Three large companies and seven small companies currently manufacture a product with potential military applications. If the government regulates the industry, it will institute a single set of manufacturing specifications to which all ten companies will have to adhere. In this case, therefore, since none of the seven small companies can afford to convert their production lines to a new set of manufacturing specifications, only the three large companies will be able to remain in business.
Which of the following is an assumption on which the author's argument relies?
None of the three large companies will go out of business if the government does not regulate the manufacture of the product.
It would cost more to convert the production lines of the small companies to a new set of manufacturing specifications than it would to convert the production lines of the large companies.
Industry lobbyists will be unable to dissuade the government from regulating the industry.
Assembly of the product produced according to government manufacturing specifications would be more complex than current assembly procedures.
None of the seven small companies currently manufactures the product to a set of specifications that would match those the government would institute if the industry were to be regulated.

C. 说客不能阻止政府规范产业;跳出逻辑链,无关
D. 政府规范的产品装配比现在装配程序更复杂;无关
E. 7家小公司没有一家制造产品遵循的规范和政府规范一致;取非则至少一家和政府规范一致,那就不止三家大公司,削弱题干的结论,正确
C: only large companies remain (即,small companies not remain)
搭桥:E 小公司不能满足整改要求,留不下来,所以只有大公司留的下来
选项E(√)
None of the seven small companies currently manufactures the product to a set of specifications that would match those the government would institute if the industry were to be regulated.
目前,这七家 small companies没有一家按照政府在行业受到监管时制定的规格来生产产品。;取非:至少有其中一家 small companies 按照政府规范来生产产品,那 small companies就会remain,即不会只有large companies留下来 remain,所以削弱题干的结论( only large companies remain)。
A. 如果政府不规范 if the government does not regulate,三家大公司中没有一家会退出市场;(×)原文讨论是规范的情况 If the government regulates,跳出范围,排
七家小企业支付不起转换设备的费用
因此只有三家大公司会保留他们的业务
前提:其实题目默认了七家企业一定要转换设备,那就意味着他们生产的产品目前不满足规定
因为7家小公司都负担不起将生产线调整到符合具体的标准,所以只有3家大公司会活下来继续营业。问assume
choice e, 7家小公司目前生产的产品没有一家是可以符合即将颁布的条款的要求的。correct,取非,只要有一家小公司符合即将发布的条款,那么结论:只有大公司能活下来就会被削弱
注意语气词 态度词 未发生的 已发生的 猜测的...等等等
B It simply suggests one among a number of possible circumstances that could help
explain why none of the small companies could afford a conversion—if indeed a conversion is actually needed.

He doesn't comment on what will happen if manufacturing is regulated. And the argument is about what will happen if industry is regulated. Thus you can drop A.
