Lightbox, Inc., owns almost all of the movie theaters in Washington
County
and has
announced plans to double the number of movie screens it has in the county
within five
years. Yet attendance at Lightbox’s theaters is only just large enough for
profitability
now and the county’s population is not expected to increase over the next
ten years.
Clearly, therefore, if there is indeed no increase in population,
Lightbox’s new screens
are unlikely to prove profitable.
Which of the following, if true about Washington
County,
most seriously weakens the
argument?
A. Though little change in the size of the population is expected, a
pronounced shift
toward a younger, more affluent, and more entertainment-oriented
population is
expected to occur.
B. The sales of snacks and drinks in its movie theaters account for more
of
Lightbox’s profits than ticket sales do.
C. In selecting the mix of movies shown at its theaters, Lightbox’s policy
is to avoid
those that appeal to only a small segment of the moviegoing population.
D. Spending on video purchases, as well as spending on video rentals, is
currently no
longer increasing.
E. There are no population centers in the county that are not already
served by at
least one of the movie theaters that Lightbox owns and operates.
咱们大家讨论一下吧,说说都选啥a,b,c???
