示例

  • "Bruno : Susie, you make a very convincing case for using ethical labor, whatever the cost."
练习 1
Susie wants Delavigne Corp to:

Susie wants Delavigne Corp to:
This is not the best choice. There is no indication in the dialogue that Susie wants Delavigne Corp to "stop worrying about production costs". Bruno summarizes Susie's position by saying "you make a very convincing case for using ethical labor, whatever the cost". In this context "whatever the cost" is a figurative expression which emphasizes the importance of "using ethical labor", and does not refer to the literal "cost" or "price" of production.
This is the best choice. Bruno summarizes Susie's position by saying, "Susie, you make a very convincing case for using ethical labor". To "use ethical labor" shares a similar meaning with "engaging in fair labor practices", which is what Susie wants Delavigne Corp to do.
This is not the best choice. There is nothing said in the dialogue regarding Susie wanting Delavigne Corp to "convince their production partners to use legal production methods". Bruno says "you make a very convincing case for using ethical labor, whatever the cost", but here "convincing" is being used as an adjective to express that Susie's argument is "persuasive".
This is not the best choice. Susie's argument for using ethical labor does not include going to a court of law. Bruno does talk about the "case" Susie has made, but he is referring to her argument, not "legal proceedings" or "taking their case to a court of law". The idiom "to make a case for something" means to "make an argument for something".
