琦叔七套中Section 7中的124题
38. Although a change in management may appear to _____ a shift in a company’s fortunes, more often than not its impact is____.
A hinder    measurable
B.promote   demonstrable
C.accelerate   profound
D.betray   fundamental
E.augur   inconsiderable

由句首的although看，句子机构是让步转折，所以由前半句的意思是change in managemet augurs the shift in fortunes, 后半句应该和前半句反义。但是不理解more often than not its impact is____.的意思。所以求问大牛们解答！Big THX

Rather的意思

是不是more than 用来修饰 not inconsiderable的关系？如果是这样话，否定了considerable,就是inconsiderable

More often than not的意思是 normally, often, 前面有个 although, 后面就变成了 rather, but
