『逻辑因人而异？』请教 FEIFEI LOGIC 135中TEST2 Q27

原题：

27. These days, drug companies and health professionals alike are focusing their attention on cholesterol in the blood. The more cholesterol we have in our blood, the higher the risk that we shall die of a heart attack. The issue is pertinent since heart disease kills more North Americans every year than any other single cause. At least three factors---smoking, drinking, and exercise—can each influence levels of the cholesterol in the blood.

Which one of the following can be properly concluded from the passage?

A.    If a person has low blood cholesterol, then that person’s risk of fatal heart disease is low.
B.    Smoking in moderation can entail as great a risk of fatal heart disease as does heavy smoking.
C.    A high-cholesterol diet is the principal cause of death in North America.
D.    The only way that smoking increases one’s risk of fatal heart disease is by influencing the levels of cholesterol in the blood.
E.    The risk of fatal heart disease can be altered by certain changes in lifestyle.

大概给的是E 解释是可以通过调整抽烟、饮酒、运动等生活方式来减少心脏病的可能性。
这道题我选的是A 原文说The more cholesterol we have in our blood, the higher the risk that we shall die of a heart attack 用咱话说 我们血液中的胆固醇越高 ，我们死于心脏病的可能也就越大 那么A答案If a person has low blood cholesterol, then that person’s risk of fatal heart disease is low 如果一个人的胆固醇低，则他死于心脏病的概率低 这不是真好符合原文吗？
按照E的解释“调整抽烟、饮酒、运动等生活方式来减少心脏病的可能性” 我本来是个健康的大学生 我通过改变我的生活习惯 多抽烟 多喝酒 减少运动 然后我就能减少心脏病的可能性 这个说法本来就是错误的 因为它建立在一个“我一定会改善我的生活条件”的前提上 E选项中用的是CHANGE 而不是 IMPROVEMENT

the higher...the higher在题目中出现是相对关系，在A选项中式绝对的if low... then low, 不准确。
E中的change确实不一定是improvement,但是certain change可以是improvement. 所以这句话逻辑上是正确的。
