8.    Teenagers are often priced out of the labor market by the government-mandated minimum-wage level because employers cannot afford to pay that much for extra help. Therefore, if Congress institutes a subminimum wage, a new lower legal wage for teenagers, the teenage unemployment rate, which has been rising since 1960, will no longer increase.

Which of the following, if true, would most weaken the argument above?

(A) Since 1960 the teenage unemployment rate has risen when the minimum wage has risen.

(B) Since 1960 the teenage unemployment rate has risen even when the minimum wage remained constant.

(C) Employers often hire extra help during holiday and warm weather seasons.

(D) The teenage unemployment rate rose more quickly in the 1970’s than it did in the 1960’s.（B）

(E) The teenage unemployment rate has occasionally declined in the years since 1960's

前提:未雇佣率是因为最低工资太高

结论:一个新的最低工资能使从1960's就一直升高的未雇佣率停止升高.

答案B:自从1960's以来,甚至当最低工资不变时,未雇佣率还是上升.

如果对题目和选项理解没错,B怎么能削弱结论呢?最低工资不提高,未雇佣率本来就会升高嘛!

A为什么不行呢:最底工资升高的时候未雇佣率也升高.说明了即使新的最低工资出现也不一定能改变从60's持续升高的未雇佣率

肯定是自己掉进了旋涡,有点分特了

望解答,谢谢!

你对题目的意思的理解应该是没有问题的．可是逻辑关系和考点把握的不好．

本题要削弱说明的是最低工资和 unemployment rate 是没有什么关系的．正好Ｂ就在说明这一点．

而Ａ却说 Since 1960 the teenage unemployment rate has risen when the minimum wage has risen.

隐含的意思就是 minimum wage 升了unemployment rate 也就升了．这明明就是起到了反作用．
