23. Mr.Blatt: Expert consultants are sought after by management because they help executives make better decisions. That is why they are worth the substantial fees they charge. Ms. Fring: Nonsense. Expert consultants are hired in order to enable executives to avoid responsibility. The more the experts cost, the more they can be blamed when things go wrong.

Which one of the following, if it occurred, would be the strongest evidence favoring Ms.Fring's position over Mr. Blatt's position? (A) A company that is trying to decide whether to move its manufacturing plant hires an expensive expert to conduct a cost/benefit analysis. (B) Two competing companies faced with very similar problems adopt different solutions. (C) A successful firm of expert consultants seeks to increase its volume of business by reducing its fees, but its volume of business drops. (D) An expert consultant builds up a successful business by charging clients a substantial percentage of the amount an independent assessor judges that the consultant saved the company. (E) A company follows a consultant's advice to open two new stores, but both stores are only marginally profitable at first.

答案是ｃ但是ｃ和原文有什么联系？没看出来

1。该题用排除法也可找到答案C，因为ABDE符合Blatt说的情况

2。理解答案C关键理解Fring的最后一句话：收费越高，事情做不好时受责备越少。所以收费越低，做不好时受责备越小（即责任越小）。如果如C所说，降低收费，则它的责任越小，谁愿意请责任小的consultant，所以才会生意越少。所以C符合Fring最后一句话的意思。所以是Fring的话的最好证据。

我真的不知道您是如何翻译出来的，

但是我承认，有时候读不懂题目或者选项是做题错误的元凶~！

能讲一讲其它选项吗？

不要说是无关选项啊！（否则C恐怕也是无关了）
