Escalating worldwide demand for corn has led to a sharp increase in the market price of corn, and corn prices are likely to remain high. Corn is extensive used as feed for livestock, and because profit margins are tight in the livestock business, many farmers are expected to leave the business. With fewer suppliers, meat prices will surely rise. Nonetheless, observers expect an immediate short-term decrease in meat prices.

Which of the following, if true, most helps to justify the observers' expectation?

正确答案: B

Which of the following, if true, most helps to justify the observers’ expectation?



A.The increase in corn prices is due more to a decline in the supply of corn than to a growth in demand for it.

C.Some people who ate meat regularly in the past are converting to diets that include little or no meat.

D.As meat prices rise, the number of livestock producers is likely to rise again.

给你找到个解释,你看下

We shoudl find a reason for the observers expectation that their would be a decrese in meat price.

A. The increase in corn prices is due more to a decline in the supply of corn than to a growth in demand for it.(Corn is not observers are talking about)
B. Generally, farmers who are squeezed out of the livestock business send their livestock to market much earlier than they otherwise would.(Could be. b'coz if the farmers send their livestock early to the market, their would be more supply which will cause the decrese in prices)
C. Some people who ate meat regularly in the past are converting to diets that include little or no meat.(Out of scope)
D. As meat prices rise, the number of livestock producers is likely to rise again Observer is talking about price decrese
E. Livestock producers who stay in the business will start using feed other than corn more extensively than they did in the past.(The farmers investment on the livestock will increase or decrese. V dont know if the feeder being used it expensive than corn or not)

其实stimulus就是在说供求关系,因为demand增加所以价格增加了。但是现在有人说会有short term的 价格下降。那么能够造成价格下降的就是供应的增加。跟供应有关的只有B了

题干:corn涨价,meat提供者被挤出市场,提供减少供给,肉要涨价咯~(这不就是中国国情嘛)----砖家说,"最近"(注意这里说的是最近)肉要掉价(中国的专家都好去死了).

题目:哪个选项最好帮助专家圆谎~

B,因为,最近被挤出市场的人们,都会把自己家的猪提前卖了,好攒钱,聚集资金退出这个市场,开始房地产.
正因为是这样,所以,市场上的猪肉短时间就要供给增加,猪肉就要降价了呗.(不过,现实生活中,这是不能呢的.因为,我会全部买下来,供给增加的同时,人们看价钱低了,就会大量的买,这样猪肉还是要涨价了,你听到这里是不是觉得,这个答案又错了是吧.)
不管我信不信,你要真信了,这就错了.在GMAT考试里面,任何一个答案,你要像我这样瞎掰,都能成为正确答案,不过,考试的不能不停的按一个逻辑往下推,你推的超过2.3环节,你就自HIGH了,只能根据题目,做很短很短的一部推到.所以,我只能推到猪头减价,后面的推到不能进行了.

考试不要自high哦~~~加油.

啊哈,还是市场经济的逻辑嘛~看到题目说,价格短期跌,一种是需求少了,一种是供给多了。
C会减少需求,但是,没有那么快,而且也不是短期的,不可能今天喜欢吃玉米,然后下礼拜不喜欢吃了,最后下下礼拜又喜欢吃了吧……不可能这样来回突变的。
而B就可以满足暂时的市场的价格不稳定现象。

你好,我一点没懂就是,为什么农民要send their livestock to market much earlier than they otherwise would.反正都是抛售牲畜,和早晚有关系吗
