In a recent psychological survey, participants aged 40 to 60 were asked to name the song that had made the greatest emotional impact on their lives. Remarkably, in 86 percent of cases, the participant named a song that was popular when he or she was between thirteen and seventeen years old. Clearly, music has an inherently greater emotional effect on teenagers than on people of other ages.

Each of the following, if true, weakens the argument presented above EXCEPT

		All of the other questions asked during the survey centered around the participants' teenage years.
		People are more likely to have deeper emotional responses to life events, and to associate contemporaneous songs with those events, during the teenage years than at other times of life.
		People tend to retain and recall emotionally infused memories with greater depth, detail, and accuracy than other memories.
		People tend to listen to a much greater number of songs during the teenage years than at other times of life.
		Most of the songs cited by the survey respondents retained their popularity for twenty or more years.

问题主要在第二和第三个选项里

题目里的结论是音乐对青少年的内在情感影响比其他年龄段的人更大。第二个选项说比起在人生的其他时期，在青少年时期，人们对生活中发生的事情有更深层的情感反应，更容易将同时期的歌曲与这些事件联系在一起。感觉很好的加强了结论

而答案是第三个，感觉很疑惑求解

谢谢

People are more likely to have deeper emotional responses to life events, and to associate contemporaneous songs with those events, during the teenage years than at other times of life.

这句话的重点是前半句have deeper emotional responses to life events...意思是说人在十几岁（比其他年龄段）的时候更容易对人生产生比较深的情绪变化，并且把这种“深的情绪变化”和当代歌曲联系起来...
这是削弱的，音乐不是原因 ... 音乐不会对teenager产生emotional effect，“作为teenager“”是产生emotional effect原因

People tend to retain and recall emotionally infused memories with greater depth, detail, and accuracy than other memories.

这是明显的加强！这里说人最容易记住那种有情绪输入的记忆with greater depth, detail, and accuracy than other memories. 。。。。而大家都记得十几岁的时候的歌曲，不就正说明了是song对十几岁年轻人有很深的 emotional effect
