天山 9-3逻辑 求助

Q3:
Business Consultant: Some corporations shun the use of executive titles because they
fear that the use of titles indicating position in the corporation tends to inhibit
communication up and down the corporate hierarchy. Since an executive who uses a
title is treated with more respect by outsiders, however, use of a title can facilitate an
executive’s dealings with external businesses. The obvious compromise is for these
24
executives to use their corporate titles externally but not internally, since even if it is
widely known that the corporation’s executives use executive titles outside their
organization, this knowledge does not by itself inhibit communication within the
corporation.
In the consultant’s reasoning, the two portions in boldface play which of the following
roles?
A. The first presents an obstacle to achieving a certain goal; the second presents a
reason for considering that goal to be undesirable.
B. The first is a consideration that has led to the adoption of a certain strategy; the
second presents a reason against adopting that strategy.
C. The first describes a concern that the consultant dismisses as insignificant; the
second is a consideration that serves as the basis for that dismissal.
D. The first is a belief for which the consultant offers support; the second is part of
that support.
E. The first is a belief against which evidence is offered; the second is part of the
evidence offered against that belief.

看不太懂，答案是B，那么这里的strategy是什么呢？使用头衔？外边使用头衔？我的理解是对内部用头衔，对外用，如果是这样，那么为什么B说反对呢?天山九套让我非常郁闷。

楼主，你没有把bold face标出来。。。

单从答案推的话，这里的strategy是指文章开头提到的公司的“shun the use of executive”strategy

附上bold font first, 楼上的解释让我茅塞顿开，开来是读题目不够细致。多谢帮助！
