问题    From:     Guillermo Grimaldi
   To:       Samantha Young
   Subject:  Survey Results
   We have the results of our Preferred Investments Survey. I have attached the "Types of Investments" table.
   There is one change on the survey compared to last year. We divided one major category into two parts. The parts are "buildings" and "property." That’s why we don’t have a number from last year to use as a comparison.
   We talked to 1,000 investors between March 1 and March 15. While most of them put their money into a variety of investments, the survey shows that this year there was a greater variety in the type of investment chosen than last year. More people are purchasing each different type of investment. For example, look at the number of mutual fund investors last year (800) as compared to this year (850).
   These results will help our company better decide how to sell our investment products. We predict three types of investment will increase in popularity, and they should be heavily advertised over the next year. Also, we predict that three investments will decrease in popularity. We should decide what to do about those. Are you available on Friday morning? Let’s discuss the declining investments.
Types of Investments
     March 1-15

   *Prediction: d=will go down; s=will stay the same u=will go up  
Why are three categories on the table missing numbers from last year?
选项 A、Nobody invested in those areas last year.
B、People lost all their money in those investments.
C、Real estate was not divided into two categories last year.
D、The survey did not ask about real estate investments.
答案C
解析 The e-mail explains that one category was divided into buildings and property this year, but not last year. By looking at the table, we can see that this category is Real Estate. Choices (A), (B), and (D) are plausible answers but are not correct.
