19. People who receive unsolicited advice from someone whose advantage would be served if that advice is taken should regard the proffered advice with skepticism unless there is good reason to think that their interests substantially coincide with those of the advice giver in the circumstance in question.

This principle, if accepted, would justify which one of the following judgments?

(A) After learning by chance that Harriet is Looking for a secure investment for her retirement savings. Floyd writes to her recommending the R&M Company as an especially secure investment. But since Floyd is the sole owner of R&M, Harrier should reject his advice out of hand and invest the savings elsewhere.

(B) While shopping for a refrigerator. Ramon is approached by a salesperson who, on the basis of her personal experience, warns him against the least expensive model. However, the salesperson's commission increases with the price of the refrigerator sold, so Ramon should not reject the least expensive model on the salesperson's advice alone
答案是b，我在a, b只见权衡了半天还是选了a ,其他答案我就不写出来烦大家了。大家帮忙分析一下a和b 的区别。三克油！

A错。
原题说：如果某个人的建议对提建议的人有好处，你得怀疑这个建议(但不是拒绝)。除非这个建议确实对你有好处。

A说了这个建议对提建议的人确实有好处，所以应该拒绝。。原文只是说怀疑，所以不一样。

C错在和原文的unsolicited advice不一致。。这个advice 不是 unsolicited advice

D错在这个建议对Ron 也有好处，因为他是作者。和原文的unless不符

E错在信息不能从原文中给出。。E说某建议如果对提建议的人没好处，应该听取。原文无法推出

B：
销售人员建议我不要买便宜商品。这个建议当然对销售人员有好处。而对我没好处。那我当然要怀疑这个建议了(但没有拒绝)--即B结论： should not reject the least expensive model on the salesperson's advice alone.

油啊屋砍

看来做逻辑确实要字斟句酌。多谢
