In the past most airline companies minimized aircraft weight to minimize fuel costs. The safest airline seats were heavy, and airlines equipped their planes with few of these seats. This year the seat that has sold best to airlines has been the safest one—a clear indication that airlines are assigning a higher priority to safe seating than to minimizing fuel costs.
Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument above?
(A) Last year’s best-selling airline seat was not the safest airline seat on the market.
(B) No airline company has announced that it would be making safe seating a higher priority this year.
(C) The price of fuel was higher this year than it had been in most of the years when the safest airline seats sold poorly.
(D) Because of increases in the cost of materials, all airline seats were more expensive to manufacture this year than in any previous year.
(E) Because of technological innovations, the safest airline seat on the market this year weighed less than most other airline seats on the market.
Choice C indicates that minimizing fuel costs remains a priority, but it is neutral on whether safety has become more important, so C is incorrect
解释不明白. 我觉得C: fuel贵的时候safest seat比fuel便宜的时候卖的还好,说明了price 不是priority,而safety显得更加重要了. 是加强结论. 但为什么OG解释说 indicates that minimizing fuel costs remains a priority?? 还说在safety问题上是neutral的呢??
非常不解!!!!
我怎么记得此题的答案是E啊？
再看一遍才明白，原来是问错误选项为什么错啊？
我觉得选项必须含有safe seat跟fuel costs之间的关系才最符合题意。

你的思路很正确. buy more safest seats while fuel cost is increased. Ｃ的确是加强. 没必要拿着OG当圣经看. 逻辑思维是活的, 不用看得这么死.
看圣经当然也是活的.
不好意思, 不该拿religion开玩笑. 我自己是Christian, 太不因该了.
