A product that represents a clear technological advance over competing products can generally command a high price. Because technological advances tend to be quickly surpassed and companies want to make large profits while they still can, many companies charge the maximum possible price for such a product.But large profits on the new product will give competitors a strong incentive to quickly match the new product's capabilities.Consequently, the strategy to maximize overall profit from a new product is to charge less than the greatest possible price.

In the argument above, the two portions in boldface play which of the following roles?

(A) The first is a consideration that has been raised to argue that a certain strategy is counterproductive; the second presents that strategy.

(B) The first is a consideration raised to support the strategy that the argument recommends; the second presents that strategy.

(C) The first is a consideration raised to explain the appeal of a certain strategy; the second presents that strategy.

(D) The first is an assumption, rejected by the argument, that has been used to justify a course of action; the second presents that course of action.

(E) The first is a consideration that has been used to justify pursuing a goal that the argument rejects; the second presents a course of action that has been adopted in pursuit of that goal.
答案为什么是C呢？

第一黑部分意思是指采用一种strategy，但是没给出这种strategy是好是坏，就如C所说，appeal certain strategy。第二黑部分是作者推崇的strategy，从consequently就能看出，是指结论。

我觉得两个黑体部分的strategy不是指同一个，第二个黑的是指另外一个作者所推崇的strategy，而第一个是指作者不推崇的。
打扰了！

这道PREP题的题目部分标错了，详解部分标的是对的，如下：

Becausetechnological advances tend to be quickly surpassed and companies want to make large profits while they still can, many companies charge the maximum possible price for such a product.
