Obviously consumers find our meals desirable. Accountant: If you look at individual restaurants, however, you find that the number of meals sold actually decreased substantially at every one of our restaurants that was in operation both last year and the year before. The desirability of our meals to consumers has clearly decreased, given that this group of restaurants---the only ones for which we have sales figures that permit a comparison between last year and the year before---demonstrates a trend toward fewer sales.
5. If the sales figures cited by the accountant and the sales manager are both accurate, which one of the following must be true? (A) The company opened at least one new restaurant in the last two years. (B) The company’s meals are less competitive than they once were. (C) The quality of the company’s meals has not improved over the last two years. (D) The prices of the company’s meals have changed over the past two years. (E) The market share captured by the company’s restaurants fell last year.作者: darlingchum 时间: 2011-10-23 21:35
是A么? 这是个paradox的题目 先找出矛盾 manager说 last year the total number of meals sold in our company restaurants was much higher than the year before accountant说的是individual restaurant的meals 其实是跌的~论据是the ones for which we have sales figures 要解决这个矛盾 其实就是找一个答案既能support manager的又能support accountant的 A选项 有店的量的增加 导致了 总量的增加 而单店的销售额可能是下降的
