今天为大家带来GRE阅读题目解析:阳光进入店内可以帮助增加销量，下面是详细内容：

　　P4

　　That sales can be increased by the presence of sunlight within a store has been shown by the experience of the only Savefast department store with a large skylight. The skylight allows sunlight into half of the store, reducing the need for artificial light. The rest of the store uses only artificial light. Since the store opened two years ago, the departments on the sunlit side have had substantially higher sales than the other departments.

　　8. Which of the following, if true, most strengthens the argument?

　　(A) On particularly cloudy days, more artificial light is used to illuminate the part of the store under the skylight.

　　(B) When the store is open at night, the departments in the part of the store under the skylight have sales that are no higher than those of other departments.

　　(C) Many customers purchase items from departments in both parts of the store on a single shopping trip.

　　(D) Besides the skylight, there are several significant architectural differences between the two parts of the store.

　　(E) The departments in the part of the store under the skylight are the departments that generally have the highest sales in other stores in the Savefast chain.

　　1

　　That sales can be increased by the presence of sunlight within a store has been shown by the experience of the only Savefast department store with a large skylight.

　　阳光进入店内可以帮助增加销量，这是 S 百货商店的经验，只有这家店有个大天窗。

　　2

　　The skylight allows sunlight into half of the store, reducing the need for artificial light.

　　阳光透过天窗，可以覆盖店内一半的面积，减少了对人工照明的需求。

　　3

　　The rest of the store uses only artificial light.

　　另一半只有人工照明。

　　4

　　Since the store opened two years ago, the departments on the sunlit side have had substantially higher sales than the other departments.

　　自从两年前开业，有阳光一侧的营业部门比另一侧的营业额高出很多。

　　8. Which of the following, if true, most strengthens the argument?

　　(A) On particularly cloudy days, more artificial light is used to illuminate the part of the store under the skylight.

　　(B) When the store is open at night, the departments in the part of the store under the skylight have sales that are no higher than those of other departments.

　　(C) Many customers purchase items from departments in both parts of the store on a single shopping trip.

　　(D) Besides the skylight, there are several significant architectural differences between the two parts of the store.

　　(E) The departments in the part of the store under the skylight are the departments that generally have the highest sales in other stores in the Savefast chain.

　　选 B

　　问哪项能够加强论证。

　　A 阴天时，会用更多灯照阳光区。没人知道这么照一下是否会产生好效果，无法判断。本项正确的前提是结论正确，而结论是否正确还不一定，题目让我们试图加强论证，从这个角度说，本项应该叫发育不良项。

　　B 晚上营业时，阳光区的营业额不比非阳光区的营业额高。正确。补充了这一项，论证过程变成：有阳光，销量高;无阳光，看不出销量更高。能够支撑结论，即阳光促进销售。

　　C 许多顾客在两个区都要消费。无关项，仍然不能解释为什么阳光区销售额高。

　　D 除了阳光的区别，两区建筑风格也有很多明显不同。削弱论证项。如果此项成立，观众会怀疑，也许阳光不是销量差异的原因或主要原因，起码未必是唯一原因，这样论证就被削弱了。

　　E 阳光区的部门，在其他 S 百货商店也是销售额最高的部门。削弱论证项。也许销量高跟阳光完全无关。
