Paper&rint is a chain of British stores selling magazines, books, and stationery products. In
Which of the following, if true, most strongly argues that the plan, if put into effect, will not increase Paper&rint’s profits?
A: Recently magazine publishers, seeking to increase share in competitive sectors of the market, have been competitively cutting the retail prices of some of the largest circulation magazines.
B: In market research surveys, few consumers identify Paper&rint as a book or stationery store but many recognize and value the broad range of magazines it carries.
C: The publisher’s share of a magazine’s retail price is 50 percent, and the publisher also retains all of the magazine’s advertising revenue.
D: Consumers who subscribe to a magazine generally pay less per issue than they would if they bought the magazine through a retail outlet such as Paper&rint.
E: Some of Paper& Print’s locations are in small towns and represent the only retail outlet for books within the community.
答案是B,看上去很模糊,似乎是有削弱但是不准确啊。
题目的论点是 increase Paper&rint’s profits,B就算是能够削弱也应该也很多假设在里面的吧?
没有这些假设和常识是不能解出这个题目的,GWD的题目是不是都是这个味道啊(比如说GWD-21-Q30,GWD-28-Q17)。
如果是,那么是不是我的思路错了(过于limited了),需要重新调整?
怎么沉得这么快,自己来顶一下先。等人进来帮忙
继续等人来救我
Since Paper&rint’s margin on books and stationery products is much higher,但是如果买的人少的话还是不能increase its profits 啊,也就是说 few consumers identify Paper&rint as a book or stationery store but many recognize and value the broad range of magazines it carries.那么就算他放再多的books and stationery products没人买,profits也不会提高啊
不知道这么想对不对。。。
In the past, most
children who went sledding in the winter snow in Verland used wooden sleds with
runners and steering bars. Ten years ago, smooth plastic sleds became popular;
they go faster than wooden sleds but are harder to steer and slow. The concern
that plastic sleds are more dangerous is clearly borne out by the fact that the
number of children injured while sledding was much higher last winter than it
was ten years ago.
Which of the
following, if true in Verland, most seriously undermines the force of the
evidence cited?
A.
A few
children still use traditional wooden sleds.
B.
Very
few children wear any kind of protective gear, such as helmets, while sledding.
C.
Plastic
sleds can be used in a much wider variety of snow conditions than wooden sleds
can.
D.
Most
sledding injuries occur when a sled collides with a tree, a rock, or another
sled.
In the nation of Partoria, large trucks
currently account for 6 percent of miles driven on Partoria’s roads but are
involved in 12 percent of all highway fatalities. The very largest trucks –
those with three trailers – had less than a third of the accident rate of
single- and double-trailer trucks. Clearly, therefore, one way for Partoria to
reduce highway deaths would be to require shippers to increase their use of
triple-trailer trucks.
Which of the following, if true, most
seriously weakens the argument?
A: Partorian trucking companies have so far
used triple-trailer trucks on lightly traveled sections of major highways only.
B: No matter what changes Partoria makes in
the regulation of trucking, it will have to keep some smaller roads off-limits
to all large trucks.
C: Very few fatal collisions involving
trucks in Partoria are collisions between two trucks.
D: In Partoria, the safety record of the
trucking industry as a whole has improved slightly over the past ten years.
E: In Partoria, the maximum legal payload
of a triple-trailer truck is less than three times the maximum legal payload of
the largest of the single-trailer trucks
