问题 A greater number of newspapers are sold in Town S than in Town T. Therefore, the citizens of Town S are better informed about major world events than are the citizens of Town T. Each of the following, if true, weakens the conclusion above EXCEPT:

选项 A、Town S has a larger population than Town T.
B、Most citizens of Town T work in Town S and buy their newspapers there.
C、The average citizen of Town S spends less time reading newspapers than does the average citizen of Town T.
D、A weekly newspaper restricted to the coverage of local events is published in Town S.
E、The average newsstand price of newspapers sold in Town S is lower than the average price of newspapers sold in Town T.

答案E

解析 要看清问题目的为“Weaken、Except”,所以其答案应为无关选项或支持选项。该结论是建立在比较S城和T城的报纸销量上的。有四个选项说明了为什么S城更大的报纸销量不一定意味着S城市民更好地掌握关于世界大事的信息?选项(B)指出S城出售的许多报纸使T城的市民掌握了信息,而不是S城。选项(A)和(C)都表明即使平均每个市民对新闻没有更多的了解的情况下,通过什么方式可以出现更大的报纸销量。最后,选项(D)指出S城市民阅读的很多报纸不是关于世界大事的信息来源。(E)中提到的价格差异有助于解释销量的差异,但不能削弱建立在销量差异基础上的该结论,因此,F是正确答案。
