Which of the following best completes the passage below?
Sales campaigns aimed at the faltering personal computer market have strongly emphasized ease of use, called user-friendliness. This emphasis is oddly premature and irrelevant in the eyes of most potential buyers, who are trying to address the logically prior issue of whether----
(A) user-friendliness also implies that owners can service their own computers (B) personal computers cost more the more user-friendly they are (C) currently available models are user-friendly enough to suit them (D) the people promoting personal computers use them in their own homes (E) they have enough sensible uses for a personal computer to justify the expense of buying one
sometimes you should know what is required condition and what is sufficient condition.. for example, when the passage talk about "only if, assumption, unless..."
but in this passage, "prior" means a comparision..therefore,you don't need to think about what is required condition and what is sufficient condition...
in this passage, you should finish the passage by providing a reason why sales person should not emphasize on the the user-friendly characteristic of computers..
b is wrong because without addition information we can't clearly explain the reason why sales persons should not emphasize on the user-friendly characteristic..for example, if people care more about user-friendly than money, we can't use B as an reason to explain the argument...
e tells us that comsumers concen more about whether the cost of user-friendly computes worth the expense, and therefore give an explanation to the conclusion the arguer makes..
