A major impediment to wide acceptance of electric vehicles even on the part of people who use their cars almost exclusively for commuting is the inability to use electric vehicles for occasional extended trips.In an attempt to make purchasing electric vehicles more attractive to commuters, one electric vehicle producer is planning to offer customers three days free rental of a conventional car for every 1,000 miles that they drive their electric vehicle.
对电动车使用的最重要的障碍就是不能长途旅行。电动车的买家为吸引顾客若,计划顾客每行驶1000英里电动车就免费租借普通车三天。
Which of the following, if true, most threatens the plan's prospects for success?
(A) Many electric vehicles that are used for commercial purposes are not needed for extended trips.
(B) Because a majority of commuters drive at least 100 miles a week, the cost to the producer of making good the offer would add considerably to the already high price of electric vehicles.
正确,因为为了得到3天的免费租借,顾客必须每周至少跑100英里,无形中又增添了很多花费,所以不值得。
我选A是因为“由于不需要开远距离,所以就算有这个活动,也没有人会开那么远的距离”(以消弱) 正确答案B:我读的时候并不认为是这个意思呢。我觉得写的是大部分有电动车的人每星期都会至少开100miles。
