晕了．哪个是结论？ＯＧ６４

amber0919

６４The imposition of quotas limiting imported steel will not help the big American steel mills. In fact, the quotas will help “mini-mills” flourish in the United States. Those small domestic mills will take more business from the big American steel mills than would have been taken by the foreign steel mills in the absence of quotas.

Which of the following, if true, would cast the most serious doubt on the claim made in the last sentence above?

(A) Quality rather than price is a major factor in determining the type of steel to be used for a particular application.

(B) Foreign steel mills have long produced grades of steel comparable in quality to the steel produced by the big American mills.

(C) American quotas on imported goods have often induced other countries to impose similar quotas on American goods.

(D) Domestic “mini-mills” consistently produce better grades of steel than do the big American mills.

(E) Domestic “mini-mills” produce low-volume, specialized types of steels that are not produced by the big American steel mills.

哪个是结论？红色的还是蓝色的？有点晕了。．．感觉Ｅ对两个都有削弱作用。

这道题选E对吗？
结论是前面红色的，但是题目说的是“would cast the most serious doubt on the claim made in the last sentence above”，也就是蓝色部分。蓝色的句子其实是分析，也就是对结论的解释。题干的观点是，由于小的矿井会取代外国的矿井成为大矿井的供应商，所以对大的矿井没有帮助。如果能weaken这个解释之一的就是E，小矿井生产的并不适合大矿井。

顶。有点像阅读中的结论说明型套路文章。后面的两句是为了说明解释第一句的。呵呵
