As a large corporation in a small country, Hachnut wants its managers to have international experience, so each year it sponsors management education abroad for its management trainees. Hachnut has found, however, that the attrition rate of graduates from this program is very high, with many of them leaving Hachnut to join competing firms soon after completing the program. Hachnut does use performance during the program as a criterion in deciding among candidates for management positions, but both this function and the goal of providing international experience could be achieved in other ways. Therefore, if the attrition problem cannot be successfully addressed, Hachnut should discontinue the sponsorship program.
In the argument given, the two boldfaced portions play which of the following roles?

<悦独>1、补充电影明星那篇,看了今天的悦独总结JJ,确认是06年的考古。 2、补充“商标”那篇题目,问加强:以下哪些选项可以加强测试结果?我选的是A.那些对creative商标表现出creative的那组人里面,在之前的一项分类中是least creative的人。(不一定正确,大家慎重参考,剩余的选项我没再仔细看了,对不住大家) 3、“社会进步”那篇补充,两段;第二段里有一部分讲的是人们有时只是倾向提出opposite当前情况的idea就认为是社会进步,但这不一定是对的。 4、"Culture and fishing"那篇,细节补充:第一段里提及有些学者认为fishing是可能确保一个部落的发展,因为fish中没有足够的卡路里,可是有人提出反驳,说这些学者忽略了fish里所含一种称为av(只记得这两个字母了)的物质,能够为部落人提供足够的能量,而且crop也是作为一种有益的supplement.所以fishing是可以确保一个部落的发展的。此处有考点,补充一题,作者would probably agree which of the following? LZ选的是:av中含有足够的卡路里能够为部落人提供所需能量。(可能选错了,大家考试仔细辨别),其余选项有一个比较干扰的是:crop plays a second important role in the establishment of the civilisation of the tribe(大意如此)。
<琢纹>一休: A powerful business leader has far more influence on the course of social community than the gouvernment official. 思路:1.business leader有更多的财富与社会资源,有大的作为与影响力。举例:比尔盖茨与其妻子建立的梅琳达基金会,研制疫苗,治疗非洲灾民;2.business leader是public figure,有话语权,说话更有分量。举例:比尔盖茨的演讲;Steven Jobs的演讲;沃伦巴菲特的晚宴;3.不能ignore政府领导人(官员)的影响力。举例:危急时刻,丘吉尔号召抗击Nazi的演说。 阿闺門: 地产商推荐人们买房子不要买股票,因为五年来该地区的平均房价高于股市的平均股价。且人们使用房子的同时房价也在升值,而股票没有此类优点。因此居民们应该投资房子。 思路:1.false analogy. 2.gratuitous assumption. 3.causal oversimplification. 4. vested interest.
