12. The fewer restrictions there are on the advertising of legal services, the more lawyers there are who advertise their services, and the lawyers who advertise a specific service usually charge less for that service than lawyers who do not advertise. Therefore, if the state removes any of its current restrictions, such as the one against advertisements that do not specify fee arrangements, overall consumer legal costs will be lower than if the state retains its current restrictions.
Which of the following, if true, would most seriously weaken the argument concerning overall consumer legal costs?
B. The state is unlikely to remove all of the restrictions that apply solely to the advertising of legal services.
E. Most lawyers who advertise specific services do not lower their fees for those services when they begin to advertise.
我对答案没有问题,是E。但我想问的是B是否有削弱作用(虽然可能没有E那么作用强)?因为题干中说if the state removes any of its current restrictions,overall consumer legal costs will be lower……即如果取消了任何(或者所有)的限制,那么费用才会降低。B中说不大可能取消所有的限制,所以是否可以推出B中所说的条件没有满足题中所述条件,所以不大会使费用降低,从而达到削弱作用。
先谢谢了,NN!!
