关于XDF答案的有效性----请教XDF补充教材 setion10-(13)

 Exports of United States wood pulp will rise consid-

erably during this year. The reason for the rise is

that the falling value of the dollar will make it

cheaper for paper manufacturers in Japan and West-

ern Europe to buy American wood pulp than to get

it from any other source.

Which of the following is an assumption made in

drawing the conclusion above?

(B) The quality of the wood pulp produced in the

United States would be adequate for the

purposes of Japanese and Western European

paper manufacturers.

(C) Paper manufacturers in Japan and Western

Europe would prefer to use wood pulp

produced in the United States if cost were

not a factor.

答案给的是B，我觉得C也同样有道理，不知其他同学的意见，thanx...

谢谢解释。

看来你比较信仰XDF， 我却不这么认为。。。个人拙见

neither of the two choices seems to be perfect.

According to the argument above, the correct assumption should be like this:

Assumption: Price is the main factor to paper manufacturers in Japan and Western Europe when deciding wthether to use wood pulp produced in the United States.

Hence, this question doesn't look like a typical ETS one.

B不佳

但C更像是个conclusion

呵呵，你误会我了，这里面我说的新东方的答案是指“你现在做的这套XDF试题的答案”，因为我以及我的同学做过，确实没什么错误，我只局限这套题。我可不会膜拜哪个机构。。

gonghao 请解释一下为什么不佳,如果a不成立,能推出结论么?
