一道逻辑题:
Because of rising costs, United Shipping Company raised its rates by ten percent last year. Many of its customers balked at the increase, however, and turned to a rival company whose rates were lower. In response, United Shipping Company began offering a package of services for a single rate that, though high, is still lower than the combined rates of the individual services. Officers of the company claim that this move will recoup the company's lost profits.

Which of the following, if true, provides the best basis for the officers' claim?



A. United Shipping will aggressively advertise the new package of services.
B. United Shipping's rival does not offer some of the services included in the package.
C. Marketing studies have shown that many of United Shipping's former customers would prefer a combined rate for their various shipping services.
D. United Shipping does not already offer all the services separately.
E. No other shipping company offers the same package of services as United Shipping


答案选C, totally 搞不清楚,哪位NN能帮帮忙啊~~

Conclusion: Officers of the company claim that this move will recoup the company's lost profits.

題目主要內容是說:這家運貨公司想填補之前調漲運費的損失,所以實施新方案: a single rate that is still lower than the combined rates of the individual services

A. United Shipping will aggressively advertise the new package of services.無關
B. United Shipping's rival does not offer some of the services included in the package.競爭公司不會提供該公司新方案中的一些服務->競爭公司不就更不構成威脅,錯!
C. Marketing studies have shown that many of United Shipping's former customers would prefer a combined rate for their various shipping services.市場調查顯示許多該公司原本的顧客偏好a combined rate,而該公司現在推出a single rate(更低),原本的顧客就會回流了,正確!
D. United Shipping does not already offer all the services separately.無關
E. No other shipping company offers the same package of services as United Shipping.部分正確,但是沒有完全達到題目的要求,仔細看結論,這家公司要recoup之前的損失,而這個選項只能知道:該方案因為沒有競爭公司提供相同服務,所以有可能填補之前損失但不能確定,反觀c選項卻連結到該公司原本失去的顧客會回流,所以不選e
