大全-D-20

The city council will certainly vote to approve the new downtown redevelopment plan, despite the objections of environmentalists. After all, most of the campaign contributions received by members of the city council come from real estate development firms, which stand to benefit from the plan.

Which of the following statements, if true, would most weaken the argument above?

(A) Several members of the city council receive sizable campaign contributions from environmental lobbying groups.不选A是否是因为most和several的强度不同？

(B) Members of the city council are required to report the size and source of each campaign contribution they receive.

(C) Not every real estate development firm in the city will be able to participate in, and profit from, the new downtown redevelopment plan.

(D) The members of the city council have often voted in ways that are opposed to the interests of their campaign contributors.（D）

(E) Some environmentalists have stated that the new downtown redevelopment plan might be environmentally sound if certain minor modifications are made.

这道T看了讨论贴后明白了D确实是答案，不过觉得A好象也没错...原文说most of the campaign contributions received by members of the city council come from real estate development firms，这正是council will certainly vote to approve the new downtown redevelopment plan的原因，拿了好处就要做事，但是A说Several members of the city council receive sizable campaign contributions from environmental lobbying groups，那council也得了environmental lobbying groups的好处啊，那就也要为他们做事，也就不见得会will certainly vote to approve the new downtown redevelopment plan，所以不也可以削弱吗？还是因为most 和 several 表达数量不同的关系呢？

恳请指教！迷惑中~~

most和several所表达的意思却是不一样；如果那个several表示一两个人，那还有什么意义呢？

而D就没有出现诸如several/some的词汇。
