Because of their credos, these fifteen corporations give generously to charity, follow stringent environmental-protection policies, and have vigorous affirmative-action programs.  B

Which of the following can be correctly inferred from the statements above?

(A) Following a credo of social responsibility helps to make a corporation very profitable.

(B) It is possible for a corporation that follows a credo of social responsibility to be very profitable.

(C) A corporation that gives generously to charity must be doing so because of its credo of social responsibility.

(D) Corporations that are very profitable tend to give generously to charity.

(E) Corporations that have vigorous affirmative-action programs also tend to follow stringent environmental-protection policies.

看了以前的帖子~ 大家都在讨论 a & b 的差异...

可是 D 呢~

而且 b 很诡异阿 它只归纳了 前一句 即 “According to a recent study, fifteen corporations in the United States that follow a credo of social responsibility are also very profitable” 后边那句成废话了...

但是 d 就很好的连接 前后了阿~

credo 带来 profitable

credo 又是 give generously to charity 的原因...

d 正好把两个联系来了....

恩.... 那位好心人... 帮帮忙———— thxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

It is said that "fifteen corporations in the United States that follow a credo of social responsibility are also very profitable", "Give generously to charity" is only one feature of those fifteen corporations, it cannot be regarded as the common features of all the corporations that are profitable. I think D is yi3 pian1 gai4 quan2 (Sorry I cannot type Chinese here). Just fore your reference.

D我觉得不对的是文章说Because of their credos, these fifteen corporations give generously to charity，因为这些公司的信仰所以才捐钱，D选项意思是获利的公司才慷慨的捐钱。这个和premise的意思有出入。我也是在A和B中纠结，但是A说的绝对了，问长直说调查显示15个公司有信仰的同时获得大量的利润，没有说被调查的对象一共有多少个，如果有100个调查，只有15个获利那么A选项就不对（当然也肯能是一共就只调查了15个公司，结果全部获利。那么A选项就不能直接从文章中推出来）。还不选A的另一个原因是可以分析句子结构fifteen corporations in the United States that follow a credo of social responsibility are also very profitable. （主语是fifteen corporations谓语和表语是are also very profitable，that...是定语从句，修饰corporation，credo是附带修饰公司的，不是说是credo导致盈利）。哈哈，这只是我个人的观点，欢迎讨论
