请教nn此题的解题思路是什么？

先谢了

原文的逻辑是电视的时间会因为使用电脑时间增加而下降，since it had been assumed that people lack sufficient free time to maintain current television-viewing levels while spending increasing amounts of free time on the computer.

E.Whether the survey respondents’ reports of time spent using computers included time spent using computers at work

如果肯定，则using computers的时间增加并没有占用free time而是占用了work时的时间

如果否定，则可得出原文的结论The growing popularity of computer-based activities was widely expected to result in a decline in television viewing 是evidently false

Thank you very much. liquid_84

I am clear now.

同谢！

关键在于题目中的“amounts of free time”，

结论的特殊性和具体性真是怎么强调都不过分
