In 1985 in the country of Alissia, farmers brought to market a broccoli crop that was one-and-a-half times as large as the 1985 broccoli crop in its neighbor country, Barbera. Yet total quantities of broccoli available for sale to consumers in Alissia were smaller than were total quantities in Barbera in 1985.
Which of the following, if true, in 1985, contributes most to an explanation of why there was less broccoli available for sale to consumers in Alissia than in Barbera?
(A) Barbera’s farmers produced much more cabbage than did Alissia’s farmers.
(B) Barbera’s farmers produced fewer heads of broccoli per acre than did Alissia’s farmers.
(C) Alissia exported a much higher proportion of its broccoli crop than did Barbera.
(D) Broccoli was much more popular among consumers in Alissia than in Barbera.
(E) Alissia had more land suitable for growing broccoli than did Barbera.
请问B为什么不对呢?
请问A问么不对？
In 1985 in the country of Alissia, farmers brought to market a broccoli crop that was one-and-a-half times as large as the 1985 broccoli crop in its neighbor country, Barbera.
是理解成：a有一种比在b生长的大1倍半的broccoli ，对不对？
the answer is C
我也是同样问题，A为什么不对？
虽然C的确是答案无误，针对题干，因为出口多了，所以在A国国内销售少了。但是这里有个假设前提，就是A国和B国的产量一样。请注意，原文中只提到说A国产品比B国产品的块头大（one-and-a-half times as large as the 1985 broccoli crop in its neighbor country）而已。得出C为答案需要有一个隐含假设：两国产量一样多。
而A说的是A国产品本来就比B国少。听起来也可以解释原文啊，因为A国产量本来就少，所以其销售数比B国少就很正常了。
选项A实际上是C的隐含假设取非。
请教!
突然想到一个问题，是不是我理解题意都错了？ one-and-a-half times as large as 是指的数量是一倍半？如果这样理解的话，答案就肯定跟A没关系了。
A only repeated what the stimulus stated.
one-and-a-half times as large as 是指的数量是一倍半. yes, you're right.
