Question 10:
Environmentalist: The use of snowmobiles in the vast park north of Milville creates unacceptable levels of air pollution and should be banned.
Milville business spokesperson: Snowmobiling brings many out-of-towners to Milville in winter months, to the great financial benefit of many local residents. So, economics dictate that we put up with the pollution.
Environmentalist: I disagree: A great many cross-country skiers are now kept from visiting Milville by the noise and pollution that snowmobiles generate.
Environmentalist responds to the business spokesperson by doing which of the following?
A. Challenging an assumption that certain desirable outcome can derive from only one set of circumstances
B. Challenging an assumption that certain desirable outcome is outweighed by negative aspects associated with producing that outcome
C. Maintaining that the benefit that the spokesperson desires could be achieved in greater degree by a different means
D. Claiming that the spokesperson is deliberately misrepresenting the environmentalist’s position in order to be better able to attack it
E. Denying that an effect that the spokesperson presents as having benefited a certain group of people actually benefited those people
这道题，网上倾向性的意见是e是答案，但我有不同意见：
环境学家并没有否认雪上汽车给居民带来了好处,他只是说I disagree: A great many cross-country skiers are now kept from visiting Milville by the noise and pollution that snowmobiles generate.
也就是说 the spokesperson presents as haveing benefited a certain group of people actually benefited those people 是可能的，至少在文中没有否认它的证据。
我选a，
Milville business spokesperson: Snowmobiling brings many out-of-towners to Milville in winter months, to the great financial benefit of many local residents. So, economics dictate that we put up with the pollution.
spokesperson辩解的理由是血上汽车给居民带来效益，所以他们必须忍受污染。
言下之意就是假设要想经济上得利，没别的办法，只有忍受污染。
而环境学家恰恰反驳了这一点，指出有很多滑雪者因为污染不来了，那么没了污染，滑雪者同样会给居民带来效益。a正是指出了这一点。
