Hollywood restaurant is replacing some of its standard tables with tall tables and stool's. The restaurant already fills every available seat during its operating hours, and the change in seating arrangements will not result in an increase in the restaurant's seating capacity. Nonetheless, the restaurant's management expects revenue to increase as a result of the seating change without any concurrent change in menu, prices, or operating hours.

Which of the following, if true, provides the best reason for the expectation?

 A

One of the taller tables takes up less floor space than one of the standard tables.

 B

Diners seated on stools typically do not linger over dinner as long as diners seated at standard tables.

 C

Since the restaurant will replace only some of its standard tables, it can continue to accommodate customers who do not care for the taller tables.

 D

Few diners are likely to avoid the restaurant because of the new seating arrangement.

 E

The standard tables being replaced by tall tables would otherwise have to be replaced with new standard tables at a greater expense.

正确答案：B

题干：H餐厅将现有的标准餐桌换成高餐桌和高吧椅。餐厅目前在营业时间满座，而且更换计划不会增加该餐厅的容量。但是，餐厅的管理层预期更换计划会在目前现有的菜单及价格基础上带来更多的营业收入。
题目：下面哪一项可以解释餐厅管理层的预期
分析：引入他因解释型正向逻辑。找出更换高餐桌吧椅对营业额的正面效应！
选项A，高餐桌占用更小的面积，但是题干中明确指出更换计划无法增加餐厅容量，错误！
选项B，顾客坐在高吧椅上不会在餐厅逗留过长的时间，由此可以增加翻台次数进而增加营业额，正确！
选项C, 只更换一部分餐桌，仍然可以吸引不喜欢高餐桌的客人，无法解释题干中增加收入的问题，错误！
选项D，没多少顾客会因为更换餐桌吧椅不来就餐，只能保证营业额不会有太多减少并无法保证营业额增加，错误！
选项E，不换高餐桌也要换成更贵的标准餐桌，这是成本问题，与营业额增加减少相互独立，错误！
