Shelby Industries manufactures and sells the same gauges as Jones Industries. Employee wages account for forty percent of the cost of manufacturing gauges at both Shelby Industries and Jones Industries. Shelby Industries is seeking a competitive advantage over Jones Industries. Therefore, to promote this end, Shelby Industries should lower employee wages. Which of the following, if true, would most weaken the argument above?
选项
A、Because they make a small number of precision instruments, gauge manufacturers cannot receive volume discounts on raw materials.
B、Lowering wages would reduce the quality of employee work, and this reduced quality would lead to lowered sales.
C、Jones Industries has taken away twenty percent of Shelby Industries business over the last year.
D、Shelby Industries pays its employees, on average, ten percent more than does Jones Industries.
E、Many people who work for manufacturing plants live in areas in which the manufacturing plant they work for is the only industry.
答案
B
解析
本题读题重点为最后一句话,属于“就目的提方法”的“B,A”推理模式,反对思路要么为A不可行或无意义;或者除A之外还有别的因素影响B。根据选项(B),降低工资的效果是充分降低质量从而降低销量,这是一个很好的理由来怀疑工资减少会给Shelby企业带来任何竞争优势 因此,(B)是正确答案。一些其他选项提供了支持,而不是反对降低工资的很好的理由。选项(A)暗示不可能降低原材料成本;选项(D)指出Shelby企业的工资相对较高;选项(E)指出如果Shelby企业降低工资,它不会失去很多工人;选项(C)给出了一个理由让Shelby企业去关注它的竞争地位,但没有给出削减工资将不会改善这种地位的理由。
