Radio stations with radio data system (RDS) technology broadcast special program information that only radios with an RDS feature can receive.Between 1994 and 1996, the number of RDS radio stations in Verdland increased from 250 to 600.However, since the number of RDS-equipped radios in Verdland was about the same in 1996 as in 1994, the number of Verdlanders receiving the special program information probably did not increase significantly.
Which of the following is an assumption on which the argument depends?
(A) Few if any of the RDS radio stations that began broadcasting in Verdland after 1994 broadcast to people with RDS-equipped radios living in areas not previously reached by RDS stations. (B) In 1996 most Verdlanders who lived within the listening area of an RDS station already had a radio equipped to receive RDS. (C) Equipping a radio station with RDS technology does not decrease the station's listening area. (D) In 1996 Verdlanders who did not own radios equipped to receive RDS could not receive any programming from the RDS radio stations that began broadcasting in Verdland after 1994.
(E) The RDS radio stations in Verdland in 1996 did not all offer the same type of programming.
能帮我翻译一下A选项吗 15.(25986-!-item-!-188;#058&002914)
Some airlines allegedly reduce fares on certain routes to a level at which they lose money, in order to drive competitors off those routes.However, this method of eliminating competition cannot be profitable in the long run.Once an airline successfully implements this method, any attempt to recoup the earlier losses by charging high fares on that route for an extended period would only provide competitors with a better opportunity to undercut the airline's fares.
Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument?
(A) In some countries it is not illegal for a company to drive away competitors by selling a product below cost.
(B) Airline executives generally believe that a company that once underpriced its fares to drive away competitors is very likely to do so again if new competitors emerge. (C) As part of promotions designed to attract new customers, airlines sometimes reduce their ticket prices to below an economically sustainable level.
(D) On deciding to stop serving particular routes, most airlines shift resources to other routes rather than reduce the size of their operations. (E) When airlines dramatically reduce their fares on a particular route, the total number of air passengers on that route increases greatly. 题能看懂,但觉得五个选项都不对 求解答~ |
