[求助]大全-2-9

9. Which of the following best completes the passage below?
The computer industry’s estimate that it loses millions of dollars when users illegally copy programs without paying for them is greatly exaggerated. Most of the illegal copying is done by people with no serious interest in the programs. Thus, the loss to the industry is much smaller than estimated because
(A) many users who illegally copy programs never find any use for them
(B) most of the illegally copied programs would not be purchased even if purchasing them were the only way to obtain them
(C) even if the computer industry received all the revenue it claims to be losing, it would still be experiencing financial difficulties
(D) the total market value of all illegal copies is low in comparison to the total revenue of the computer industry
(E) the number of programs that are frequently copied illegally is low in comparison to the number of programs available for sale


请问A为什么不对?题干中只是说使用要付钱,而B中的BUY比买范围窄,我这样是不是钻牛角尖了


题干中的no serious interest 指的是利益还是兴趣?


B中的 EVEN IF  后的内容怎么让人觉得别扭,与题干关系不大呢,我就是在看到这后半句就排除它了


请NN们指教,多谢!

答案是B 吧?


我verbal不好,CR 也不怎样,但我的一点感觉要做对CR, 还是要彻底读懂stem的意思。(一碰到考试,我就慌,意思要读好几遍才明白,有时候读了几遍也摸不着头脑)。


这题的stem 和B 说:


那些使用盗版的人,对那些软件不是很感兴趣,可有可无。如果购买是唯一取得它的途径的话,他们根本就不会买,现在因为是免费的(可down的),所以他们才有意无意的用一下。所以说他们的这种盗版行为不至于造成软件公司所说的对他们公司利益造成危害。所以B 符合逻辑,支持吧可以说。 让我想想,A为什么不对


"many users who illegally copy programs never find any use for them."uhhh...whatever these people find those copy programs any use or not, they have to first to PAY to take a glimpse, i guess.


(xixi...however we still dont want to pay to ets)

提干说,盗版对他们造成了很坏的影响,但A说那些盗版的人从来不用那个软件,好像不相关吧。

因为用不用对公司没影响,就好像别人偷了你的钱,花不花对你来说都一样。

B说,如果买盗版软件是唯一得到它的途径的话,那别人就不会买,因为软件没什么用嘛。

所以盗版软件没得到什么利益,也就不会给正版造成太大影响。

文章不是说购买是唯一途径吗? 怎么还有免费download呢?


这题虽然做对了,但不理解. 即便是盗版者no serious interset 不会去购买, 而购买又是唯一的途径,那illegal copying is done by people, 是怎么done的呢?

请教一道题


On a certain day, nine scheduled flights on Swift Airlines were canceled. Ordinarily, a cancellation is due to mechanical problems with the airplane scheduled for a certain flight. However, since it is unlikely that Swift would have the mechanical problems with more than one or two scheduled flights on a single day, some of the nine cancellations were probably due to something else.


The argument depends on which one of the following assumptions?



A.        More than one or two airplanes were scheduled for the nine canceled flights.


B.        Swift Airlines has fewer mechanical problems than do other airlines of the same size.


C.        Each of the canceled flights would have been longer than the average flight on Swift Airlines.


D.       Swift Airlines had never before canceled more than one or two scheduled flights on a single day.


E.        All of the airplanes scheduled for the canceled flights are based at the same airport.
