A product that represents a clear technological advance over competing products can generally command a high price. Because technological advances tend to be quickly surpassed and companies want to make large profits while they still can, many companies charge the maximum possible price for such a product. But large profits on the new product will give competitors a strong incentive to quickly match the new product's capabilities. Consequently, the strategy to maximize overall profit from a new product is to charge less than the greatest possible price.
In the argument above, the two portions in boldface play which of the following roles?
The first is a consideration that has been raised to argue that a certain strategy is counterproductive; the second presents that strategy.
The first is a consideration raised to support the strategy that the argument recommends; the second presents that strategy.
The first is a consideration raised to explain the appeal of a certain strategy; the second presents that strategy.
The first is an assumption, rejected by the argument, that has been used to justify a course of action; the second presents that course of action.
The first is a consideration that has been used to justify pursuing a goal that the argument rejects; the second presents a course of action that has been adopted in pursuit of that goal.
或者说文章reject的是定最高价的方式，而不是尽可能获利的这个goal
我选的E...选错了这道题，不得不说我觉得E错在reject这个情绪在文本中没有明确表示，不然感觉还挺好的...
至于B和C我个人认为，b错在他并不是一个consideration raised to support文章观点，因为1部分作为consideration，推理出来的观点一定是要定最高价，而不是定less最高价
a goal that the argument rejects是绝对错误了...看到绝对错误就没什么好犹豫的了！不用再纠结！
注意比较答案b和c，可以看出c更好，而且注意连接词but
啊看明白了，第一个黑脸部分是在解释现象，不是呈现策略， 最后黑脸部分才是呈现了这个唯一的策略
错选了E， E的问题在于’The first is a consideration that has been used to justify pursuing a goal that the argument rejects‘
the goal that the argument rejects， 作者本身没有拒绝这个goal
我看了一眼曼哈顿这个粗体字画错了。。。没看到正确版本。。。随便了
首先AE不对，这个策略/目标既不是无效的或者作者拒绝的；然后排除互相支持的说法BC，即note that the argument recommends a strategy (the second boldface) that contradicts what the businesses are doing in the first strategy. therefore, that consideration is not "support" for the strategy at all -- it's an inferior practice that the strategy actually contravenes. (notice that the follow-up statement starts with "But", emphasizing this contrast.)
本题选项设置较为微妙。
题目应该没错 https://www.manhattanprep.com/gmat/forums/a-product-that-represents-a-clear-technological-advance-t12085.html 参见ron解释
题目有误
虽然原文中有一个转折词BUT 但是其实总体的策略还是没有太大变化 都是先要最大化总体的profit
appeal 在这里应该作“诉求”
bond face错误
这道题的黑体部分划错了。第一个黑体应该在第一个逗号前截止。
黑体1Because technological advances tend to be quickly surpassed
黑体2many companies charge the maximum possible price for such a product.
这道题的黑体划错了
这段从consequently断开，其后讲了一个方案，前面则是这个方案出现的原因
我对这两句话的理解：1.因为科技进步很容易被超越，且公司总是趁着他们还算给力的时候追求利润的最大化，所以公司总是对他们的科技产品尽可能的要高价；2.所以，用于追求新产品整体利润的最大化的策略，就是定价定得比最高可能要价低一点。
开始我也觉得他们是对立关系，因为是采取了完全不同的策略。但读了n遍后我赶脚，第一句更像是呼吁一种解决方案的基本原因（因为公司总是要高价，所以需要解决这个问题），第二句就很好地提出了这个解决方案。B说第一句是直接支持了最后提出的策略，“公司总是要高价“”如何直接支持最后提出的“少要价”策略？个人想法，如有误导请轻喷: ）
这两句话不是相互支持的关系，有but表示前后的转折。explain the appeal of a certain strategy， ron说如果能说明另一个策略劣势也可以。还是不明白。
就是黑1是用来说明黑2的优势的，或者黑 1是用来说明自身劣势的。
那么a和d是一个意思吗都是加强，因为有了but就不是加强，难道是套路吗。。。

如果C正确的话，B错在什么地方？感觉好微妙
