Transnational cooperation among corporations is experiencing a modest renaissance among United States firms, even though projects undertaken by two or more corporations under a collaborative agreement are less profitable than projects undertaken by a single corporation.The advantage of transnational cooperation is that such joint international projects may allow United States firms to win foreign contracts that they would not otherwise be able to win.

Which of the following is information provided by the passage?

(A) Transnational cooperation involves projects too big for a single corporation to handle.

(B) Transnational cooperation results in a pooling of resources leading to high-quality performance.

(C) Transnational cooperation has in the past been both more common and less common than it is now among United States firms.

(D) Joint projects between United States and foreign corporations are not profitable enough to be worth undertaking.

(E) Joint projects between United States and foreign corporations benefit only those who commission the projects.

请问这道题为什么选ｃ呢？谢谢

我的理解是：
这是一个归纳题，从题干中能直接得出。第一句话中说Transnational cooperation among corporations is experiencing a modest renaissance ，renaissance复兴就说明了在过去它兴起过，辉煌过，最后没落了，但是最近又开始复苏了，modest说明它的程度，这样可以由得到C。
A选项中projects的大小和tansnational cooperation 和single cooperation之间能力的比较题中没有提到，只是提到了tansnational cooperation比single cooperation 更容易获得合同，但是前者比后者单独做projects要利润少。
B resources leading to high-quality performance题中没有
D not profitable enough to be worth undertaking题中说有理论，不然就不会利用transnational cooperation这样的方式去争取合同，尽管这种方式比自己单独做得到的利润少。

has in the past been both more common and less common than it is now among United States firms.

对，我也想知道这句话啥意思。。。求助

more common and less common 个人理解就是“适中”modest的意思， more or less 的意思不是或多或少吗。用在这儿，就相当于不多不少的普遍，普遍程度适中。

has in the past been both more common and less common than it is now among United States firms.

It means that the transnational cooperation is a dynamic phenomenon -- always changing!

something experiences a renaissance, it becomes popular or successful again after a time when people were not interested in it

From RON

first, the word "renaissance" (rebirth) implies that transnational cooperation is now on the rise, after previously having a lower level. so that takes care of the "lower in the past" part of the correct answer.

second, the renaissance is described as "modest". the only way this description would be reasonable is if transnational cooperation has not re-achieved its previous levels; there's the "higher in the past" part.
