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?

A. The state has recently removed some other restrictions that had limited the advertising of

legal services.

B. The state is unlikely to remove all of the restrictions that apply solely to the advertising of

legal services.

C. Lawyers who do not advertise generally provide legal services of the same quality as

those provided by lawyers who do advertise.

D. Most lawyers who now specify fee arrangements in their advertisements would continue to

do so even if the specification were not required.

E. Most lawyers who advertise specific services do not lower their fees for those services

when they begin to advertise.

D 和 E 让我挣扎了很久，都作不出选择，甚至一度倾向D，正确答案是E，D 是反前提，E是前提成立后反例，

请XDJM指点，这个答案该如何去理解。
