It is illegal to advertise prescription
medications in Hedland except directly to physicians, either by mail or in
medical journals. A proposed law would
allow general advertising of prescription medications. Opponents object that the general population
lacks the specialized knowledge to evaluate such advertisements and might ask
their physicians for inappropriate medications.
But since physicians have the final say as to whether to prescribe a
medication for a patient, inappropriate prescriptions would not become more
common.

Which of the following would it be most useful to
establish in order to evaluate the argument?

(A) Whether advertising for prescription
medications might alert patients to the existence of effective treatments for
minor ailments that they had previously thought to be untreatable

(B) Whether some people might go to a physician
for no reason other than to ask for a particular medication they have seen
advertised

(C) Whether the proposed law requires
prescription-medication advertisements directed to the general public to
provide the same information as do advertisements directed to physicians

(D) Whether advertisements for prescription
medications are currently an important source of information about newly
available medications for physicians

(E) Whether physicians would give in to
a patient's demand for a prescription medication chosen by the patient when the
one originally prescribed by the physician fails to perform as desired

很快排出了ABC,但在D/E上纠结了很久,不明白为什么E对D错呢?请教NN

该文章的观点是 inappropriate prescriptions 不会变得更common（结论）原因是 physicians have the final say

E项要求评价是否医生会给病人他想要的药
美国人的思维是 如果医生的处方是由病人决定那么就会有inappropriate prescriptions的可能性（文中已经提到）如果医生的处方不是由病人决定,那么支持原文的观点inappropriate prescriptions would not become more common

D选项是标准的无关选项广告是否为医生获得新药的重要来源跟结论无关（有个前提：文章开头已经说明对医生做广告是合法的）

可能你觉得疑问 E的后半段有个条件the one originally prescribed by the physician fails to perform as desired 所以你认为医生开的药是患者正真需要的将其排除在inappropriate prescriptions 之外事实上你怎么能保证患者不是欺骗医生呢? 不能保证就不要做原文之外的推理

这个送你：在真实机考中很多正确选项反而看起来跟原文不沾边
