标题: PREP问题求解 [打印本页] 作者: xuyuanwai 时间: 2012-11-4 15:59 标题: PREP问题求解 哪位大牛可以解释下面这道题吗？不怎么明白。 At present the Hollywood Restaurant has only standard-height tables.However, many customers come to watch the celebrities who frequent the Hollywood, and they would prefer tall tables with stools because such seating would afford a better view of the celebrities.Moreover, diners seated on stools typically do not stay as long as diners seated at standard-height tables.Therefore, if the Hollywood replaced some of its seating with high tables and stools, its profits would increase.
The argument is vulnerable to criticism on the grounds that it gives reason to believe that it is likely that
(A) some celebrities come to the Hollywood to be seen, and so might choose to sit at the tall tables if they were available
(B) the price of meals ordered by celebrities dining at the Hollywood compensates for the longer time, if any, they spend lingering over their meals
(C) a customer of the Hollywood who would choose to sit at a tall table would be an exception to the generalization about lingering
(D) a restaurant's customers who spend less time at their meals typically order less expensive meals than those who remain at their meals longer
(E) with enough tall tables to accommodate all the Hollywood's customers interested in such seating, there would be no view except of other tall tables 作者: Yingmillie 时间: 2012-11-4 17:04

答案是C啊作者: longxuw 时间: 2012-11-17 12:57
C说到Hollywood吃饭的人聊天的习惯跟大众聊天的习惯不一样。原文说人们一般在tall table上不会一直聊天，所以翻台率高，profit会上升。但这个选项否认了原文的说法。所以选C。
