[討論]OG Passage33-business

[Huang Hsin-Yi]

212. The quotation in line 39 is most probably used to
(A) counter a position that the author of the passage believes is incorrect
(B) state a solution to a problem described in the previous sentence
(C) show how opponents of the viewpoint of the author of the passage have supported their arguments
(D) point out a paradox contained in a controversial viewpoint
(E) present a historical maxim(格言) to challenge the principle introduced in the third paragraph

答案是(A)

我當初做錯是因為我把句意誤以為是
去反對一個作者相信是錯的立場(經濟學家的立場)??
我認為你這樣翻是沒錯的,和下面那句話是一樣,和OG解釋的也一樣阿

如果是這樣 那這個選項就是錯的。
可是正確解讀應該為 去反對一個立場，而這個立場作者認為是錯的
以上兩種解讀有極大的差異
請問如何判別??(如果是"藍色部份的解讀"該如何寫呢?)
我糊塗了....

position that ....

這個that後面的子句是形容position的內容嗎?
如果是這樣 變成 這個position的內容是"作者相信錯的"
那麼counter這個position就變成是去反駁作者自己認為錯誤的立場。

舉例：
Mary takes the position that David believes is wrong.

"Mary的立場是-(大衛相信的是錯的)"
"Mary的立場大衛相信是錯的"

Ans:A

想請問一下為什麼B不行??她對前句話提出問題.....

原句定位: Some economists have suggested that giving away free shares would provide a needed acceleration of the privatization process．Yet they miss Thomas Paine's point that＂what we obtain too cheap we esteem too lightly".

208. It can be inferred from the passage that the author considers labor disruptions to be

(D) a phenomenon found more often in state-owned industries than in private companies

(E) a deterrence to high performance levels in an industry



選項 E 是答案我同意但是

請問一下 D 為何不行呢???

文章︰labor disruptions common in 1970's and early 1980's have now virtually disappeared



而1970's and early 1980's → stated-owned industries

now → privatization → private companies



照文章推論不就代表 labor disruptions 發生在 stated-owned industries 比 private companies 還要來的頻繁

那麼D為何不可???

這題跟cr是一樣的,文章內容只有提到British Ports有labor disruptions 的情況
不能自行推導stated-owned industries 有labor disruptions
因為 stated-owned industries可能有的有 有的沒有 labor disruptions
故d不可

"what we obtain too cheap we esteem too lightly."
括號內這句話是說Tom說人會不珍惜沒花成本而得到的東西
作者贊成這個說法
36行提到的經濟學者則忽略了這個說法認為應該再加快民營化的速度
所以 括號內的句子是用來反對作者相信是錯的立場<---這個是36行的經濟學者的看法
用藍色的就可以解讀了.....吧!?
