Arecentspate of launching and operating mishaps with television satellites led to a corresponding surge in claims against companies underwriting satellite insurance. As a result, insurance premiums shot up, making satellites more expensive to launch and operate. This, in turn, had added to the pressure to squeeze more performance out of currently operating satellites.

Which of the following, if true, taken together with the information above, best supports the conclusion that the cost of television satellites will continue to increase?

(A) Since the risk to insurers of satellites is spread over relatively few units, insurance premiums are necessarily very high.

(B) When satellites reach orbit and then fail, the causes of failure are generally impossible to pinpoint with confidence.

(C) The greater the performance demands placed on satellites,the more frequently those satellites break down.

(D) Most satellites are produced in such small numbers that no economies of scale can be realized.

(E) Since many satellites are built by unwieldy international consortia, inefficiencies are inevitable.

答案是C
想請問A和D的翻譯  感謝

A：因为要投保的卫星数量少，所要交的保费就很高
D：所生产的卫星数量太少以至于不能实现规模经济

本题思路：卫星坏导致针对买保险的公司的反对呼声高，反对呼声高了导致保费贵，保费贵了导致发射卫星的成本更高，发射成本高了导致单个卫星的使用强度更大，使用强度大了导致卫星更容易坏。。。。。。。。。。。
循环往复。。。。。

谢谢,明白了~
