A physically active lifestyle has been shown to help increase longevity. In the Wistar region of Bellaria, the average age at death is considerably higher than in any other part of the country. Wistar is the only mountainous part of Bellaria. A mountainous terrain makes even such basic activities as walking relatively strenuous; it essentially imposes a physically active lifestyle on people. Clearly, this circumstance explains the long lives of people in Wistar.

Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument?

正确答案: C

the average age at death

Well, if all the samples are older than 65, the average age at death of the samples cannot be lower than 65, right?

On the other hand, in a very healthy neighborhood, all people are younger than 65 and every guy who is one day away from his or her 65th birthday dies of car accident, murder, or suicide. Then the average age at death of that neighborhood can never reach 65!

For those who chose A), pay attention to the phrase "In the Wistar region of Bellaria." So people live in W lives longer than people live in other areas of B.

Now A) says all people live in B has healthcare. Great. But that condition alone does not explain why ONLY people in W live a longer lives than other people who live in B. So A) has no bearing on the conclusion.

"Many people" does not mean "ALL people"!!!  

Make sure you understand the English.

Many = 1-100, not 100 (All).
