GWD31-40

A shortage of orders for Manto Aircraft’s airliners has led analysts to predict that the manufacturer will have to lay off workers, the new order that consolidated airlines has just made for 20 of Manto’s model TX jets does not provide a reason for the analysts to revise their predictions, because simultaneously with its new order, consolidated canceled its existing order for an equal number of manto’s larger, more expensive model Z jets.

 

 

 

Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument?

 

 

 

A.     Manto relies more heavily on outside subcontractors to provide the labor to manufacture the model Z than it does the model TX

B.     The Manto employees who currently work to manufacture the model Z are not proficient at manufacturing the model TX

C.     Manto includes all required maintenance work for the first five years in the price of each jet it sells

D.     Manto has had to lay off workers several times within the past ten years but has typically rehired many of the workers when it subsequently received new orders

E.      A large number of the airliners in consolidated fleet are at the beginning of their expected service life

ANS: A
    

请教各位大大们，这题我左看右看搞不清楚在问什么？？

这题应该要找什么答案？？？

A说: M主要依赖外部subcontractor提供大量制造Z模型than it does the model TX

为何可以weaken结论?????????

Manto relies more heavily on outside subcontractors to provide the labor to manufacture the model Z than it does the model TX

subcontract就是转包合同，也就是把自己的部分业务给别人，如果在Z的制作过程中转包合同很多，那么自己工人做得就不多，那么相对来说，这些工人去完成TX的话就不够了，所以就不用裁这么多的人了

thanks a lot.................

就是转包Z JET比较多，但是定单下的是TX,而TX没有那么多外包的，只好自己工人做，所以就应该不会裁人了。而ARGUMENT说ANALYST不会改变观点，所以是WEAKEN的。

A shortage of orders for Manto Aircraft’s airliners has led analysts to predict that the manufacturer will have to lay off workers, the new order that consolidated airlines has just made for 20 of Manto’s model TX jets does not provide a reason for the analysts to revise their predictions, because simultaneously with its new order, consolidated canceled its existing order for an equal number of manto’s larger, more expensive model Z jets. 订单变少→lay off workers；接了新的20个TX订单，但还是会lay off workers，因为接新订单的同时，同等数量却又比较贵的Z订单会取消

Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument?

 

A.    Manto relies more heavily on outside subcontractors to provide the labor to manufacture the model Z than it does the model TX 生产Z的员工本来就不是内部员工，所以就算Z减少了，对员工数也没影响，反而因为新型订单增加更不可能裁员
        →正面weaken因为接新订单的同时，同等数量却又比较贵的Z订单会取消

B.    The Manto employees who currently work to manufacture the model Z are not proficient at manufacturing the model TX 生产Z的员工对生产TX不熟练
        所以取消Z之后就理所当然会裁员，可是这样的话，谁来生产TX？ B的flaw在哪？

NOTALOSER

公司依赖外包造Z飞机，TX相对没那么依赖外包。而新来的合同是TX的，那么需要的员工数就要比之前造Z的多，就不会裁人，结论被WEAKEN

B错在哪里呢？没人错选B吗？

B是支持了
