没看到CD有讨论这个问题,but觉得很有趣,来开个贴~#prep 07 E2 CR17#
At present the Hollywood Restaurant has only standard-height tables. However, many customers come to watch the celebrities who frequent the Hollywood, and they would prefer tall tables with stools because such seating would afford a better view of the celebrities. Moreover, diners seated on stools typically do not stay as long as diners seated at standard-height tables. Therefore, if the Hollywood replaced some of its seating with high tables and stools, its profits would increase.
The argument is vulnerable to criticism on the grounds that it gives reason to believe that it is likely that
- A some celebrities come to the Hollywood to be seen, and so might choose to sit at the tall tables if they were available
- B the price of meals ordered by celebrities dining at the Hollywood compensates for the longer time, if any, they spend lingering over their meals
- C a customer of the Hollywood who would choose to sit at a tall table would be an exception to the generalization about lingering
- D a restaurant's customers who spend less time at their meals typically order less expensive meals than those who remain at their meals longer
- E with enough tall tables to accommodate all the Hollywood's customers interested in such seating, there would be no view except of other tall tables
OA是C 我觉得这道题的question gem 和answeo choice of C都很难懂。题干的这种说法我认为是问:argument是不好的,是因为?
所以相当于找argument里的false assumption or gap
我的理解是下面这样,不知道是否正确~还望大佬们指导~
plan: replace with high tables
goal:increase profit
how: (1) attract more pepole by affording better view (2) people spend less time 相当于翻台率高
我做CR习惯看完题干和gem在脑子演练一下自己大概会怎么attack,我的想法是攻击:更少的时间意味着花更少的钱吗? or 人们真的会spend less time吗?
所以正确答案可能就是错误地假设会花和之前一样的钱或者人们会spend less time,故选C
