OG11-78;OG10-158.

In comparison to the standard typewriter keyboard, the EFCO keyboard, which places the most-used keys nearest the typist’s strongest fingers, allows faster typing and results in less fatigue, Therefore, replacement of standard keyboards with the EFCO keyboard will result in an immediate reduction of typing costs.

Which of the following, if true, would most weaken the conclusion drawn above?

(A) People who use both standard and EFCO keyboards report greater difficulty in the transition from the EFCO keyboard to the standard keyboard than in the transition from the standard keyboard to the EFCO keyboard.

(B) EFCO keyboards are no more expensive to manufacture than are standard keyboards and require less frequent repair than do standard keyboards.

(C) The number of businesses and government agencies that use EFCO keyboards is increasing each year.

(D) The more training and experience an employee has had with the standard keyboard, the more costly it is to train that employee to use the EFCO keyboard.

(E) Novice typists can learn to use the EFCO keyboard in about the same amount of time it takes them to learn to use the standard keyboard.

请教大家关于(A)(C)两项, OG11的解释说是加强.我不太明白. 题目说EFCO键盘比传统键盘好用,使打字速度加快和防止疲劳, 所以将传统键盘换成EFCO键盘可以使打字费用马上降低. (A)说, 从EFCO换成传统键盘比从传统键盘换成EFCO要难. (C)说很多部门都换用EFCO键盘了. 都只是说明了EFCO键盘的好处, 但是并没有指明能马上降低费用, 所以不算加强. 请问我的思路的问题在哪里呢?

我来试试回答：

A 说“ transition from the EFCO keyboard to the standard keyboard” 比 “from the standard keyboard to the EFCO keyboard”困难

replacement of standard keyboards with the EFCO keyboard所受到的阻力会较低，因为已经会使用EFCO keyboard 的人一定不会考虑再换回成standard keyboard因为这样做十分困难

而使用 standard keyboard 的人会倾向于使用EFCO keyboard因为相对于前者此种转换较容易些。

综上所述，大多数人会最终选择使用 EFCO keyboard 的，又因为此新方法会促成 “faster typing and results in less fatigue,”因此， “replacement of standard keyboards with the EFCO keyboard”将会 “result in an immediate reduction of typing costs”

(C) 中的 “The number of businesses and government agencies that use EFCO keyboards is increasing each year.“ 说明了一个客观现象，即 EFCO keyboards 有越来越广泛的使用，从一定的程度上证明了 EFCO keyboards 的合理性。因此也可以说是加强

但是题目的结论的immediate reduction of typing costs.就算是EFCO具有合理性, 也不能说明能马上削减费用啊?

楼主是不是把题目的问题理解反了？

Which of the following, if true, would most weaken the conclusion drawn above?

most weaken 可不是“加强”啊？

和楼住一样的问题，觉得ac和马上减少成本每什么联系

个人觉得A，C选项对结论的直接加强作用也不存在
