Three large companies and seven small companies currently manufacture a product with potential military applications. If the government regulates the industry, it will institute a single set of manufacturing specifications to which all ten companies will have to adhere. In this case, therefore, since none of the seven small companies can afford to convert their production lines to a new set of manufacturing specifications, only the three large companies will be able to remain in business.

Which of the following is an assumption on which the author's argument relies?

GWD6-Q38

GWD6-Q38:

Three large companies and seven small companies currently manufacture a product with potential military applications.  If the government regulates the industry, it will institute a single set of manufacturing specifications to which all ten companies will have to adhere.  In this case, therefore, since none of the seven small companies can afford to convert their production lines to a new set of manufacturing specifications, only the three large companies will be able to remain in business.

Which of the following is an assumption on which the author’s argument relies?

 

A.    None of the three large companies will go out of business if the government does not regulate the manufacture of the product.

B.    It would cost more to convert the production lines of the small companies to a new set of manufacturing specifications than it would to convert the production lines of the large companies.

C.    Industry lobbyists will be unable to dissuade the government from regulating the industry.

D.    Assembly of the product produced according to government manufacturing specifications would be more complex than current assembly procedures.

E.    None of the seven small companies currently manufactures the product to a set of specifications that would match those the government would institute if the industry were to be regulated.

      因为none of the seven small companies can afford to convert their production lines, 若要另外3家大公司remain的话,假设不就应该是大公司convert的花费少么?我选了B,答案给的是E,不明白。。。求NN解答~~

这题选择E ,作者的结论是只有3个大公司能活下来 理由是10个公司都要满足新规定然而7个小公司都很“穷”无法适应新规定

作者忽略了一个因素那就是  万一这7个小公司里又本身它就符合这新规定 根本不需要转换的情况 所以它还是能够生存的!

B不好 B说作者假设了转换成本小公司要比大公司高 那其实未必 低也有能

拜谢!
的确是忽略了不需要转换的情况。但是总觉得这道题没有证明大公司can afford 转换的费用,或是有不需要转换的可能,结论的remain怎么得出的呢?
