61【森林BF题】
Rubber tape 橡胶带
by sirenfish
还有一道关于森林的，说公司购买了rain forest来做ranch啥的，却没有开展rubber tapping业务，但其实rubber tapping其实有更大利润，还能保持森林intact。所以some environmentalists说这公司还不是太逐利的。这些environmentalist是错的。因为政府怎样怎样，finally，rubber tapping在product税上比ranch的要高。
GWD3-Q16:
Economist:Tropicorp, which constantly seeks profitable investment opportunities, has been buying and clearing sections of tropical forest for cattle ranching, although pastures newly created there become useless for grazing after just a few years.The company has not gone into rubber tapping, even though greater profits can be made from rubber tapping, which leaves the forest intact.Thus, some environmentalists conclude that Tropicorp has not acted wholly out of economic self-interest.However, these environmentalists are probably wrong.The initial investment required for a successful rubber-tapping operation is larger than that needed for a cattle ranch.Furthermore, there is a shortage of workers employable in rubber-tapping operations, and finally, taxes are higher on profits from rubber tapping than on profits from cattle ranching.
In the economist’s argument, the two boldfaced portions play which of the following roles?
A.The first supports the conclusion of the economist’s argument; the second calls that conclusion into question.
B.The first states the conclusion of the economist’s argument; the second supports that conclusion.
C.The first supports the environmentalists’ conclusion; the second states that conclusion.
D.The first states the environmentalists’ conclusion; the second states the conclusion of the economist’s argument.
E.Each supports the conclusion of the economist’s argument.
