14(B).   Lucien’s argument against the public-housing advocates’ position is most vulnerable to which one of the following criticisms?

(A) It offers no justification for dismissing as absurd the housing advocates’ claim that there are many homeless people in the city.

(B) It treats information acquired through informal conversations as though it provided evidence as strong as information acquired on the basis of controlled scientific studies.

(C) It responds to a claim in which “available” is used in the sense of “affordable” by using “available” in the sense of “not occupied.”

(D) It overlooks the possibility that not all apartment buildings have vacant apartments for rent.（C）

(E) It fails to address the issue, raised by the public-housing advocates’ argent, of who would pay for the construction of more low-income housing

这道题C项看不懂

用在“not occupied.”意义上使用的“available”去回答在“affordable”意义上使用的“available”的主张。

我怎么更晕了.小女愚笨,容我在考虑考虑.

paraphrase: in a claim, "available" means "affordable".

however, in the response to the claim, "available" is interpreted as "not occupied"

哈哈,这下清楚了.

敬仰!
