　　20.本地集中生产的好处

　　【版本1】

　　关于本地集中生产的好处，主要是由于地域的关系让很多生产都集中在一起，这样有很多好处，比如说原材料都在一起,生产互补等等。比较好懂，就是问题的选项太长了，费时间，每个选项都是大段大段的叙述，每个问题的选项都可以构成逻辑一道题了。

　　【版本2】

　　第一段：定义密集经济，并且说类似的公司扎堆是常有的是)。许多经济学家列举advantage来解释：第一，扎堆在一个特别的地方他们可以共享稀缺资源啊(这里高亮);第二，就算这个地方没什么特别的，这些什么公司(这里是高亮的三个单词，不大记得了，似乎有一个是structuring)他们可以共享同质的劳动力市场(human resources)啥的

　　第二段：一个叫S的人跑出来反驳，说扎堆不好啊，扎堆的话会引起公司之间的什么竞争的，然后说__理论证明了__

　　第三段：提出另外一种假说解释，又说集中在一个location好。(有题)

　　Q1：S会同意关于第一个高亮的什么说法

　　我这里似乎选的是共享的好处不如竞争带来的威胁强悍，

　　Q2：那个理论证明高亮部分其实会咋样

　　Q3：第二段的专家最可能怎么评价第一段提出的advantage：

　　insufficient to explain 或类似意思

　　Q4：第二段引用的理论的implication，用排除法
