Which of the following most logically completes the argument below?
NowNews, although still the most popular magazine covering cultural events in
Kalopolis, has recently suffered a significant drop in advertising revenue because
of falling circulation. Many readers have begun buying a competing magazine that,
at 50 cents per copy, costs less than NowNews at $1.50 per copy. In order to boost
circulation and thus increase advertising revenue, NowNews’s publisher has
proposed making it available at no charge, but this proposal has a serious
drawback, since  .
(A) Those Kalopolis residents with the greatest interest in cultural events
are regular readers of both magazines.
(B) One reason NowNews’s circulation fell was that its competitor’s
reporting on cultural events was superior.
(C) The newsstands and stores that currently sell NowNews will no longer
carry it if it is being given away for free.
(D) At present, 10 percent of the total number of copies of each issue of
NowNews are distributed free to students on college campuses in the
Kalopolis area.
(E) NowNews’s competitor would begin to lose large amounts of money if it
were forced to lower its cover price.


书店和书摊不分销了而免费派送杂志一定会导致阅读量下降么？答案解释中说，可能会下降，那也可能会提高呢不是么。。。。免费派送了都，大家都来看呀，还用啥分销。。。。看起来B比C要正确呀，B说这个计划根本就没有解决阅读量下降的原因——文章质量不好。
求大神指点分析！

OG正确答案是C
A The fact that certain highly motivated Kalopolis residents still
read NowNews even at a cost of $1.50 per issue leaves open the
possibility that providing the magazine free might still boost readership.
B This suggests that improving its cultural reporting might help NowNews
increase its circulation, not that the publisher’s proposal will fail to do so.
C Correct. If the proposal leads newsstands and stores to stop carrying
NowNews, circulation and advertising revenue would probably decline as a
result.
D Even if 10 percent of the copies of NowNews are already distributed for
free, distributing the remaining 90 percent for free could still increase
circulation and advertising revenue as the publisher intends.
E Forcing a competing magazine to lower its cover price and lose lots of
money would be an advantage rather than a drawback of the proposal, as far
as the publisher of NowNews was concerned

B中只是说文章质量不好是circulation fail 的其中一个原因，如果是全部原因，我们可能要考虑选这个。但目前题目写的是one reason , 而题干中给出了一个fact 就是NN的杂志卖的比较贵，就应该在价格方面做文章（况且题目问的是免费派发有什么缺点？), 那么我们是不是应该选择一个更接近题干要求的答案,即，免费派送的话会出现什么组织circulation fail的情况？  
就跟中文正常思维一样！

方案推理
目标：In order to boost circulation and thus increase advertising revenue
方案：NowNews’s  ...

我理解你的意思，是说选项里面非常直接的提到了方案的不足之处。
但是自己绕来绕去还是不那么明白。

我不明白的是，虽然B没有直接提到方案，但是它的意思在逻辑层面是在说方案没有直指阅读量下降的要害，所以这个方案根本就无法达成目标。
而选项C虽然说了方案的不足，但是这个不足会引起啥呢？看起来也并不一定能够引起阅读量下降，这是个可能性的问题，逻辑上对于目标的达成反而没有很强的指示性。

从字面的角度来说，C的回答更加直接，但是我觉得从意思的角度来说，B才是削弱了方案。
我目前对此题只能理解为做题的时候不要想太多，哪个直接说了问题就选哪个，不要自己进一步推理。。。。

求把我混乱的思维纠正回来

楼主 我觉得你应该看看逻辑的prep，里面有好多解析不错。

我当时脑子也转不过来，后来发现逻辑题是有规 ...

谢谢建议，我刚开始接触逻辑，看了bible之后从OG开始做的，对逻辑的思路理解还很浅薄，我会好好研究一下prep的解析。：）

逻辑题 绕来绕去的很讨厌（真的很讨厌）

在现实中，我觉得每个选项都是对的。

这个回答很好，我有点明白了正确思路是啥样的，多谢！

楼主我是先看了bible，再做prep08，再看OG的，看prep的时候觉得形成了自己的一套思路，但是再看OG觉得完全打乱了，OG里面用了很多Even if，觉得很绕啊。就像这一题的D解释，按我之前的想法就是这个根本就无关，have no effect on能不能说明这个提议有坏处，但是你看OG的解释，我就想不通啊，这个解释再讲些什么，很多OG题的解释都这样，我的思路完全打乱了，希望能和楼主交流交流。
