标题: OG11-34想不通,请教NN!

34.   A company’s two divisions performed with remarkable consistency over the past three years: in each of those years, the pharmaceuticals division has accounted for roughly 20 percent of dollar sales and 40 percent of profits, and the chemicals division for the balance.

Regarding the past three years, which of the following can properly be inferred from the statement above?

(A) Total dollar sales for each of the company’s divisions have remained roughly constant.

(B) The pharmaceuticals division has faced stiffer competition in its markets than has the chemicals division.

(C) The chemicals division has realized lower profits per dollar of sales than has the pharmaceuticals division.

(D) The product mix offered by each of the company’s divisions has remained unchanged.

(E) Highly profitable products accounted for a higher percentage of the chemicals division’s sales than of the pharmaceuticals division’s.

答案C,没问题。我的问题是E - 为什么OG说The passage does not distinguish between highly profitable products and other products?不是profit越高,越Profitable 吗?请NN指点,谢谢!

原文说的是两个部门make profit的问题,而不是两个部门产品盈利的问题。两个部门盈利能力的差别有可能是由于管理效率的差别导致的,不一定是由于产品的profitable导致的。
