Although migraine headaches are believed to be caused by food allergies, putting patients on diets that eliminate those foods to which the patients have been damonstrated to have allergic migraine reactions frequently does not stop deadaches. Obviously, some other cause of migraine headaches besides food allergies must exist.

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

A.many common foods elicit an allergic response only after several days, making it very difficult to observe links between specific foods patients eat and headaches they develop.

B.Food allergies affect many people who never develop the symptom of migraine headaches.

C. Many patients report that the foods that cause them migraine headaches are amongthe foods that they most enjoy eating.

D.very few patients have allergic migraine reactions as children and then live migraine-free adult lives once they have eliminated from their diets foods to which they have been demonstrated to be allergic.

E.very rarely do food allergies cause patients to suffer a symptom more severe than that of migraine headaches.

答案 是A。但A说通常食物要在几天后才有中毒表现，导致要将食物中毒病人和由食物中毒导致的头痛联系起来相当困难。即是讲 食物中毒-->几天后才中毒表现，则表明在发生头痛的前几天肯定是食物以外的因素导致的头痛，那就是支持了原文结论，怎么会是weaken呢？请nns指点。

原文的推倒是现象Ａ不吃导致偏头痛的食物后仍然有偏头痛－－－＞结果Ｂ不光是食物导致偏头痛．

削弱的方法是它因推非Ｂ，既仍然是食物的原因，不是什么其它原因，它因就是Ａ选项．是食物导致的，但是是之前迟到事物所导致，可能有潜伏期～！

但是从A的意思来看，仅仅是many common foods elicit an allergic response，并没说只有food导致偏头痛。请再指点指点！many thanks

a正确、因为改选项提供了一种可能，就是即使表面看起来一些头疼不是由于食物过敏，但是也很可能是因为前几天吃的食物引起->食物过敏仍然是原因-〉削弱原文
