再问GWD-3-8

GWD3-Q8:

Which of the following most logically completes the passage?

 

Garnet and RenCo each provide health care for their employees.  Garnet pays for both testing of its employees’ cholesterol levels and treatment of high cholesterol.  This policy saves Garnet money, since high cholesterol left untreated for many years leads to conditions that require very expensive treatment.  However, RenCo dose not have the same financial incentive to adopt such a policy, because ______.

 

A.    early treatment of high cholesterol dose not entirely eliminate the possibility of a stroke later in life

B.    the mass media regularly feature stories encouraging people to maintain diets that are low in cholesterol

C.    RenCo has significantly more employees than Garnet has

D.    RenCo’s employees are unlikely to have higher cholesterol levels than Garnet’s employees

E.     the average length of time an employee stays with RenCo is less than it is with Garnet

看了以前帖子的解释 还是觉得有问题搞不明白 我选了是D.前面人说不选D的原因是不比G高 不代表就不高. 但是文章是说"same financial incentive to adopt such a policy" 也有可能R只是觉得没G高,就不跟G一样有INCENTIVE了.

 还有就是E中,employee stays with R 的时间短,也有可能那些工作的人以前在别的地方就已经很长时间有这个病了.然后一到R就发作了. 我觉得E要有前提就是这些人进入R以前都要是健康的 检查的没问题才可以.

答案是E,请NN们帮忙解释一下.谢谢啦

我也想选D呢~

我选e

D.    RenCo’s employees are unlikely to have higher cholesterol levels than Garnet’s employees

该选项的问题在于 unlikely to have higher...than，意思是不太可能比G更高，那如果一样高呢？所以从逻辑上来看这个理由不是充分的

 

E.     the average length of time an employee stays with RenCo is less than it is with Garnet

E选项的意思是R的员工在R呆的时间比G的短，员工在G公司呆的时间长正是G需要提供2nd incentive的原因，现在e说R没有这个问题所以逻辑上来讲R不需要提供2nd incentive

 

至于lz担心R的员工是否会一进R就会发病，我觉得这和整个题目的逻辑是没有关系的，GMAT考试的特点在于给你一定的资讯，你在这些资讯里面选择最佳答案，不需要你有额外的背景知识或者特殊假定情况（即牛角尖）
