Because technological advances tend to be quickly surpassed and companies who want to make large profits while they still can, many companies charge the greatest price the market will bear when they have such a product. But large profits on the mew product will give competitors a strong incentive to quickly match the mew product’s capabilities. Consequently, the strategy to maximize overall profit from a new product is to charge less than the greatest possible price. In the argument above, the two portions in boldface play which of the following roles?
A. The first is an assumption that forms the basis for a course of action that the argument criticizes; the second presents the course of action endorsed by the argument. B. The first is a consideration raised to explain the appeal of a certain strategy; the second is a consideration raised to call into question the wisdom of adopting that strategy. C. The first is an assumption that has been used to justify a certain strategy; the second is a consideration that is used to cast doubt on that assumption. D. The first is a consideration raised in support of a strategy the argument endorses; the second presents grounds in support of that consideration. E. The first is a consideration raised to show that adopting a certain strategy is unlikely to achieve the intended effect; the second is presented to explain the appeal of that strategy.

An assumption is NEVER stated in a passage. It is an UNSTATED premise.作者: 蜗涡Joey 时间: 2011-11-11 00:58
可不可以这样想~assumption假设，consideration是前提，第一句前面是由because引出的，怎么看都比较像前提吖~~~作者: 宋筱萱 时间: 2011-11-11 10:18
哦 是说assumption是一段文字默认的前提条件了 而 consideration 是文字里写出来了考虑的一个方面是吗 谢谢大家啦O(∩_∩)O~
