今日练习题为逻辑题,题目如下:
Hollywood restaurant is replacing some of its standard tables with tall tables and stools. The restaurant already fills every available seat during its operating hours, and the change in seating arrangements will not result in an increase in the restaurant's seating capacity. Nonetheless, the restaurant's management expects revenue to increase as a result of the seating change without any concurrent change in menu, prices or operating hours.
Which of the following, if true, provides the best reason for the expectation?
A One of the taller tables takes up less floor space than one of the standard tables.
B Diners seated on stools typically do not linger over dinner as long as diners seated at standard tables.
C Since the restaurant will replace only some of its standard tables, it can continue to accommodate customers who do not care for the taller tables.
D Few diners are likely to avoid the restaurant because of the new seating arrangement.
E The standard tables being replaced by tall tables would otherwise have to be replaced with new standard tables at a greater expense.
正确答案:
B
文章翻译:
好莱坞的酒店把一些标准的桌子换成高的桌子和凳子。酒店在他开张的时候就已经充分使用了所用的空间放凳子,换桌子并不能增加酒店顾客的承载能力。然而,酒店经理预计换桌子的安排会带来利润的增加,并且在菜单,价位以及营业时间上并不会做出任何改变。
选项翻译:
Which of the following, if true, provide the best reason for the expectation?
以下哪一项,如果成立的话,可以解释这种预期?
(A) One of the taller tables takes up less floor space than one of the standard tables.
高的桌子比标准的桌子占地空间少。
(B) Diner seated on stools typically do not linger over dinner as long as diners seated at standard tables.
在新的桌子上吃饭的人逗留的时间并不像在标准的桌子上吃饭的人逗留的时间那么长。
(C) Since the restaurant will replace only some of its standard tables, it can continue to accommodate customers who do not care for the taller tables.
因为酒店并不是把所有的标准桌子都换成高桌子,一些不喜欢做高桌子的客人依然可以来吃饭。
(D) Few diners are likely to avoid the restaurant because of the new seating arrangement.
很少有客人会因为新的座位安排而不来吃饭。
(E) The standard tables being replaced by tall tables would otherwise have to be replaced with new standard tables at a greater expense.
高桌子替代了那些原本要花更多钱换成新的标准桌子的酒桌子。
选项解析:
这是一道解释题,解释为什么酒店经理认为换成高的桌子会带来利润的增加。
A 文章已经说了换桌子并不能增加酒店顾客的承载能力,所以即便新的桌子占地空间小,也不能解释为什么利润一定会增加。
B 在新桌子上逗留的时间短,意味着饭桌率高,也就是说一定时间内在新桌子上吃饭的客人比在标准桌子上吃饭的客人要多,从而解释力利润为什么增加。是正确答案。
C 这只能说酒店可以维持原来的顾客,并不能解释为什么利润会增加。
D 也只能说明客人不会减少,不能解释利润为什么会增加。
E 只能说明花费方面节省了,并不能说明为什么未来会带来利润。
