答案B
题目大意:美国木浆的出口今年将大大增加。 上涨的原因是,美元贬值将使日本和西欧的造纸商购买美国木浆比从任何其他来源获得便宜。
得出以上结论时,以下哪个假设是假设?
核心逻辑:需要选择出,能够支持“美元贬值-日欧购买-木材出口增加”逻辑链的选项。
A.今年,日本和西欧的纸制品工厂产量将急剧增加。产量增加并不代表一定从美国购买
B.在美国生产的木浆质量足以满足日本和西欧纸制造商的目的。满足需求、价格便宜的情况下,购买的可能性更大。
C.如果不考虑成本,日本和西欧的造纸商更愿意使用美国生产的木浆。本题需要考虑成本。
D.今年日本和西欧对纸制品的需求不会急剧增加。需求不增加,也可能因为美国降价而需选择购买。
E.今年,美国公司生产的木浆将不会急剧增加。这与是否出口间存在逻辑链断裂。
