问题 According to the passage, all of the following are benefits associated with backward integration EXCEPT______
Which of the following best describes the way the last paragraph functions in the context of the passage?

选项 A、The last in a series of arguments supporting the central argument of the passage is presented.
B、A viewpoint is presented which qualifies one presented earlier in the passage.
C、Evidence is presented in support of the argument developed in the preceding paragrap.
D、Questions arising from the earlier discussion are identified as points of departure for further study of the topic.
E、A specific example is presented to illustrate the main elements of argument presented in the earlier paragraphs.

答案B

解析 This question asks you to choose the statement that best describes the function of the last paragraph of the passage. The best answer is B. At the end of the third paragraph, the author indicates that assemblers benefit from contracting with, rather than owning, independent suppliers. In the last paragraph, however, the author indicates that contracting with independent suppliers can itself present problems. Thus the last paragraph qualifies the viewpoint presented at the end of the third paragraph. Choice A is not the correct answer because the passage makes several points about backward integration, but does not present a central argument about this topic. Choice C is not the correct answer because the final paragraph qualifies rather than supports an argument made in the third paragraph about contracting with independent suppliers. Choices D and E are incorrect because the final paragraph does not identify questions or present a specific example.
