The Calex Telecommunications Company is planning to introduce cellular telephone service into isolated coastal areas of Caladia, a move which will require considerable investment. However, the only significant economic activity in these areas is small-scale coffee farming, and none of the coffee farmers make enough money to afford the monthly service fees that Calex would have to charge to make a profit. Nevertheless, Calex contends that making the service available to these farmers will be profitable.

Which of the following, if true, provides the strongest support for Calex's contention?

正确答案: A

The Calex Telecommunications Company is planning to introduce cellular telephone service into isolated coastal areas of Caladia, a move which will require considerable investment.  However, the only significant economic activity in these areas is small-scale coffee farming, and none of the coffee farmers make enough money to afford the monthly service fees that Calex would have to charge to make a profit.  Nevertheless, Calex contends that making the service available to these farmers will be profitable.

Which of the following, if true, provides the strongest support for Calex's contention?

(A) Currently, Caladian coffee farmers are forced to sell their coffee to local buyers at whatever price those buyers choose to pay because the farmers are unable to remain in contact with outside buyers who generally offer higher prices.
(B) In the coastal areas of Caladia where Calex proposes to introduce cellular telephone service, there is currently no fixed-line telephone service because fixed-line companies do not believe that they could recoup their investment.
(C) A cellular telephone company can break even with a considerably smaller number of subscribers than a fixed-line company can, even in areas such as the Caladian coast, where there is no difficult terrain to drive up the costs of installing fixed lines.
(D) Calex bases its monthly fees for cellular telephone service in a given region partly on the cost of installing the necessary equipment to provide the service there.
(E) Calex has for years made a profit on cellular telephone service in Caladia's capital city, which is not far from the coastal region.

如果A对,那么是农民 will be profitable.但是,我理解的 Nevertheless, Calex contends that making the service available to these farmers will be profitable.的意思是 Calex 为农民提供的这种服务将会增加Calex 的利润

原文说那个电话服务不赚钱是因为农民付不起  
A 说农民能赚钱了  那原文的前提就没有了  所以电话服务是能赚钱的
B 选项里的fixed-line telephone service跟原文无关

哦。。。好像懂了
是不是这样,原来农民付不起电话前,现在通过和外界联系,能付的起电话钱了,因此电话公司也就盈利了。
农民盈利---电话公司盈利
对么???

之前没有仔细看这句话none of the coffee farmers make enough money to afford the monthly service fees that Calex would have to charge to make a profit.

楼主,您对题目的理解是正确的。同时,A选项确实说了农民可以赚钱。而文章中的前提是,农民无力支付那些该公司为盈利而要收取的服务费。现在农民可以赚钱了,也就意味着农民可以支付服务费,这样该公司也就有利润了。

个人愚见啊,也不知您能否理解。

谢谢!!
最近逻辑终于入了点门,其实发现如果没有读很明白也是能做对的
正确答案一定是即和前提联系,有和结论联系,这就是所谓的相关性吧。。。
有些容易错选的一般都是只和结论联系,或者是之和前提联系
就像这道题,我选的B就是之和结论联系了,而没和前提联系
大家有这种体会么???

但是有的时候会有两个选项都满足,
这时候必须看懂意思了,因为往往一个是削弱,一个是加强
