一道boldface,不知出处

Business Consultant: Some corporations shun the use of executive titles because they fear that the use of titles indicating position in the corporation tends to inhibit communication up and down the corporate hierarchy. Since an executive who uses a title is treated with more respect by outsiders, however, use of a title can facilitate an executive’s dealings with external businesses. The obvious compromise is for these executives to use their corporate titles externally but not internally, since even if it is widely known that the corporation’s executives use executive titles outside their organization, this knowledge does not by itself inhibit communication within the corporation.



In the consultant’s reasoning, the two portions in boldface play which of the following roles?



A. The first presents an obstacle to achieving a certain goal; the second presents a reason for considering that goal to be undesirable.
B. The first is a consideration that has led to the adoption of a certain strategy; the second presents a reason against adopting that strategy.
C. The first describes a concern that the consultant dismisses as insignificant; the second is a consideration that serves as the basis for that dismissal.
D. The first is a belief for which the consultant offers support; the second is part of  that support.
E. The first is a belief against which evidence is offered; the second is part of the evidence offered against that belief.


这题我不知道出处,答案选B,我选C。

B中的a certain strategy应该指The obvious compromise ,第一,第二应该都是spport,所以不对。C比较有道理,你们觉得呢?

B,

第一句中的a certain strategy是Some corporations shun the use of executive titles;

第二句说use of executive titles的好处,所以是against adopting that strategy。

这道题在版上详细讨论过的,可惜我忘了题目是什么了。我也倾向于选B,总觉得它更贴切。

另外问一下,consideration和reason含义有什么区别?

谢谢两位,我想consideration应该是一种主观的想法、担心之类的东西;reason可以是客观事实,也可以是主观想法。这只是我朦胧的感觉,不对不要拍砖。

另外我还想问问,选项中的抽象词如何与题干中的具体内容对应呢?象这题的a certain strategy,如何判断它指Some corporations shun the use of executive titles,还是a obvious compromise? 请继续指教!
