prep1-77 困惑中

Which of the following most logically completes the argument below?

 

Twenty percent of the stores in Morganville's downtown shopping district will fail within five years because they will be competing directly with the SaveMart discount department store newly opened in East Morganville.  The downtown shopping district has lost business at this rate before and has always completely rebounded.  Confidence that it will rebound again from the losses it is now about to suffer is ill founded, however, because __________.

 

A. the stores likely to be put out of business by direct competition from SaveMart are the downtown shopping district's anchor stores, on whose ability to draw shoppers many of the other downtown stores depend

 

B. the bus line that has long connected the downtown area of Morganville with East Morganville has a tradition of carrying shoppers who reside in East Morganville into downtown Morganville to shop

 

C. when the downtown shopping district has rebounded before, the business premises of a failed business were typically taken over by a business of the same kind as had been there before

 

D. SaveMart's business plan for the East Morganville store is based on earning low profits, if any, during the first five years of the store's existence

 

E. it is conceivable that the downtown shopping district could shrink substantially without collapsing altogether

 

答案选A，我选C。

当时选择C的时候确实觉得有点问题，因为题目并没有说是哪些商店受到了亏损，也没有提到关于type的问题。但是对于A也是很困惑。

 

A的意思是说只有那些酒厂才能够从亏损中恢复过来吗？那些酒厂有能力从别的商店将顾客吸引过来。

但是题目有和过去做比较，说过去可以恢复，但现在不可以恢复了，而A选项没有说明过去啊。

 

困惑！请指教！

把题目翻译下:

 

Morganville商业闹市区商店街中的20%的商店将在未来的5年内遭受失败，因为它们将会与在Morganville东部新开的一个名叫SaveMart的折扣百货店直接竞争。商店街之前也有过类似比率的生意下滑并且（下滑后）又完全的恢复过来。但是，关于商店街能够在此次即将遭受的生意下滑中恢复过来的信心是缺乏根据的，因为：

 

A 在此次与SaveMart竞争中可能被灭掉的是商业闹市区商店街中的主力店，而商店街别的商店正是依靠这些主力店吸引顾客的。

B 长期连接Morganville东部与Morganville商业闹市区的公共汽车路线一直有将居住在东部的顾客载到商业闹市区购物的传统。

C 在之前商店街经济恢复的时候，那些被灭掉的商店的商店住所往往被之前就已经存在的同类商店所接手。

D SaveMart在东部的商业计划是基于在其开业前5年的低利润理念。

E 比较可信的一个观点是：商业闹市区可能被充分的压缩而不是全部消失

 

这个题目选择A是毋庸置疑的，因为只有A对商店街能够恢复提供了有效的质疑。

多说两句吧，其实如果把题目写成中文，逻辑题是非常简单的，只不过我们需要读准

这个题目里面有些比较特殊的词汇需要知道的：

 

Anchor store的意思不是酒店，而是 主力店

A选项后面的那个从句的意思 也不是 那些酒厂有能力从别的商店将顾客吸引过来 而是别的商店要依靠这些主力店的力量来吸引顾客

business premises的意思是 商店住所， C选项本身和商店种类没关系，只是说同样的住所往往被同类商店替代

 

作逻辑题目的时候 文章的意思一定要读准确，否则就会觉得选项很绕

A的意思是，这次崩溃的是M城的主力店铺，就是这些店铺抢了外城店铺的生意（间接暗示了以前被打击的是小店铺）。如果主力店铺崩溃了，那么M也没得玩了，主心骨给抽了，所以不能再rebound了。

C. when the downtown shopping district has rebounded before, the

business premises of a failed business were typically taken over by a

business of the same kind as had been there before

当那些中心购物地区再次恢复营业时，从亏损中恢复营业的前提是亏损店铺是被以前

就一直在同地区相同类型的行业所接管。

翻译的不好，请指正

 A 是说以前生意没了，district's anchor stores 可以从其他地方抢生意，所以可以反弹。

 district's anchor stores, on whose ability to draw shoppers many of the other downtown stores depend

A. the stores likely to be put out of business by direct competition from SaveMart are the downtown shopping district's anchor stores, on whose ability to draw shoppers many of the other downtown stores depend

请问LS GG, 这不是说 anchor store 会失去竞争力么？而那个whose ability to draw shoppers many of the other downtown stores depend 只是修饰了这个stores 了一下。。。

还是偶得理解有问题，请指点!

A的理解如下：以前有市中心店铺关门但是类似旗舰的大店没倒，这种旗舰店能把大量顾客吸引回来，所以以前其他关门店铺能陆续再开张回复元气，但是这次这些能吸引大量顾客的大店要关门了（因为SaveMarket的竞争）。
