GRE官方题库原题38
The following memorandum is from the business manager of Happy Pancake House restaurants.
"Butter has now been replaced by margarine in Happy Pancake House restaurants throughout the southwestern United States. Only about 2 percent of customers have complained, indicating that 98 people out of 100 are happy with the change. Furthermore, many servers have reported that a number of customers who ask for butter do not complain when they are given margarine instead. Clearly, either these customers cannot distinguish butter from margarine or they use the term 'butter' to refer to either butter or margarine. Thus, to avoid the expense of purchasing butter and to increase profitability, the Happy Pancake House should extend this cost-saving change to its restaurants in the southeast and northeast as well."
Write a response in which you discuss what questions would need to be answered in order to decide whether the recommendation is likely to have the predicted result. Be sure to explain how the answers to these questions would help to evaluate the recommendation.
题目翻译
House在美国西南部的餐厅用人造黄油代替了天然黄油。只有大约2%的顾客曾经投 诉,这说明100个人中有98人对于这种替换是乐于接受的。而且,很多服务生报告说很多仍然要了天然黄油的顾客在被给予人造黄油的时候并没有投诉。显然, 这些顾客要么分不清天然黄油和人造黄油,要么是用"天然黄油"这个词汇来指天然黄油或人造黄油。因此,为避免购买天然黄油的花费,Happy Pancake House应该把这项节省措施推广到在东南部以及东北部的餐厅。
题目分析
H 饭店应该在东南部地区和东北部地区也用人造黄油换成黄油这项省钱的改变。因为在美国西南部地区H城的这种改变,只引起了2%的顾客抱怨,这显示98%的人 对这种变化挺高兴。另外很多服务商报告说很多仍然说要黄油的顾客,当他们得到的是人造黄油时也没有说什么。很清楚,要么是他们分辨不出来,要么就是他们用 黄油这个名称称呼这两种产品。
·前提,顾客没意见。2%的顾客抱怨,不代表98%的就高兴。有人不在乎,有人在乎但不说,但下次会不再光顾。
·证据,要黄油的顾客拿到人造的不说什么,不表示他们分辨不出来,没资料显示顾客看不出来,或是不在乎。他们怕麻烦,或是不得己。但下次还是不去了。
·结论:各地不一样,有些地方的人特别在乎人造的问题。还有地方不一样,货的成本可能也会有区别。
提纲参考
1. 不投诉不说明满意。
2. 仍旧有人投诉。
3. 即使西南部适用,其他地方未必适用。
4. 可以同时使用,未必只能选其一。
