标题: 求助一句话的意思~~~!谢谢~~~
一道prep的逻辑题里的一个选项的意思:
Transnational cooperation among corporations is experiencing a modest renaissance among United States firms, even though projects undertaken by two or more corporations under a collaborative agreement are less profitable than projects undertaken by a single corporation.  The advantage of transnational cooperation is that such joint international projects may allow United States firms to win foreign contracts that they would not otherwise be able to win.

Which of the following is information provided by the passage?

(A) Transnational cooperation involves projects too big for a single corporation to handle.
(B) Transnational cooperation results in a pooling of resources leading to high-quality performance.
(C) Transnational cooperation has in the past been both more common and less common than it is now among United States firms.
(D) Joint projects between United States and foreign corporations are not profitable enough to be worth undertaking.
(E) Joint projects between United States and foreign corporations benefit only those who commission the projects.
答案是C,没怎么搞明白,我觉得是我对C的理解有问题,跨国公司在过去比现在更加普遍或者没那么普遍?为什么呀……茫然中- -

同问~~

我想这是不是和modest renaissance有关系, 就是曾经这个很火,后来风头又压下去了,现在又比较火了~~ 于是。。。。

想问D项错是因为什么呢?

回ls,D的总结有两点不太对,1. not profitable enough题目里没有,2.而且如果not profitable enough to be worth undertaking,都不值得去undertake了,不会火的。有点儿自相矛盾。

谢ls,确实我看了也觉得是Modest的缘故,哎,逻辑有时就是败在一个词上的~~~

modest这个词我觉得总体是偏贬义的,虽然有谦逊的意思.
记得在有一个文章里还根据上下文被翻成了寒酸的

应该是renaissance吧,意思是复活,既然有复活肯定有过辉煌的时候也有过落寞的时候,而且是moderate renaissance,说明现在没有到最辉煌的时候~

感觉这句话就是解释复兴这个词的,以前既有common的时候,也有less common的时候,现在又common了,才叫复兴吧
不会这个词“renaissance”貌似这题就完了

是啊,感觉整个儿这道题就是在解释这一两个词~~~有时这种题如果找不到key word,考试的时候就愁死了- -

感觉这样单纯解释一个词儿的题还是比较少的,楼主别太担心~
