Kernland imposes a high tariff on the export of unprocessed cashew nuts in order to ensure that the nuts are sold to domestic processing plants.  If the tariff were lifted and unprocessed cashews were sold at world market prices, more farmers could profit by growing cashews.  However, since all the processing plants are in urban areas, removing the tariff would seriously hamper the government’s effort to reduce urban unemployment over the next five years.

Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument?

1. Some of the by-products of processing cashews are used for manufacturing paints and plastics.

2. Other countries in which cashews are processed subsidize their processing plants.

3. More people in Kernland are engaged in farming cashews than in processing them.

4. Buying unprocessed cashews at lower than world market prices enables cashew processors in Kernland to sell processed nuts at competitive prices.

5. A lack of profitable crops is driving an increasing number of small farmers in Kernland off their land and into the cities.

求教各位GGJJ，这题为什么选E？ 小妹甚是不解

LZ搜索一下看看有无前人讨论过这题.

个人觉得这题有写错的地放.

However, since all the processing plants are in urban areas, removing the tariff would seriously hamper the government’s effort to reduce urban unemployment over the next five years.

我觉得那个removing 要该成adding后,E才能说的通.

LZ这题可以放过不看了.

E使得城市就业压力更大，所以不取消税收也是不行的。

不是吧

应该weak的应该是unemployment的问题啊
