A prominent investor who holds a large stake in the Burton Tool Company has recently claimed that the company is mismanaged, citing as evidence the company's failure to slow production in response to a recent rise in its inventory of finished products. It is doubtful whether an investor's sniping at management can ever be anything other than counterproductive, but in this case it is clearly not justified. It is true that an increased inventory of finished products often indicates that production is outstripping demand, but in Burton's case it indicates no such thing. Rather, the increase in inventory is entirely attributable to products that have already been assigned to orders received from customers.
In the argument given, the two boldfaced portions play which of the following roles?
The first states the position that the argument as a whole opposes; the second provides evidence to undermine the support for the position being opposed.
The first states the position that the argument as a whole opposes; the second is evidence that has been used to support the position being opposed.
The first states the position that the argument as a whole opposes; the second states the conclusion of the argument as a whole.
The first is evidence that has been used to support a position that the argument as a whole opposes; the second provides information to undermine the force of that evidence.
The first is evidence that has been used to support a position that the argument as a whole opposes; the second states the conclusion of the argument as a whole.
情景：略
推理：第一个黑体字是表明了一个结论。第二个黑体字其实是另外一个结论，只不过这两个结论是相反的。
选题方式：略
选项分析：
A选项：第一个黑体字是论证所反对的观点；第二个黑体字提供论据去削弱反对的观点。第二个黑体字是论证的中心论点。
B选项：第一个黑体字是论证反对的观点；第二个黑字体提供论据支持反对观点。第二个黑体字是论证的中心论点。
C选项：Correct. 第一个黑体字是论证反对的观点；第二个黑字体是总结论。
D选项：第一个黑体字提供了一个证据支持论证反对观点；第二句提供了削弱这个证据的信息。两个黑体字分别是两个结论，不是证据。
E选项：第一个黑体字提供了一个支持论证反对的观点的证据；第二个黑字体是总结论。第一个黑体字是一个结论。
黑体1：the company is mismanaged 黑体2: but in this case it is clearly not justified 两个都是观点，因此排除ABDE（提及黑体1为证据 OR 黑体2为证据）
感觉选项好绕。。。明明看懂题了结果不知道选项说的啥意思。。。
不明白，我选的b。citing as evidence....这句话不是说把没有在超产的时候减少产量作为第一个黑体字句子的证据吗？然后后面一直讲的就是产量的问题，那我理解为都是证据啊。第一个黑体字的意思是 公司管理失控 对吧？第二句黑体字是 It is doubtful whether an investor's sniping at management can ever be anything other than counterproductive这个结论是不对的？还是说的生产力问题啊，所以不是应该和第一句黑体后面的evidence是一个类型的吗？(话说第二句黑体字前面那个句子是啥意思啊？公司管理失职只会导致反生产这个是值得怀疑的？？不通啊)
额，我觉得你可能不太了解这种黑体字的做法。不需要把文章的意思带入到选项里，只需要看哪个选项描述了文段中黑体的功能就行了。citing as evidence中的as evidence是宾语的补语，是个倒装结构。文章的核心就是第二个黑体字。整个文章的中心思想就是，第一个黑体字说的那个“公司管理混乱”不能被明确的证明。
