OG-35 ？？

35. Affirmative action is good business. So asserted the National Association of Manufacturers

while urging retention of an executive order requiring some federal contractors to set

numerical goals for hiring minorities and women. “Diversity in work force participation has

produced new ideas in management, product development, and marketing,” the association

claimed.

The association’s argument as it is presented in the passage above would be most

strengthened if which of the following were true?

A. The percentage of minority and women workers in business has increased more slowly

than many minority and women’s groups would prefer.

B. Those businesses with the highest percentages of minority and women workers are those

that have been the most innovative and profitable.

C. Disposable income has been rising as fast among minorities and women as among the

population as a whole.

D. The biggest growth in sales in the manufacturing sector has come in industries that market

the most innovative products.

E. Recent improvements in management practices have allowed many manufacturers to

experience enormous gains in worker productivity.

我选d , 老姨的答案是b ,  我知道b 有理, 想知道d 怎么错了，它指出了一个有利于支持的间接原因

    “Diversity in work force participation has produced new ideas in management, product development, and marketing,”


d: The biggest growth in sales in the manufacturing sector has come in industries that market the most innovative products.


少数民族和女性 有利于 product development。innovative products 可以 The biggest growth in sales


？？ 啊， 这里的product development 是不是产品发展（新产品开发阿？）

D address growth in sales and improvements in management, but it does not assert that these benefits are due to affirmative action.

爱爱, 我们需要用一个最好的选项(论据)去支持论点 The association’s argument “Diversity in work force participation has produced new ideas in management, product development, and marketing,”

你不能用等待被证明的论点去支持你的支持选项(论据),D根本没有提到Diversity, 应属无关选项.

product development 当然是产品发展了.

choice D and E does not refer to the percentage of minority and women, therefore they should be excluded first.

多谢。

俺觉得这道题没道理

Those businesses with the highest percentages of minority and women workers are those

that have been the most innovative and profitable.

一个全由黑女人组成的公司是不是有the most innovative and profitable,我不知道

但这个公司一定不能说是Diversity in work force 吧

因为想成这样,我就选了D

不知道是不是有点走火入魔了
