A. relies on information that is far from certain B. confuses being an adequate solution with being a required solution C. inappropriately relies on the opinions of experts D. inappropriately employs language that is vague E. takes for granted that there is no way to increase available funds

only if意思——只有XX才XX,意思就成了必要条件,只有采取了这个plan,才能增加收入。 但实际上,还有可能有其他的选择,因此用这个plan不是唯一的选择,所以说采用这个plan是个充分条件——即,只要采用这个plan,就可以增加收入。但采用这个plan不是必要条件——即,即使我们不采用这个plan,还有其他办法。
