严重不理解~~~

Denoma, a major consumer-electronics maker, had a sizable decline in sales revenue for its most recent fiscal year.  This result appears surprising, because electronics retailers report that although their overall sales were considerably lower than in the previous year, their sales revenue from Denoma models actually grew, largely thanks to some innovative and popular models that Denoma introduced.

Which of the following, if true, does most to explain the apparently surprising result?

A. Because of the need to educate the public about its new models’ capabilities, Denoma’s advertising spending was higher than normal over the period.

B. For the period at issue, Denoma’s major competitors reported declines in revenue that were, in percentage terms, greater than Denoma’s.

C. A significant proportion of Denoma’s revenue comes from making components for other consumer-electronics manufacturers.

D. Unlike some of its major competitors, Denoma has no lines of business outside consumer electronics to provide revenue when retail sales of consumer electronics are weak.

E. During the period, consumer-electronics retailers sold remaining units of Denoma’s superseded models at prices that were deeply discounted from those models’ original prices.

题目说
1. Denoma去年总的sale revenue（销售收入） 减小
2. 下游零售商的overall sales（全部销售额）减小
3. 下游零售商的Denoma的sale revenue （销售收入）增加
但是1和3构成了一个矛盾。

看选项，找能解释的……
A. 是支出，和收入描述的结果无关
B. 是说的是比例比较，和题目描述的结果都是绝对数字关系不大
C. 说的是denoma的收入和其他品牌有关，这可能因为2导致这方面收入减少，即使3发生，1也可能发生
D. 是消费电器之外的，和题目无关
E. 是售价，和收入描述的结果无关

所以C最可能是对的……
