拿GWD1-Q35做例子

In corporate purchasing, competitive scrutiny is typically limited to suppliers of items that are directly related to end products. With “indirect” purchases (such as computers, advertising, and legal services), which are not directly related to production, corporations often favor “supplier partnerships” (arrangements in which the purchaser forgoes the right to pursue alternative suppliers), which can inappropriately shelter suppliers from rigorous competitive scrutiny that might afford the purchaser economic leverage.  There are two independent variables—availability of alternatives and ease of changing suppliers—that companies should use to evaluate the feasibility of subjecting suppliers of indirect purchases to competitive scrutiny. This can create four possible situations.

      In Type 1 situations, there are many alternatives and change is relatively easy.  Open pursuit of alternatives—by frequent competitive bidding, if possible—will likely yield the best results.  In Type 2 situations, where there are many alternatives but change is difficult—as for providers of employee health-care benefits—it is important to continuously test the market and use the results to secure concessions from existing suppliers.  Alternatives provide a credible threat to suppliers, even if the ability to switch is constrained. In Type 3 situations, there are few alternatives, but the ability to switch without difficulty creates a threat that companies can use to negotiate concessions from existing suppliers. In Type 4 situations, where there are few alternatives and change is difficult, partnerships may be unavoidable.

其实这篇文章一点都不难，文章结构也很明显，第一段提到了supplier和purchaser的关系引出一个理论，两个维度，四种情况，第二段详细讲四种情况

问题是问第二段对第一段的关系

我觉得文章我已经比较能理解了，但是看到选项时候就没头绪了，situation，scope，strategy我模模糊糊就觉得都对，不知道该选哪个

做其他的主题题时也有同样的问题，能看明白但是对examine, depute, cite等等词印象很模糊，总说主题题不能错，大家有什么经验分享一下？
