Political Advertisement:



Mayor Delmont’s critics complain about the jobs that were lost in the
city under Delmont’s leadership.  Yet the fact is that not only
were more jobs created than were eliminated, but the average pay for
these new jobs has been higher than the average pay for jobs citywide
every year since Delmont took office.  So there can be no question
that throughout Delmont’s tenure the average paycheck in this city has
been getting steadily bigger.



Which of the following, if true, most strengthens the argument in the advertisement?



A.The average pay for jobs created in the city during the past three
years was higher than the average pay for jobs created in the city
earlier in Mayor Delmont’s tenure.

B.Average pay in the city was at a ten-year low when Mayor Delmont took office.

C.Some of the jobs created in the city during Mayor Delmont’s tenure have in the meantime been eliminated again.

D.The average pay for jobs eliminated in the city during Mayor
Delmont’s tenure has been roughly equal every year to the average pay
for jobs citywide.

E.The average pay for jobs in the city is currently higher than it is for jobs in the suburbs surrounding the city.



这道题给的答案是C，但是过去大家讨论的答案是D,我也觉得D较C更好一些，但是A怎么样呢？A说过去三年的平均工资比Delmont市长任职初期高，我
想这样不是去除了这样一个可能就是：原来这个市的工资就高，Delmont当了市长后，慢慢降低工资，最后虽然平均工资还是比cityside
average高，但是整体趋势下降了呢？？



请NN们指教， thanks in advanced

a根本不能解决问题。题目给出的是strengthens the arguement-So there can be no question
that throughout Delmont’s tenure the average paycheck in this city has
been getting steadily bigger.但是a说的是过去3年average pay 大于 在M早期任期内的pay.有2个问题 1 我们不知道M的任期是几年，如果M才上任2年，那么3年前的PAY就不是在他的任期内，就是说工资反而降低了。 2 就算3年内都是M的任期，但是这只是在他任期内的比较，不涉及他的任期与非他任期内工资的比较，能说明什么呢？只能说明在他任期内，PAY涨了，可是说不定没有前一个某人的任期内工资高。

我不是NN，只是个人推断，请指教！
