OG12-38. Which of the following best completes the passage below?
The computer industry’s estimate that it loses millions of dollars when users illegally copy programs without
paying for them is greatly exaggerated. Most of the illegal copying is done by people with no serious interest in
the programs. Thus, the loss to the industry is quite small, because____ .
(A) many users who illegally copy programs never find any use for them
(B) most people who illegally copy programs would not purchase them even if purchasing them were the only
way to obtain them
(C) even if the computer industry received all the revenue it claims to be losing, it would still be experiencing
financial difficulties
(D) the total market value of all illegal copies is low in comparison to the total revenue of the computer
industry
(E) the number of programs that are frequently copied illegally is low in comparison to the number of
programs available for sale

答案是B没有问题,但是我排出D的原因是:即使‘total market value of all illegal copies is low’ 还是意味着会有相应的损失
,而且这个损失就绝对数量来说还可能很大
然而OG对D的解释为:This comparison is faulty: The loss is not being considered in the context of total industry
revenues but in the context of total sales of programs.

我不是很理解这个解释,这和比较对象有什么关系? 求指点
