以下是引用祈晴坊主在2003-9-18 11:25:00的发言: 今天的问题 SET17 Ⅲ 9. Fines levied against those responsible for certain environmentally damaging accidents are now so high that it costs a company responsible for such an accident more to pay the fine than it would have cost to adopt measures that would have prevented the accident. Therefore, since businesses value their profits, those that might have such accidents will now install adequate environmental safeguards
Which one of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument?
(A) Businesses generally greatly underestimate the risk of future accidents.
(B) Businesses are as concerned with long-term as they are with short-term strategies for maximizing profits.
(C) Businesses generally do the environmentally "right" thing only if doing so makes good business sense.
(D) Businesses treat fines that are levied against them as an ordinary business expense.
(E) Businesses are learning to exploit the public's environmental awareness in promoting themselves
答案选A,我觉得A不是正好支持文中的观点吗,因为他们低估risk of future accidents 所以才不愿采取措施啊
D为什么不对啊,我他们正式把罚款看做日常支出,那么才不在乎罚款,不是吗

第二题: 我觉得你已将选a的原因讲出来了。因为,原文的观点是:厂家由于怕罚款所以不得不采取预防措施。a said that they do not care certain environmentally damaging accidents in the future. 直接反对作者的论据。Fines are now so high that t would have cost to adopt measures that would have prevented the accident. D为什么不对啊,我他们正式把罚款看做日常支出,那么才不在乎罚款,不是吗? 这可不一样,这只是其记帐方法的不同而已,也是会影响利润的。不能推出那么才不在乎罚款。
