A survey of entrepreneurs who started companies last year shows that while virtually all did substantial preparatory research and planning, only half used that work to produce a formal business plan. Since, on average, the entrepreneurs without formal plans secured the capital they needed in half the time of those with plans, these survey results indicate that, in general, formal plans did not help the entrepreneurs who produced them to secure the capital they needed.

A. Companies started by entrepreneurs who had used formal business plans to attract investment were on the whole as profitable in their first year as were companies started by entrepreneurs who had not produced such plans.

B. In surveys of entrepreneurs who have attempted without success to raise sufficient capital, more than half of the respondents indicate that they have produced a formal business plan.

C. Among the entrepreneurs surveyed, those who did not produce formal business plans sought and received a much larger proportion of their capital from investors with whom they had a long-standing business relationship.

D. The entrepreneurs surveyed who did not produce a formal business plan spent nearly as much time doing preparatory research and planning as the entrepreneurs who produced plans.

E. The entrepreneurs who produced business plans generally reported later that the process of writing the plan had increased their confidence that their company would succe

啊。。。貌似有点懂了哦。C是不是说enterpreneur在别人的帮助下才能保证他们的capital的安全~~所以plan还是需要的

那万一绝大多数企业都能得到投资者长期资助呢？这点题目没有说明啊

Cause:on average, the entrepreneurs without formal plans(NP) secured the capital they needed in half the time of those with plans(P),

Effect:in general, formal plans did not help the entrepreneurs who produced them to secure the capital they needed

也就是说，用“那些NP用了那些P找到他们所需资金所用的时间地一半的时间找到了自己所需的资金”这个事实推出了“作正式计划对于找到所需资金是没有帮助的”，就是说那些NP和P一样都找到了资金，而且NP还更快一些找到他们的资金。

C选项说NP是靠长期合作那个关系找到的资金。那么如没有这个关系，他们可能就找不到资金，而他们找不到资金的原因可能就是没有做正式的商业计划。也就是说正式的商业文书对找到资金可能是有帮助的。这个题结论的逻辑对立面是“正式计划对于找到资金可能有帮助”，所以该选项削弱了结论。

D选项中说NP和P用了一样的时间在preparatory research and planning上，意思是preparatory research and planning对于找到资金是有用的，而结论是在讲formal plans，因此该选项不正确。

B（作了正式文书但没拿到足够的钱，所以正式文书没有用）是加强。

A（两类企业家的公司第一年都获利）和C（做计划增强了对公司成功的信心）是无关选项。

Since, on average, the entrepreneurs without formal plans secured the capital they needed
in half the time
of those with plans, these survey results indicate that, in general, formal plans did not help the entrepreneurs who produced them to secure the capital they needed.

我认为half the time不应该理解为用了一半时间的意思，而应该理解为一半人数的意思。就是half the time of those with plans必须连作一体来理解。而且题目的第一句是讨论人数的比例关系，第二句话就突然跳到了讨论时间，这个未免也太离奇了

D. The entrepreneurs surveyed who did not produce a formal business plan spent nearly as much time doing preparatory research and planning as the entrepreneurs who produced plans.
