The tobacco industry is still profitable and projections are that it will remain so.In the United States this year, the total amount of tobacco sold by tobacco farmers has increased, even though the number of adults who smoke has decreased.

Each of the following, if true, could explain the simultaneous in tobacco sales and decrease in the number of adults who smoke EXCEPT:
(A)During this year,the number of women who have begun to smoke is greater than the number of men who have quit smoking.
A为错误选项，reasonging:If the number of women begin to smoke is greater than the number of men who quit,then the number of adult American smokers has increased.

women和men都应该包括成年人和未成年人,增加或减少的人数有可能是未成年人,the number of adult American smokers has increased 说不通啊!?

(A)During this year,the number of women who have begun to smoke is greater than the number of men who have quit smoking.

没那么包括吧.

就是指成年人.

我记得似乎其他选择提出了未成年人的问题.

LZ,A中包括未成年人是你自己的推理.不是题目的.

CR不要有妄自推理..
