GWD-24-37. Fish currently costs about the same at seafood stores throughout Eastville and its surrounding suburbs. Seafood stores buy fish from the same wholesalers and at the same prices, and other business expenses have also been about the same. But new tax breaks will substantially lower the cost of doing business within the city. Therefore, in the future, profit margins will be higher at seafood stores within the city than at suburban seafood stores.
For the purposes of evaluating the argument, it would be most useful to know whether. (A)
more fish wholesalers are located within the city than in the surrounding suburbs. (B) Any people who currently own seafood stores in the suburbs surrounding Eastville will relocate their businesses nearer to the city (C) The wholesale price of fish is likely to fall in the future (D)
Fish has always cost about the same at seafood stores throughout Eastville and its surrounding suburbs. (E) Seafood stores within the city will in the future set prices that are lower than those at suburban seafood stores. 答案是E,我选D。 我的推理: 鱼在E市和郊区差不多价格,并且在两地的经营成本差不多。但是E市的经营成本将会显著减少,所以E市的卖鱼利润空间将会比郊区高。 For the purposes of evaluating the argument, it would be most useful to know whether: (D)在E市和郊区两地的鱼是否卖一样的价格。如果一样的话,根据条件,结论就成立。如果不一样,那么结论就被weaken
(E) Seafood stores within the city will in the future set prices that are lower than those at suburban seafood stores.
请问D为什么不对? |
