Q8:

Which of the following most logically completes the passage?

Garnet and RenCo each provide health care for their employees.  Garnet pays for both testing of its employees’ cholesterol levels and treatment of high cholesterol.  This policy saves Garnet money, since high cholesterol left untreated for many years leads to conditions that require very expensive treatment.  However, RenCo dose not have the same financial incentive to adopt such a policy, because ______.

A.     early treatment of high cholesterol dose not entirely eliminate the possibility of a stroke later in life这是identical choice,无关

B.     the mass media regularly feature stories encouraging people to maintain diets that are low in cholesterol这是identical choice,无关

C.     RenCo has significantly more employees than Garnet has无关

D.     RenCo’s employees are unlikely to have higher cholesterol levels than Garnet’s employees

E.      the average length of time an employee stays with RenCo is less than it is with Garnet

答案是E  我选了D  D也可以解释为何R不采用相同的办法

我错在哪里

谢谢

D, "RenCo’s employees are unlikely to have higher cholesterol levels than Garnet’s employees" could mean that "R's employees have similar cholesterol levels than G's employees".  If so, R could still benefit by adopting a policy similar to G.

Robert , thank you very much. I got it now.

请问A为什么不对？如果说

The policy saves Garnet money, 因为如果不早点治疗，以后会要很贵的治疗since high cholesterol left untreated for many years leads to conditions that require very expensive treatment.  

但是如果 RenCo说， 即使早期治疗了， 也不能排除以后复发的可能， 所以我们公司就不早期治疗，还多花钱，早晚治疗都一样的

这不也是一个解释没有incentive的原因吗？

哪位nn能解释一下呢？

I think the passage doesn't mention "a stroke "

so you don't know the relationship between "high cholesterol" and"a stroke "

this is only my personal opinion!!

我觉得D的意思是R公司的人不太可能比G 公司的人，有更高的胆固醇level. 并不是说R 公司的人不可能有高胆固醇level. 请指正，不只对否。

有人可以解释吗？

A肯定不对啦

early treatment of high cholesterol dose not entirely eliminate the possibility of a stroke later in life

作用“不完全”和作用“很大”并不矛盾

D也肯定不对

RenCo dose not have the same financial incentive to adopt such a policy, because    RenCo’s employees are unlikely to have higher cholesterol levels than Garnet’s employees

现象和原因的主语不同

打个比方“天下雨是因为我想要它下雨”逻辑肯定不对

如果加个前提“RenCo’s employees 决定RenCo的政策”那就对了

以下是引用robertchu在2004-9-19 2:06:00的发言：

THANK YOU。

A.B可以直接排除的重要原因还有，结论是R不象G那样……，则这两者必须在答案里同时出现。象AB那样只是说一个想象一般会对R和G同时有效
