问题 The author mentions each of the following as a cause of excess inventory EXCEPT______ [br] By asserting that manufacturers “are simply unaware” (line 31), the author suggests which of the following?
选项 A、Manufacturers might donate excess inventory to charity rather than dump it if they knew about the provision in the federal tax code.
B、The federal government has failed to provide sufficient encouragement to manufacturers to make use of advantageous tax policies.
C、Manufacturers who choose to dump excess inventory are not aware of the possible effects on their reputation of media coverage of such dumping.
D、The manufacturers of products disposed of by dumping are unaware of the needs of those people who would find the products useful.
E、The manufacturers who dump their excess inventory are not familiar with the employment of liquidators to dispose of overstock.
答案 A
解析 The best answer is A. Lines 30-31 state: “The managers of these companies are not deliberately wasteful; they are simply unaware of all their alternatives.” The single such “alternative” identified is one encouraged by “an above-cost federal tax deduction for companies that donate inventory to charity.” By stating that the manufacturers ‘are simply unaware” of this more cost-saving alternative, the author suggests that, if aware of the provision, they might choose inventory-donation over inventory-dumping. Nowhere does the author suggest that the government “failed to provide sufficient encouragement” for donation (choice B), or that the manufacturers were unaware in the ways described by C, D, or E.
