58.The cause of the wreck of the ship Edmund Fitzgerald in a severe storm on Lake Superior is still unknown. When the sunken wreckage of the vessel was found, searchers discovered the hull in two pieces lying close together. The storm‘s violent waves would have caused separate pieces floating even briefly on the surface to drift apart. Therefore, the breakup of the hull can be ruled out as the cause of the sinking. Which of the following is an assumption on which the argument depends? A. Ships as large as the Edmund Fitzgerald rarely sink except in the most violent weather. B. Underwater currents at the time of the storm did not move the separated pieces of the hull together again. C. Pieces of the hull would have sunk more quickly than the intact hull would have. D. The waves of the storm were not violent enough to have caused the ship to break up on the surface. E. If the ship broke up before sinking, the pieces of the hull would not have remained on the surface for very long. 答案是b觉得被绕混了。。
66.A product that represents a clear technological advance over competing products can generally command a high price. Surprisingly, perhaps, the strategy to maximize overall profit from a new product is to charge than the greatest price the market will bear. Many companies charge the maximum possible price for such a product, because they want to make as much profit as they can and technological advances tend to be quickly surpassed. The drawback is that large profits on the new product give competitors a strong incentive to quickly match the new product's capabilities. In the argument above, the two portions in boldface play which of the following roles? A. The first is the position the argument advocates; the second presents grounds for rejecting an alternative position. B. The first is the position the argument advocates; the second is an alternative position that the argument rejects. C. The first presents a strategy for achieving a certain goal; the second presents a drawback to that strategy. D. The first presents a strategy for achieving a certain goal; the second presents grounds for preferring a different
goal. E. The first presents a strategy that, according to the argument, is ineffective; the second presents a way of improving the effectiveness of that strategy.
答案是 a 想知道**the strategy to maximize overall profit from a new product is to charge than the greatest price the market will bear 和 **charge the maximum possible price for such a product是一个意思么？ 因为看见答案将前者定义为a strategy 后者定义为an alternative strateg
