In January of last year the Moviemania chain of movie theaters started propping its popcorn in canola oil, instead of the less healthful coconut (n.椰子)oil that it had been using until then. Now Moviemania is planning to switch back, saying that the change has hurt popcorn sales. That claim is false, however, since according to Moviemania’s own sales figures, Moviemania sold 5 percent more popcorn last year than in the previous year.
Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the argument against Moviemania’s claim?
Total sales of all refreshments at Moviemania’s movie theaters increased by less than 5
答案是A
这题我花了三分钟 请问A为何支持呢
是不是排除了一种可能性 即小吃销售的增长 导致爆米花的增长
谢谢
同意ROBERTCHU。A实际上是用比较的方式说明用canola oil爆爆米花能使popcorn的销量增加。因为自从用canola oil爆爆米花后,popcorn的销量增加比其它点心销量增加快。也可以说是用比较的方式排除其它原因使popcorn的销量增加,增加就是用canola oil的原因使popcorn的销量增加的可能性
谢谢robert/ lawyer
我的理解是
排除了一种可能性 即小吃销售的增长 导致爆米花的增长
对不对
谢谢
谢谢lawyer 我想我理解对了
谢谢
在GWD的逻辑中 发现了多个层次的论证 经常是X支持Y Z反对X X又辩护 等等
就如这题
我感觉读完题目没法判断要求的是什么
请问大家在做题中有没有这样的问题 是如何解决的
谢谢
如果WEAKEN的话,应选D。人数增加20%,而销量才增加5%,说明这种爆米花还不如原来的爆米花有销量。C不起WEAKEN作用,不管人们喜不喜欢,销量是增加的,这是事实,不容否定,销售商要的也是销量,人们喜不喜无关,只要销量上去就行。
没想过,如果 weaken 的话,我肯定把 这D 当成无关的了。会选c
LAWER 高手 。
Answer: A
A eliminates other possibilities to explain the increase in pop.
Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports
the argument against Moviemania’s claim?
这类题理解支持有的时候在解题时特困难,support the argument against, 理解为weaken,这道题就容易选多了
refreshments 增加少于5%, 整体等于5%, 说明新鲜的增加大于5%,weaken了" oil change has hurt popcorn sales"。
好几次碰到这种类型的题了,这样想会容易些。同意不,请指教!!
