The Breton Symphony Orchestra board of directors and the musicians’ union are currently in contract negotiations. The musicians’ union is considering proposing a new contract that would demand the following: a 10% increase in musician salaries, the creation of a new financial bonus system for musicians who have been with the orchestra for at least six years, and a limit on the number of rehearsals per week.

The answer to which of the following questions is LEAST important in helping the union to determine whether the board will be inclined to accept the new contract proposal?

		Does the orchestra have the means to pay for a 10% increase in musician salaries?
		Are there comparable musicians not currently with the orchestra who would be willing to work under a less favorable contract?
		What percentage of the orchestra’s revenue is generated from ticket sales?
		What is the average duration of employment for Breton Symphony Orchestra musicians?
		Is the proposed limit on the number of rehearsals per week reasonable when compared with industry standards?

我选择B
A,C,E都只是以偏概全，而D则在文中没有提到，无关选项。

问题需要作两步简化：Step1: Least important ---> important;
                                  Step 2: important in helping union to determine ... 几乎等价于 important to the board to accept ...
问题简化为: The answer to which of the following quenstions is important to the board (to decide) to accept the new contract proposal? (注意：选出答案后，需要再做否定；因为简化后的问题是原问题否命题.)

A. important , 如果orchestra没有means肯定不行。
B. important, 如果有替代的musicians, board就不需要妥协
C. unimportant, 如果revenue很高就行了，至于revenue是来自于ticket sale or TV royalties or CD royalties, 并不重要。
D. important, 这个决定有多少musicans会享受新的bonus system.
E. important, 如果industry standard for the number of rehearsals很高，就没必要接受

对于简化后的问题答案是A，B，D， E
对于原问题答案是：C

同意C，无关选项。percentage of the orchestra’s revenue generated from ticket sales与contract negotiations没关系。
