Three large companies and seven small companies currently manufacture a product with potential military applications. If the government regulates the industry, it will institute a single set of manufacturing specifications to which all ten companies will have to adhere. In this case, therefore, since none of the seven small companies can afford to convert their production lines to a new set of manufacturing specifications, only the three large companies will be able to remain in business.
Which of the following is an assumption on which the author’s argument relies?
A.None of the three large companies will go out of business if the government does not regulate the manufacture of the product.
B.It would cost more to convert the production lines of the small companies to a new set of manufacturing specifications than it would to convert the production lines of the large companies.
C.Industry lobbyists will be unable to dissuade the government from regulating the industry.
D.Assembly of the product produced according to government manufacturing specifications would be more complex than current assembly procedures.
E.None of the seven small companies currently manufactures the product to a set of specifications that would match those the government would institute if the industry were to be regulated.
题目分析：A说如果政府不出台法规监管产品，三个大公司将不对出局，文章说的是如果政府出台法规之后会产生什么结果，这个选项说政府不出台法规监管，范围驴唇不对马嘴，杀。B说小公司和大公司转换生产线小公司费钱更多，没说过这个比较，杀。C说lobbyist将不能够说服政府让它不管理这个工业，没说，杀。D说新的生产线将会比老的更复杂，没说过，杀。E说如果政府出台法规，没有小公司成产的产品能够满足政府的要求，原文反复谈的就是产品是否满足要求，信息和原文沾边，留着。
