Journalist: In physics journals, the number of articles reporting the results of experiments involving particle accelerators was lower last year than it had been in previous years. Several of the particle accelerators at major research institutions were out of service the year before last for repairs, so it is likely that the low number of articles was due to the decline in availability of particle accelerators.

Which of the following, if true, most seriously undermines the journalist's argument?

正确答案: E

Journalist: In physics journals, the number of articles reporting the results of experiments involving particle accelerators was lower last year than it had
been in previous years. Several of the particle accelerators at major research institutions were out of service the year before last for repairs, so it is likely
that the low number of articles was due to the decline in availability of
particle accelerators.
Which of the following, if true, most seriously undermines the journalist’s argument?
(A) Every article based on experiments with particle accelerators that
was submitted for publication last year actually was published.
(B) The average time scientists must wait for access to a
particle accelerator has declined over the last several years.
(C) The number of physics journals was the same last year
as in previous years.
(D) Particle accelerators can be used for more than one
group of experiments in any given year.
(E) Recent changes in the editorial policies of several physics
journals have decreased the likelihood that articles concerning
particle-accelerator research will be accepted for publication.

请教:
the number of articles reporting the results of experiments involving particle accelerators was lower last year than it had been in previous years.这句话,是不是在说:
发表在去年的文章(关于particle的)少。

If yes, then
    那和e中的recent有关系么?recent是去年么?
else
    是什么意思呢?
endif
thanks!

I thought about "recent" when I picked E. But as I eliminated all other choices, E was the only one possible to me.

I think there is not determined meaning of "recent". what it means depends on the context and time frame. If we are talking about events in the last two months, recent more likely refers to events in the past few days. If about past two decades, it might refers to past few years.

我觉得这题首先要明确题型。
如果熟悉CXD的分类的话,很快就知道是一个现象推出一个结论。
这种题型的驳斥方向就是:找到另一个解释。
直接看答案,只有E选项是为现象提供了解释的

我想不通B为什么不能削弱.

等候时间少了,就提高了机器使用率,换句话说就提高了论文的数量.如果使用率提高导致论文增加的数量大于机器停用减少的论文数量,结果说明实际论文的产量还是提高了,但最后发表的少了,说明是有他因在影响发表论文数量.

请问哪位能说一下我的推理哪里有问题?我觉得这个选项一样也在削弱,但ETS说是在增强.我无非感觉这个削弱没有象E指出他因那样直接...所以从priority来说还是E好.

请赐教!
