GWD12-Q21:
In January of last year the Moviemania chain of movie theaters started propping its popcorn in canola oil, instead of the less healthful coconut oil that it had been using until then.  Now Moviemania is planning to switch back, saying that the change has hurt popcorn sales.  That claim is false, however, since according to Moviemania’s own sales figures, Moviemania sold 5 percent more popcorn last year than in the previous year.

Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the argument against Moviemania’s claim?

Total sales of all refreshments at Moviemania’s movie theaters increased by less than 5 percent last year.
Moviemania makes more money on food and beverages sold at its theaters than it does on sales of movie tickets.
Moviemania’s customers prefer the taste of popcorn popped in coconut oil to that of popcorn popped in canola oil.
Total attendance at Moviemania’s movie theaters was more than 20 percent higher last year than the year before.
The year before last, Moviemania experienced a 10 percent increase in popcorn sales over the previous year.
正确答案是A，其他选项都明白了，可是看不懂E为什么错

A怎么支持的
关键是这种类型的支持 方式可以怎么总结?
支持可以总结为
有因既有果支持 无果则无因支持 架桥支持 无他因支持 结果事实存在支持
请问还有补充么?这题A怎么总结的?

E项是前年和去年销售量的比较，对argument不支持也不反对。
也可以这么理解原来用cocount oil 时，年增量是10%，而现在改用canola oil，年增量减少到5%，也是对销售的变相不利。是对Moviemania's claim 的支持，而不是对反对M's claim 的观点的支持。

我是这么理解的，不一定对，请NN指点

前年和大前年的比较和去年的换油是没有关系的啊~~
