Studies in restaurants show that the tips left by customers who pay their bill in cash tend to be larger when the bill is presented on a tray that bears a creditcard logo. Consumer psychologists hypothesize that simply seeing a credit-card logo makes many creditcard holders willing to spend more because it reminds them that their spending power exceeds the cash they have immediately available.
Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the psychologists' interpretation of the studies?
94. Studies in restaurants show that the tips left by customers who pay their bill in cash tend to be larger when the bill is presented on a tray that bears a credit-card logo. Consumer psychologists hypothesize that simply seeing a credit-card logo makes many credit-card holders willing to spend more because it reminds them that their spending power exceeds the cash they have immediately available. Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the psychologists’ interpretation of the studies? (A) The effect noted in the studies is not limited to patrons who have credit cards. (B) Patrons who are under fi nancial pressure from their credit-card obligations tend to tip less when presented with a restaurant bill on a tray with a credit-card logo than when the tray has no logo. (C) In virtually all of the cases in the studies, the patrons who paid bills in cash did not possess credit cards. (D) In general, restaurant patrons who pay their bills in cash leave larger tips than do those who pay by credit card. (E) The percentage of restaurant bills paid with a given brand of credit card increases when that credit card’s logo is displayed on the tray with which the bill is presented.
再看选项:
(A) The effect noted in the studies is not limited to patrons who have credit cards. 排除了信用卡的影响,直接削弱了原命题逻辑链
(B) Patrons who are under financial pressure from their credit-card obligations tend to tip less when presented with a restaurant bill on a tray with a credit-card logo than when the tray has no logo. 证明了逻辑链的相互刺激作用,support
(C) In virtually all of the cases in the studies, the patrons who paid bills in cash did not possess credit cards. 都没有信用卡了——那还哪有logo对它的刺激呢?反正都没卡,就变一样的了。削弱。
(D) In general, restaurant patrons who pay their bills in cash leave larger tips than do those who pay by credit card.没有提到logo的刺激,无关。
(E) The percentage of restaurant bills paid with a given brand of credit card increases when that credit card’s logo is displayed on the tray with which the bill is presented.只是比例,不涉及绝对值large与否,排除。

我看og上说 A C D都是weaken 哪位nn能解释一下吗?
刚好也在搜这个题的解释就看到你的问题了,不是NN
但是我理解的OG的ACD削弱是这样的,
A 这个影响不限于有信用卡的客户-- 也就是说,信用卡这个关键信息对顾客付小费没什么影响了,因此就削弱了原文说的“有信用卡的顾客看到这个LOGO会多付钱”
C 说实际上所有付现金的顾客都没有信用卡 ---同上,也是把关键信息的作用直接忽略了,也就削弱原文了
D 说用现金付款的顾客比用信用卡付款的顾客给的小费多--这个很明显削弱了原文有信用卡会付更多的结论
