The new Axis Starlight, Axis Auto’s flagship electric-gas hybrid automobile, is considered so efficient by Axis that the company plans to sell the Starlight to consumers for no payment other than the difference between what the consumer paid for gasoline for the past three years of driving their previous vehicle and what they will pay for gasoline while driving the Starlight for the next three years. Consumers will make an initial downpayment, and then pay any remaining fees after fuel costs have been assessed at the end of the three year period.
Which of the following, if true, would most significantly disadvantage Axis Auto based on their proposed payment system?
(A) Most drivers own only one automobile.
(B) Other car manufacturers are planning to introduce similar fuel-efficient vehicles.
(C) Drivers interested in the Starlight tend to drive significantly more miles annually than the average driver.
(D) The price of gasoline is expected to rise dramatically over the next three years.
(E) The annual amount spent on gasoline by drivers can be accurately determined based on the number of miles driven in a specific make of automobile
这道题目我认为A其实也是对的,理由如下:这道题目的反驳点就在于这个payment system成不成立,也就是A公司能不能从中获得利益。→如果每个人只有一辆车的话,这个payment system就根本不存在了,也就无法从中获得利润→所以weaken了整个argument。
为什么这种想法不对呢?(解析上说:A根本和收取差价的payment system无关,可是我认为可以直接weaken了,因为如果只有一辆车,这个payment system就不成立了,刚好就反驳了原文)
