Editorial:

Regulations recently imposed by the government of Risemia call for unprecedented reductions in the amounts of pollutants manufacturers are allowed to discharge into the environment. It will take costly new pollution control equipment requiring expensive maintenance to comply with these regulations. Resultant price increases for Risemian manufactured goods will lead to the loss of some export markets. Clearly, therefore, annual exports of Risemian manufactured goods will in the future occur at diminished levels.

Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument in the editorial?

(A) The need to comply with the new regulations will stimulate the development within Risemia of new pollution control equipment for which a strong worldwide demand is likely to emerge.
(B) The proposed regulations include a schedule of fines for noncompliance that escalate steeply in cases of repeated noncompliance.
(C) Savings from utilizing the chemicals captured by the pollution control equipment will remain far below the cost of maintaining the equipment.
(D) By international standards, the levels of pollutants currently emitted by some of Risemia's manufacturing plants are not considered excessive.
(E) The stockholders of most of Risemia's manufacturing corporations exert substantial pressure on the corporations to comply with environmental laws.

Ans: A

A說:為了符合規定所研發的新設備將會受世界需要
所以題目的goods就是指這個設備嗎?

我選了C: 節省下來使用化學的成本比維修設備還貴,所以成本變高,support題目,是嗎?

對,你講的都對
有問題嗎?

R政府推行一個法案.要求製造者減少汙染物排放量至前所未有的境界
It will take costly new pollution control equipment requiring expensive maintenance to comply with these regulations.
爲了符合法規.需要採用新的污染控制裝置.造成製造者需要負擔昂貴的裝置維修費用
Resultant price increases for Risemian manufactured goods will lead to the loss of some export markets.
於是R製造的成品價格上揚.進而失去了出口市場
Clearly, therefore, annual exports of Risemian manufactured goods will in the future occur at diminished levels.
顯而易見的.R的出口市場未來將會式微.
