以下是bible 2017版的一道练习题，LZ选错了，但是不能理解这个错误选项为什么错了。。。求助CD大神！

Omnifilm, a large film production studio, willrelease its next new major movie, FastCar, six months from now. AlthoughOmniFilm generally begins advertising six months prior to the release of amajor film, the studio plans to initiate the FastCar ad campaign three monthsfrom now.

Which ofthe following, if true, best explains OmniFilm’s decision to wait three months before beginning the adcampaign?

(A) Manystudies show that the benefits of advertising a film are maximized when the adcampaign is initiated no more than six months before a film’s release.

(B)Initiating the ad campaign for FastCar in six months would unquestionably beless effective than initiating the campaign in three months.

(C)Commencing the ad campaign for FastCar would attract public attention away fromanother OmniFilm movie currently showing in theaters.

(D)Early reviews predict that FastCar will be one of the highest-grossing films inOmniFilm’s history.

(E) FastCar’s advertising budget is at least 50%greater than that of any other movie ever released by OmniFilm.

bible给的正确答案是C，LZ选成了B，bible对B项的解释是：[size=13.3333px]Answer choice (B): This answer choice could be tempting for test takers [size=13.3333px]who do not read closely. Remember, the stimulus states that the ad campaign [size=13.3333px]for FastCar will be released in six months, but advertising will not begin [size=13.3333px]for another three months (only three months prior to the film’s release). This [size=13.3333px]answer choice states that an ad campaign that begins in three months, as [size=13.3333px]FastCar’s will, will be more effective than one that begins in six months [size=13.3333px](which is when the film opens). However, the oddity of this stimulus is not [size=13.3333px]about what would happen if the ads start in six months; the paradox [size=13.3333px]concerns why the ad campaign doesn’t begin now, six months prior to the [size=13.3333px]film’s release. So this answer choice has nothing to do with the facts in the [size=13.3333px]stimulus.
[size=13.3333px]

[size=13.3333px]没理解啊，既然问题的关键在于放弃6个月的advertising而对FastCar选择3个月的ad campaign,那么B项说Fast进行6个月的宣传没有进行3个月的宣传有效果难道不应该是正确的么？

看B选项这句话：Initiating the ad campaign for Fast Car in six months would unquestionably be less effective than initiating the campaign in three months，意思就是在未来的6个月内宣传的效果不如在未来的三个月内宣传好，是说提前三个月宣传，文章的意思是要延后三个月宣传的。

意思可能有点绕。

翻译过来。

题目：一般公司在电影发行前六个月开始宣传，但这部片子这公司打算发行前三个月开始宣传。

选项B：六个月后开始宣传不如三个月后开始宣传有效。

显然题目和B讲的是不同的东西。一个是发行前六个月开始宣传，一个是六个月宣传。
