In order to reduce the number of items damaged while in transit to customers, packaging consultants recommended that the TrueSave mail-order company increase the amount of packing material so as to fill any empty spaces in its cartons. Accordingly, TrueSave officials instructed the company's packers to use more packing material than before, and the packers zealously acted on these instructions and used as much as they could. Nevertheless, customer reports of damaged items rose somewhat.
Which of the following, if true, most helps to explain why acting on the consultants' recommendation failed to achieve its goal?
(A)The change in packing policy led to an increase in expenditure on packing material and labor.
(B)When packing material is compressed too densely, it loses some of its capacity to absorb shock.
(C)The amount of packing material used in a carton does not significantly influence the ease with which a customer can unpack the package.
(D)Most of the goods that TrueSave ships are electronic products that are highly vulnerable to being damaged in transit.
(E)TrueSave has lost some of its regular customers as a result of the high number of damaged items they received.
题目分析:原文由一个现象很奇怪,明明填充物多了应该减少损坏物,但是损坏物反而增加了,问哪个选项可以解释这个现象。A说填充物多了会导致成本上升,成本上升和损坏物变多有什么关系,干掉。B说如果用了太多填充物,就不能吸收冲击力了,因为不能吸收冲击力,所以损坏物就多了,连的比较通顺,留着。C说填充物的使用量不会影响客户拆解包裹时的费劲程度。D说运动的都是容易坏的电子产品,这些产品本来就容易坏,不是我增加填充物导致的,我问的是为什么增加填充物之后坏的反而多了,不能回答问题,干掉。E说由于损坏物多了这个公司流失了一些客户,扯得太远了,干掉。
