A product that represents a clear technological advance over competing products can generally command a high price. Because technological advances tend to be quickly surpassed and companies want to make large profits while they still can, many companies charge the greatest price the market will bear when they have such a product. But large profits on the new product will give competitors a strong incentive to quickly match the new product's capabilities. Consequently, the strategy to maximize overall profit from a new product is to charge less than the greatest possible price.

In the argument above, the two portions in boldface play which of the following roles?

Q3:

A product that represents a clear technological advance over competing products can generally command a high price.  Because technological advances tend to be quickly surpassed and companies want to make large profits while they still can, many companies charge the greatest price the market will bear when they have such a product.  But large profits on the mew product will give competitors a strong incentive to quickly match the mew product’s capabilities.  Consequently, the strategy to maximize overall profit from a new product is to charge less than the greatest possible price.

 

In the argument above, the two portions in boldface play which of the following roles?

 

  1. The first is an assumption that forms the basis for a course of action that the argument criticizes; the second presents the course of action endorsed by the argument.

  2. The first is a consideration raised to explain the appeal of a certain strategy; the second is a consideration raised to call into question the wisdom of adopting that strategy.

  3. The first is an assumption that has been used to justify a certain strategy; the second is a consideration that is used to cast doubt on that assumption.

  4. The first is a consideration raised in support of a strategy the argument endorses; the second presents grounds in support of that consideration.

  5. The first is a consideration raised to show that adopting a certain strategy is unlikely to achieve the intended effect; the second is presented to explain the appeal of that strategy.

ANSWER:B(围绕strategy展开)

最头疼BOLDFACE题型,请大家帮忙解释一下以下几个关键词的意思:旁边是我自己的理解

consideration       想法,考虑点

appeal               (满足某种策略的)要求                 

argument             我查到的这个单词的义项有很多:1。辩论

                           2。论点,论据(在这里到底是什么?)  

                           3。主题,概要

                          4。 (逻辑术语)三段论中的中项中词(有谁是学逻辑专业的??中项是不是就是论据呢?)

consideration = idea 想法就可以

appeal = attraction吸引力. The appeal of a good MBA program is what motivates me to study hard on GMAT.

argumentRC里指辩论的过程. 也就是从前提到结论的过程. 因为多数原文是讲这个过程, 如此题. Argument指原文. 有时有strengthen the argument, weaken the argument, evaluate the argument的问题, 也是同理.
