问题 The cost of producing radios in Country Q is ten percent less than the cost of producing radios in Country Y. Even after transportation fees and tariff charges are added, it is still cheaper for a company to import radios from Country Q to Country Y than to produce radios in Country Y. The statements above, if true, best support which of the following assertions?

选项 A、Labor costs in Country Q are ten percent below those in Country Y.
B、Importing radios from Country Q to Country Y will eliminate ten percent of the manufacturing jobs in Country Y.
C、The tariff on a radio imported from Country Q to Country Y is less than ten percent of the cost of manufacturing the radio in Country Y.
D、The fee for transporting a radio from Country Q to Country Y is more than ten percent of the cost of manufacturing the radio in Country Q.
E、It takes ten percent less time to manufacture a radio in Country Q than it does in Country Y.

答案 C

解析 如果对从Q国进口到Y国征收的关税等于或高于在Y国生产收音机的成本的10%,那么,同短文中所说的相反,从Q国进口收音机到Y国的成本将等于或高于在Y国生产收音机的成本。因此,关税不能有那么高,因此,(C)是正确答案;选项(A)和(E)给出了成本差异的可能的部分解释,但它们都没有得到短文的支持,因为Q国的成本优势可能归因于其他因素;选项(B)和(D)同文中提供的信息不矛盾,但是短文没有提供证据来支持它们。
