[求助]GWD-21-8 追问 急

追问一下，有xdjm问过，就是没人给个说法，哈哈！

Seventeenth-century
  

       philosopher John Locke

       stated that as much as

Line       99 percent of the value of

  (5)      any useful product can be

attributed to “the effects of

labor.”  For Locke’s intellec-

tual heirs it was only a short

step to the “labor theory of

 (10)      value,” whose formulators

held that 100 percent of the

value of any product is gen-

erated by labor (the human

work needed to produce

 (15)      goods) and that therefore the

employer who appropriates

any part of the product’s

value as profit is practicing

theft.

 (20)            Although human effort is

       required to produce goods

       for the consumer market,

effort is also invested in

making capital goods (tools,

 (25)      machines, etc.), which are

used to facilitate the produc-

tion of consumer goods.  In

modern economies about

one-third of the total output of

 (30)      consumer goods is attribut-

able to the use of capital

goods.  Approximately two-

       thirds of the income derived

from this total output is paid

 (35)
        out to workers as wages and

salaries, the remaining third

serving as compensation

to the owners of the capital

      goods.  Moreover, part

 (40)     of this remaining third is

received by workers who

are shareholders, pension

beneficiaries, and the like.

The labor theory of value

 (45)      systematically disregards

the productive contribution of

capital goods—a failing for

which Locke must bear part

of the blame.

 

Q8:

The author of the passage is primarily concerned with

             

1. criticizing Locke’s economic theories
      
2. discounting the contribution of labor in a modern economy
      
3. questioning the validity of the labor theory of value
      
4. arguing for a more equitable distribution of business profits
      
5. contending that employers are overcompensated for capital goods

我也选A, 根据最后一句，bear part of the blame. 请xdjm给指点一下从那里可以看出对the labor theory of value 的正确性有质疑！

我觉得C好一点 毕竟subject是labor theory of value 必须出现的
plus, L only provides a view, not sufficient to establish a theory

原来这是两年前的帖子。mizhang9你翻箱底的功夫不错哦。

这道题选C)不选A)的原因很简单，JL的value of labor只是用来引出labor theory of value，而作者的所有description和questioning都是针对labor theory of value而不是value of labor。结尾又提到JL只是强调了一下他与labor theory of value的产生是逃脱不了干系的。
