29. The price of a full-fare coach ticket from Toronto to Dallas on Breezeway Airlines is the same today as it was a year ago, if inflation is taken into account by calculating prices in constant dollars. However, today 90 percent of the Toronto-to-Dallas coach tickets that Breezeway sells are discount tickets and only 10 percent are full-fare tickets, whereas a year ago half were discount tickets and half were full-fare tickets. Therefore, on average, people pay less today in constant dollars for a Breezeway Toronto-to-Dallas coach ticket than they did a year ago.
Which one of the following, if assumed, would allow the conclusion above to be properly drawn?
(A) A Toronto-to-Dallas full-fare coach ticket on Breezeway Airlines provides ticket-holders with a lower level of service today than such a ticket provided a year ago. (B) A Toronto-to-Dallas discount coach ticket on Breezeway Airlines costs about the same in constant dollars as they did a year ago. (C) All full-fare coach tickets on Breezeway Airlines cost the same in constant dollars as they did a year ago. (D) The average number of coach passengers per flight that Breezeway Airlines carries from Toronto to Dallas today is higher than the average number per flight a year ago. (E) The criteria that Breezeway Airlines uses for permitting passengers to buy discount coach tickets on the Toronto-to-Dallas route are different today than they were a year ago.
答案选B 本题所讲的,无非就是,people pay less today in constant dollars,而得出这个结论的证据是,以前10%有打折,现在一半有打折,那么,这个前提就是,他们的价格是一样的,不然,如果涨价,就不可能付的少了 A,service,无关 C,full-fare coach tickets cost the same 不等于打折后的也一样 D,无关 E,无关 我觉得应该选C, 因为题目里面说了考虑通货膨胀的话, 现在的全价票和以前的全价票价格一样。如果为了表示现在的人付的钱更少,那么就是在全价价格相等的情况下,打折多的付出的少啊?
