话请指正。
