Which of the following most logically completes the argument below?
According to promotional material published by the city of Springfield, more tourists stay in hotels in Springfield than stay in the neighboring city of Harristown. A brochure from the largest hotel in Harristown claims that more tourists stay in that hotel than stay in the Royal Arms Hotel in Springfield. If both of these sources are accurate, however, the “Report on Tourism” for the region must be in error in stating that ______.
A.   the average length of stay is longer at the largest hotel in Harristown than it is at the Royal Arms Hotel
B.   there is only one hotel in Harristown that is larger than the Royal Arms Hotel
C.   more tourists stay in hotels in Harristown than stay in the Royal Arms Hotel
D.   the Royal Arms Hotel is the largest hotel in Springfield
E.   the Royal Arms Hotel is the only hotel in Springfield
为什么是E？

From the stimulus, we know two facts:
(1) More tourists stay in hotels in Springfield than in neighboring city Harristown
(2) The largest hotel in Harristown claims that more tourists stay in there than in the Royal Arms Hotel in Springfield

Both facts are true. Then the stimulus says that "Report on Tourism" must be wrong by saying the blank (our answer choice). Apparently the Report must have said something controdictory to either one or both of the two facts we just learnt.

Answer choice (B), "the Royal Arms Hotel is the only hotel in Springfield" is correct answer to fill in the blank because if (B) is true, then Fact (2) is true but Fact (1) must be false.

The answer sheet shows E is the correct answer,while my original choice is B.

Read the substance, not just the letter up front, of each answer choices.

the Royal Arms Hotel is the only hotel in Springfield -- that's the correct answer.

旅客在S城住得比在H城住的多，在H城的最大宾馆的旅客比S城R宾馆旅客多。
两个都正确，就是S城不只一个宾馆，要不如果只有R宾馆的话，第一句就不成立。

请问如果R是S的唯一宾馆那么题目说S的旅客比H多就不成立了啊？
这道题我还是没弄懂帮我讲一下可以么谢谢!

在前提下R是S的唯一宾馆,H的某一个旅馆旅客人数就已经大于R旅馆，那么H地的总旅客人数当然就大于S地的旅客了啊。

however, the “Report on Tourism” for the region must be in error in stating that ______.
请问这句话是什么意思？答案选R是S唯一旅店为了削弱谁呢？谢谢

本来我跟你一样，以为这个杂志应该指代条件里的什么东西。
其实它是问题的假设：如果有一本杂志说了以下哪句话肯定是假的？
即使问题改成：如果Jack(人)说了以下哪句话肯定是错误的？答案也是一样的。必须和两者都矛盾。
不知道这么说你懂不懂……
