[版主一定要帮偶解决啊！]大全-2-17/大全-2-18

Questions 17-18 are based on the following.

Professor A: We must make a strong moral statement against Country X’s policies. Only total divestment—the sale of all stock in companies that have factories or business offices in X—can do this. Therefore, the university should divest totally.

Professor B: Our aim should be to encourage X to change its policies. Partial divestment is the best way to achieve this aim. Therefore, the university should sell its stock only in companies that either sell goods to X’s government, or do the majority of their business in X, or treat their workers in X unfairly.

17.         Professor A’s and Professor B’s arguments differ in which of the following ways?

(A) They state the same goal but propose different ways of achieving it.

(B) They state different goals but propose the same way of achieving them.

(C) They state different goals and propose different ways of achieving them.

(D) They disagree about whether the university should sell any stock at all.（C）

(E) They disagree about whether X’s policies are objectionable.

18.         Which of the following, if true, would be evidence that the university would not be harmed economically if it followed Professor A’s recommendation.

(A) Very few of the companies in which the university owns stocks sell goods to X’s government.

(B) Most companies that have factories or business offices in X and in which the university owns stock actually do little of their business in X.

(C) Some companies that have factories or business offices in X and in which the university owns stock have instituted fair treatment policies for their workers in X at very little additional cost to the companies.

(D) The expected financial return to the university from stocks that the university could own under a policy of total divestment is approximately the same as the expected financial return from the same as the expected financial.（D）

(E) If the university sold large blocks of stock under a policy of total divestment, the prices of the stocks of the companies whose stocks were sold would probably decrease somewhat.

谢谢weiyu，可是偶还是看不懂题目，特别是divestment 是什么意思？Only total divestment—the sale of all stock in companies that have factories or business offices in X—can do this－do what? It would be greatly appreciated if you could explain what Prof. A said in Chinese!

weiyu

divest就是抛光

    divestment=disinvestment= the process of taking your money out of a company by selling your shares in it

    ETS怕我们不懂，还特地在破折号好解释了

    A说：我们要用很强的道德言论来反对X国的政策。只有完全收回成本（divestment)—卖光所有在X国有工厂或办公室的公司的股票—才能实现这个目标（反对X国的政策）。因此，大学应该完全divestment

    B说：我们的目标是促使X国改变其政策，部分的抛售股票才是最好的能达到我们目的（促使X国改变其政策）的方法，因此，大学应该卖掉它持有的那些公司的股票：这些公司是或者卖物品给X国政府的公司，或者是在X国开展大量商务的公司，或者是不公平对待它们在X国的员工的公司

    看懂文章，题目很简单

    1。A，B不同点：目标不同，方法也不同

     2。若遵从A教授的建议，以下哪个能保证大学不受经济损失：D说卖出所有股票和预期的财政收入一致（因此没经济损失），A，B，C，E是无关选项，其中A，B，C讨论指向是B教授的话，一看就排除。
