标题: 哪位解释一下？谢谢！

The earth’s resources are being depleted much too fast. To correct this, the United States must keep its resource consumption at present levels for many years to come.

13. The argument above depends on which of the following assumptions?

(A) Per capita resource consumption in the United States is at an all-time high.

(B) The United States wastes resources.

(D) The United States imports most of the resources it uses.（E）

(E) Curbing U.S. resource consumption will significantly retard world resource depletion.

14. Which of the following, if true, would most strengthen the argument above?

(A) New resource deposits are constantly being discovered.

(B) The United States consumes one-third of all resources used in the world.

(D) Other countries have agreed to hold their resource consumption at present levels.（B）

The key words here are "earth resources" and "USA". The stem says if we need to correct the depletion of the resources, the USA must keep its resource consumption level. You must think, why USA's keeping its resource consumption level will help solve the problem for the world. Shouldn't you guess that USA's resource consumption is so SIGNIFICANT that what it does will have an impact on the world's resource? That natually explains why E and B are the right answers.
