The author’s main point is that______
The author lists the various activities of early chartered trading companies in order to______
选项
A、analyze the various ways in which these activities contributed to changes in management structure in such companies
B、demonstrate that the volume of business transactions of such companies exceeded that of exceeded that of earlier firms
C、refute the view that the volume of business undertaken by such companies was relatively low
D、emphasize the international scope of these companies’ operations
E、support the argument that such firms coordinated such activities by using available means of communication and transport
答案
C
解析
This question asks you to identify the function served by the author’s listing the various activities of early chartered trading companies. The best answer is C. In the last sentence of the first paragraph of the passage, the author states that the volume of early chartered trading companies’ transactions is usually assumed to have been low. The author then contradicts this view in the second paragraph by listing many different kinds of trade-related activities undertaken by trading companies that indicate a significant volume of business. Thus the author’s list serves to refute the belief that the volume of early chartered trading companies’ transactions was relatively low. Choice A is incorrect because the passage indicates that the nature of the various transactions engaged in by early chartered trading companies required a complex management structure, but the author’s listing of activities does not indicate ways in which the management structure changed. Choices B, D, and E can be eliminated: the list of examples of the various activities engaged in by early chartered trading companies does not follow a statement about the international scope of these companies or a comparison with the activities of earlier firms, and it is not offered in support of an argument about how chartered trading companies used available means of communication and transport.
