题目是：咖啡的销量下降的原因是因为人们由于健康原因，不想喝咖啡了。问题是：怎么削弱？

但我认为是C啊。一些品种的咖啡销量维持不变，而一些普通品种的销量下去了。

我认为，C选项表明，人们不是健康原因，而是口味原因。与Ｅ选项一样，都是他因削弱。

44. In the last decade there has been a significant decrease in coffee consumption. During this same time, there has been increasing publicity about the caffeine in coffee's adverse long-term effects on health. Therefore, the decrease in coffee consumption must have been caused by consumers' awareness of the harmful effects of caffeine.

Which of the following, if true, most seriously calls into question the explanation above?

(A) On average, people consume 30 percent less coffee today than they did 10 years ago.

(B)
Heavy coffee drinkers may have mild withdrawal symptoms, such as headaches, for a day or so after significantly decreasing their coffee consumption.

(D) The consumption of fruit juices and caffeine-free herbal teas has increased over the past decade.

(E)
Coffee prices increased steadily in the past decade because of unusually severe frosts in coffee-growing nations.

题目先拿来，个人觉得，你说C对。你已经多推理了一步了specialty types和 regular brands，跟你所说的口味是2个概念。其实你这里有一个ASSUMPTION你认为 specialty types和 regular brands就是口味

B. Coffee affecting health. Strengthen.

C. Total consumption of coffee has decreased significantly. It doesn't matter whether sales of some specialty types of coffee held steady or even increased. The point is "coffee consumption" has decreased. Irrelevant.

D. This states another side of the observation. People consume less coffee and more fruit juices and caffeine-free herbal teas.

E. Coffee prices increased steadily. This provides an alternative cause of the decrease of coffee consumption. People could be consuming less coffee because the prices have gone up too much. Weaken.

A. Stating the same observation that the consumption of coffee has decreased.
