Which of the following most logically completes the argument below?
Twenty percent of the stores in Morganville's downtown shopping district will fail within five years because they will be competing directly with the SaveMart discount department store newly opened in East Morganville.  The downtown shopping district has lost business at this rate before and has always completely rebounded.  Confidence that it will rebound again from the losses it is now about to suffer is ill founded, however, because __________.
A. the stores likely to be put out of business by direct competition from SaveMart are the downtown shopping district's anchor stores, on whose ability to draw shoppers many of the other downtown stores depend
B. the bus line that has long connected the downtown area of Morganville with East Morganville has a tradition of carrying shoppers who reside in East Morganville into downtown Morganville to shop
C. when the downtown shopping district has rebounded before, the business premises of a failed business were typically taken over by a business of the same kind as had been there before
D. SaveMart's business plan for the East Morganville store is based on earning low profits, if any, during the first five years of the store's existence
E. it is conceivable that the downtown shopping district could shrink substantially without collapsing altogether

我选C, 答案是A, 怎么会是A呢? anchor store什么意思? 我记得是OG还是GWD有道原题啊...
谢谢!

原题根本没提anchor store，怎么会是A呢？？？

以前都会恢复 这次不会恢复 这次不会恢复的原因是 以前很多店都是依靠anchor store重新崛起的 然而这次 anchor store 也在竞争中不行了 因此没有一个能带动别的店的顾客的主心骨 因此不行了
没有说不提到就不行呀

我的理解是,题干没有提,就不知道之前恢复的时候,是否与anchor store有关,之前垮的是不是anchor store, anchor store在business中起到的作用，这些都不知道

那A又从何成立呢?

ccronaldo

题干没有提 后面提出来 也不一定错 后面提出来新定义 将题干里面的内容很好的连了起来 就可以 题目中倒闭和崛起中间明显缺一样东西 anchored store的出现正好填补了这个 将两者连起来了 就正好嘛 explain的题目没有说不能出现新事物吧？

同意楼上。而且C选项是说，以前的恢复是在同类型商店的竞争，题目中没说现在这个新开的和旧的是不是同类型的，只是新的叫discount department store，旧的没提到是什么，无法判断是否同类，C选项也就无法提供论据了。
