Kayla: Many people are reluctant to shop in our neighborhood because street parking is scarce. The city plans to address this by adding parking meters with time limits that ensure that parking spaces are generally available. But this plan will surely backfire-shoppers dislike paying at parking meters, so most will probably drive to other neighborhoods to shop at malls with free parking.
Which of the following, if true, would be the most logically effective rebuttal a proponent of the city’s plan could make to Kayla’s objection?
选项
A、Most shoppers dislike hunting for scarce street parking spaces much more than they dislike paying for metered parking spaces.
B、The city could post signs with street parking time limits to ensure that parking spaces become available without forcing shoppers to pay at meters.
C、Currently, most shoppers in the neighborhood drive only occasionally to shop at malls in other neighborhoods.
D、The neighborhood already contains a parking lot where shoppers must pay to park.
E、The nearby malls with free parking have no parking time limits to help ensure that parking spaces in their lots become available.
答案
A
解析
Which one of the answer responses provides the best rebuttal to Kay las objection?
Kayla tells us that a city plans to install parking meters on streets where shoppers in a shopping neighborhood try to park. The meters would have time limits designed to ensure increased availability of parking.
Nevertheless, Kayla believes the plan will have the opposite effect since people dislike paying for parking and are likely to shop instead at a mall where parking is free.
It is important to determine whether shoppers are likely to be deterred from shopping at this mall because they dislike paying to park at time-limited meters.
A Correct. Shoppers currently try to park on the streets where meters will be installed. These shoppers find searching for a parking space increasingly difficult. It is possible that shoppers actually dislike searching for parking spaces more than they dislike paying for parking spaces. If this is the case, there is no reason to believe that these customers will leave the neighborhood to shop elsewhere.
B This answer choice suggests a potential alternative to installing parking meters. This does not provide a rebuttal to Kayla’s objection.
C While many shoppers do not often drive to other neighborhoods to shop, this could change once the meters were installed.
D We are given no information concerning the cost or availability of parking in the parking lot, or its proximity to the shopping portion of the neighborhood.
E We are given no precise information about the relative availability of parking spaces at the nearby malls. However, given Kayla’s concern, it can reasonably be inferred that there is no significant shortage of free parking spaces at these malls.
The correct answer is A.
