Which of the following, if true, provides evidence that most
logically completes the argument below?

    

 

    

According to a widely held economic hypothesis, imposing
strict environmental regulations reduces economic growth.  This hypothesis is undermined by the fact
that the states with the strictest environmental regulations also have the
highest economic growth.  This fact does not
show that environmental regulations promote growth, however, since ______.

    

 

    

1. those states with the
        strictest environmental regulations invest the most in education and job
        training
2. even those states that have
        only moderately strict environmental regulations have higher growth than
        those with the least-strict regulations
3. many states that are
        experiencing reduced economic growth are considering weakening their
        environmental regulations
4. after introducing stricter
        environmental regulations, many states experienced increased economic
        growth
5. even those states with very
        weak environmental regulations have experienced at least some growth

    

 A有点意思， E也有点意思

大家可以讨论一下吗？

I like A rather than E. A introduces another information to support the gist of the last sentence. But E uses "those" and "some" only,which sounds not strong to refute.

acutally i dont like any of the answers, A-> there's no direct relation between education, job  training and economic growth.
E-> some growth does not make a comparsion with that of states having strictest regulations.

Ａ

The answer ahould be A

The question say it was strictest environmental regulations-->economic growth

Choice A rules out the factor of regulations and proveds other cause.

Therefore A is the best answer

还是没想通，有人能指点吗？

试着解释一下，

问题问的是environmental regulations 没有导致 growth

A 正好说明了growth 不是environmental regulations 带来的，而是invest in education and job training 带来的，只不过这些invest in education and job training的 states 正好是那些有 strictest environmental regulations 的states

我开始也选成 E 了

LOUI1121

the question is asking us why strciter environmental regulations enhance the economic growth.
only A, explain why.
E only states a fact, does not explain why.
so the answer is A

这题正如shanexwang所说，A，E都有毛病。A给出的教育和培训的投入与经济增长并没有指明关系。我怀疑原题是不是应该后面有which lead to economy growth。总之，再讨论已经没有意义了

strict environmental regulations reduces economic growth被作者否定

environmental regulations promote growth被作者也否定了。

那就是环境控制和经济的关系没有定论啦！

我觉得选C对了。

many states that are experiencing reduced economic growth are considering weakening their environmental regulations
