16. The recent upheaval in the office-equipment retail business, in which many small firms have gone out of business, has been attributed to the advent of office equipment “superstores” whose high sales volume keeps their prices low. This analysis is flawed, however, since even today the superstores control a very small share of the retail market.

   Which of the following, if true, would most weaken
   the argument that the analysis is flawed?
   (A) Most of the larger customers for office
       equipment purchase under contract directly
       from manufacturers and thus do not participate
       in the retail market.
   (B) The superstores’ heavy advertising of their low
       prices has forced prices down throughout the
       retail market for office supplies.
   (C) Some of the superstores that only recently
       opened have themselves gone out of business.
   (D) Most of the office equipment superstores are
       owned by large retailing chains that also own
       stores selling other types of goods.
   (E) The growing importance of computers in most
       offices has changed the kind of office
       equipment retailers must stock.
这道题的答案是B，但是我觉得B并没有反对the argument that the analysis is flawed。
只是加强了前半部分的论述。但是其他的选项应该也都不对。请指教阿

想再請教各位MM,為何A不行??我覺得A是他因導致analysis flaw的論述結果,那不就是weaken了analysis flaw了嗎??為何不對?謝謝.

analysis是如何分析many small firms have gone out of business的呢？是price；price怎么了呢？the advent of superstores导致了price low，这其中突出了“以价格为武器”的概念。

把问题转换一下，就是support that the analysis is right；A有理，但不是原题里面的理；B中体现了原题的思路。

补充一句，A 选项没说是买superstore时才directly from manufacturers 而是说买office equipment 那岂不是说不管买的是哪种equipment都直接从厂家买，大家都一样了，自然市场份额不会变化太大，所以没有起到削弱作用。

看来要认真读选项呀

我也做错了

ESeraph

顺着这道题的思路，A应该是无关选项

我常犯這種毛病...想請教是否有這種做題技巧??當文章分前後轉折.前面論述而後面反對,題目問削弱後者時,我是不是可以不管後面反對的內容,直接去找支持前面論述的答案就好了呢??謝謝!!
