标题: GWD5-Q15

Lightbox,Inc., owns almost all of the movie theaters in Washington Countyand has announced plans to double the number of movie screens it has in thecounty within five years. Yet attendanceat Lightbox’s theaters is only just large enough for profitability now and thecounty’s population is not expected to increase over the next ten years. Clearly, therefore, if there is indeed noincrease in population, Lightbox’s new screens are unlikely to proveprofitable.

Whichof the following, if true about Washington County, most seriouslyweakens the argument?

A. Though little change in the size of the population isexpected, a pronounced shift toward a younger, more affluent, and moreentertainment-oriented population is expected to occur.

B. The sales of snacks and drinks in its movie theatersaccount for more of Lightbox’s profits than ticket sales do.

C. In selecting the mix of movies shown at its theaters,Lightbox’s policy is to avoid those that appeal to only a small segment of themoviegoing population.

D. Spending on video purchases, as well as spending on videorentals, is currently no longer increasing.

E. There are no population centers in the county that are notalready served by at least one of the movie theaters that Lightbox owns andoperates.

答案是A。
如果一定要选只能选A，但我最初看A认为是无关的，所以随便选了个E。more affluent, and more entertainment-oriented population又怎么样呢，和movie theaters没有必然联系，不知道我想的对不对，请高手指点一二

这里是说电影院准备double the screens 但是因为attendence勉强盈利+population不变所以预测不会盈利
这里的assumption是attendence不会变
所以选项应该是可以改变attendence的
A 改变目标市场 B.D无关
C E 和人口有关但是是现有情况也就是说电影院已经是这样的了所以没有change不能选
