97. Delta Products Inc. has recently switched at least partly from older technologies using fossil fuels to
new technologies powered by electricity. The question has been raised whether it can be concluded that for a given level of output Delta’s operation now causes less fossil fuel to be consumed than it did
formerly. The answer, clearly, is yes, since the amount of fossil fuel used to generate the electricity needed to
power the new technologies is less than the amount needed to power the older technologies, provided level of
output is held constant.
In the argument given, the two boldfaced portions play which of the following roles?
(A) The fi rst identifi es the content of the conclusion of the argument; the second provides support for that conclusion.
(B) The fi rst provides support for the conclusion of the argument; the second identifi es the content of that conclusion.
(C) The fi rst states the conclusion of the argument; the second calls that conclusion into question.
(D) The fi rst provides support for the conclusion of the argument; the second calls that conclusion into question.
(E) Each provides support for the conclusion of the argument.
(D) The rst provides support for the conclusion of the argument; the second calls that conclusion into question

另外 我感觉这个第二个boldface 就是结论~那这个B里面 identify the content of that conclusion 是不是就是指 第二个boldface是结论。。。只不过迷惑我们。。求NN解答。。作者: yidiyuehans 时间: 2011-5-19 21:30
楼上提的问题我也迷惑了
我觉得 whether it can be concluded that for a given level of output Delta’s operation now causes less fossil fuel to be consumed than it did formerly. The answer, clearly, is yes. 是结论
for a given level of output Delta’s operation now causes less fossil fuel to be consumed than it did formerly 是结论的内容
额。。。有点混乱了

弱弱的问...结论和结论的内容有区别吗?
