Q13: In the United States, of the people who moved from one state to another when they retired, the percentage who retired to Florida has decreased by three percentage points over the past ten years. Since many local businesses in Florida cater to retirees, this decline is likely to have a noticeably negative economic effect on these businesses. Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument? - Florida attracts more people who move from
one state to another when they retire than does any other state. - The number of people who move out of Florida to accept
employment in other states has increased over the past ten years. - There are far more local businesses
in Florida that cater to tourists than there are local businesses that cater to retirees. - The total number of people who
retired and moved to another state for their retirement has increased significantly over the past ten years. - The number of people who left Florida when they
retired to live in another state was greater last year than it was ten years ago.
答案是D,不过我觉得答案D中退休的人数目增加了和BUSINESS之间有关系吗?相反,C项中说许多BUSINESS是针对游客而不是针对退休的人的,这说明退休的人数目或PERCENTAGE增减对BUSINESS的影响相对小。 |
