大全-Ⅰ-1

A mail order company recently had a big jump in clothing sales after hiring a copywriter and a graphic artist to give its clothing catalog a magazinelike format designed to appeal to a more upscale clientele. The company is now planning to launch a housewares catalog using the same concept.

The company’s plan assumes that

(A) other housewares catalogs with magazinelike formats do not already exist

(B) an upscale clientele would be interested in a housewares catalog

(C) the same copywriter and graphic artist could be employed for both the clothing and housewares catalogs

(D) a magazinelike format requires a copywriter and a graphic artist

(E) customers to whom the old clothing catalog appealed would continue to make purchases from catalogs with the new format

为什么答案是D?

我觉得它的前提是

在雇佣了一个copywriter和一个graphic artist后，设计了这样的一个CATALOG，才导致appeal to the upscale clientele.

所以给HOUSEWARE设计这个CATALOG，那么受欢迎的前提就是要有一个COPYWRITER和一个GRAPHIC ARTIST设计这个FORMAT，才可能使UPSCALE CLIENTEL喜欢。是顺着前提给的逻辑思维来走的。

(A) other housewares catalogs with magazinelike formats do not already exist--其他的杂志和他这个计划成功与否无关。

(B) an upscale clientele would be interested in a housewares catalog--这个只是把结论重复了一遍，无意义。

(C) the same copywriter and graphic artist could be employed for both the clothing and housewares catalogs--无关，无论他们被聘用多少家都跟这个HOUSEWARE CATALOG的册子的推出成功与否无关。

(D) a magazinelike format requires a copywriter and a graphic artist--就是文中给的前提的推理过程。。。注意after....then appeal to....

(E) customers to whom the old clothing catalog appealed would continue to make purchases from catalogs with the new format--无关

恩，明白了，谢谢ls!!
