OG-45

45. The tobacco industry is still profitable and projections are that it will remain so. In the United States this year, the total amount of tobacco sold by tobacco-farmers has increased, even though the number of adult who smoke has decreased.



Each of the following, if true, could explain the simultaneous increase in tobacco sales and decrease in the number of adults who smoke EXCEPT:



A.      During this year, the number of women who have begun to smoke id greater than the number of men who have quit smoking.


B.      The number of teenage children who have begun to smoke this year is greater than the number of adult who have quit smoking during the same period.


C.      During this year, the number of nonsmokers who have begun to use chewing tobacco or snuff is greater than the number of people who have quit smoking.


D.     The people who have continued to smoke consume more tobacco per person than they did in the past.


E.   More of the cigarettes made in the US this year were exported to other countries than was the case last year.


这道题答案为A,没什么疑问.我的问题是E只说了出口的更多了,好像并不能说明TOBACCO的增加,同时吸烟者的减少吧?有可能吸烟者并没有减少啊?不知道是不是我专牛角尖了?


请赐教,谢谢

E应该是可以解释在increase和decrease的差异下,可以still profitable.目的在后者,而不是要解释吸烟者的减少.个人意见

文章的要求是解释为什么出现“the simultaneous increase in tobacco sales and decrease in the number of adults who smoke ”的相反情况。
