FastMart, a convenience store chain, is planning to add pancake syrup to the items it sells. FastMart stores do not have shelf space to stock more than one variety of syrup. Surveys of FastMart customers indicate that one-fourth of them prefer low-calorie syrup, while three-fourths prefer regular syrup. Since FastMart's highest priority is to maximize sales, the obvious strategy for it is to stock regular syrup.
Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument?
People buying pancake syrup at convenience stores, those buying it at supermarkets, generally buy it only a few times.
People who prefer low-calorie syrup generally use about the same amount of syrup on their pancakes as those who prefer regular syrup.
Regular syrup does not sell for a higher price per unit than low-calorie syrup.
In general, customers who prefer regular syrup buy low-calorie syrup if regular is unavailable, but those who prefer low-calorie will not buy regular syrup.
Sales of syrup are not expected to account for a large proportion of total dollar sales at the average FastMart store.
我去。。。这题一开始完全没明白意思。我以为是店铺要把这种syrup收起来。。但是stock在这里好像不应该解释成存储的意思。。应该是放货架上展示的意思。。。也就是说超市是在决定要摆哪种syrup出来卖,而不是要把哪种syrup存起来。。。完全理解错了,怪不得每一个选项看着顺眼
