今晚刚做了GWD第一套，

这篇文章出在35－37题的位置上，确实杀伤力很大，尤以Q37为甚。

感觉D和E都很有道理。

如果按照OG的路子，according to题目，应该是原文提到的，那么答案应该是D，

如果题目问suggest或者infer，答案E就很好，而且排除了D中可能对relationship的多余想象。

另外，这篇文章第一段太重要了，第二段虽然是清楚地列出四种情况，但是远比第一段中的抽象叙述更难记忆。

Which of the following can be inferred about supplier partnerships, as they are described in the passage?

Which of the following can be inferred about supplier partnerships, as they are described in the passage?

B.They can result in purchasers paying more for goods and services than they would in a competitive-bidding situation.

怎么会是more呢??明明supplier partnerships是帮purchaser省钱了啊。。。。越看越糊涂了，谁能解释一下呢？？

which

can inappropriately shelter suppliers

from rigorous competitive scrutiny

 (15)      that might afford the purchaser

economic leverage

I agree with D.

busness operation 和 end product 的意义还是差很多的。

一点愚见：37D中提到：to the purchasing company's end product.

这里好像有混淆概念的目的：end product 应该是 suppliers' 与 purchasing company's没有什么关系吧。

欢迎继续讨论。

PS:一开始也选了D，后来看了答案，和TEAM PARTNER一起讨论出来的

以下是引用ring_cheng在2005-5-17 18:22:00的发言：

这是我对各题的理解，欢迎讨论：

GWD-1-Q35:

Which of the following best describes the relation of the second paragraph to the first?              

1. The second paragraph offers proof of an assertion made in the first paragraph. —>1P没有assertion，只是说明现实情况以及提出两种变量
2. The second paragraph provides an explanation for the occurrence of a situation described in the first paragraph.
                   —>是describe两种变量组合可以形成的不同采购策略，并非explanation
   
   

3. The second paragraph discusses the application of a strategy proposed in the first paragraph. —>a strategy 是泛指采购策略，并非特指competitive scrutiny 或是partnership。 application是指不同组合采用（应用）不同的采购策略

4. The second paragraph examines the scope of a problem presented in the first paragraph. —>第一段说partnership采购有问题，但2P没有论述其范围。

5. The second paragraph discusses the contradictions inherent in a relationship described in the first paragraph.
                   —>1P举出两种采购方式，并没有说这两种方式有矛盾

(C)

GWD-1-Q36:

Which of the following can be inferred about supplier partnerships, as they are described in the passage?
                          

1. They cannot be sustained unless the goods or services provided are available from a large number of suppliers. —>没有充分必要性

2. They can result in purchasers paying more for goods and services than they would in a competitive-bidding situation.
                       —>L12-16 紧贴原文意思

3. They typically are instituted at the urging of the supplier rather than the purchaser. —>文章中没说

4. They are not feasible when the goods or services provided are directly related to the purchasers’ end products. —>没有when的充分必要性

5. They are least appropriate when the purchasers’ ability to change suppliers is limited. —>最高级不妥

(B)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

GWD-1-Q37:

According to the passage, which of the following factors distinguishes an indirect purchase from other purchases?

1. The ability of the purchasing company to subject potential suppliers of the purchased item to competitive scrutiny —>与能力无关

2. The number of suppliers of the purchased item available to the purchasing company
   
   

3. The methods of negotiation that are available to the purchasing company
   
   

4. The relationship of the purchased item to the purchasing company’s end product
                   —>原文的对比取非（直接采购是与最终商品联系，非直接采购是辅助性项目采观）

5. The degree of importance of the purchased item in the purchasing company’s business operations —>太过引申原文内容（过犹不及）你凭什么说直接采购就是重要的或是不重要的，原文并没有给出相关信息来判断

（D）
