这道题为什么不能是A

Jennifer:  Video rental outlets in Centerville together handled 10,000 fewer video rentals in 1994 than in 1993.  The decline in rentals was probably due almost entirely to the February 1994 opening of Videorama, the first and only video rental outlet in the area that, in addition to renting videos, also sold them cheaply.

 

Brad:  There must be another explanation:  as you yourself said, the decline was on the order of 10,000 rentals.  Yet Videorama sold only 4,000 videos in 1994.

 

Which of the following, if true, would most seriously weaken the force of the objection that Brad presents to Jennifer's explanation?

 

(A) In 1994 Videorama rented out more videos than it sold.

(B) In 1994 two new outlets that rent but that do not sell videos opened in Centerville.

(C) Most of the video rental outlets in Centerville rent videos at a discount on certain nights of the week.

(D) People often buy videos of movies that they have previously seen in a theater.

(E) People who own videos frequently loan them to their friends.

Brad的意思就是说租得多买的少，题目要Weaken Brad。

A有说了一遍租得多买的少，MS没用啊。

Plus:  请楼主把题目的编号写在标题栏中，便于大家回答，也别于以后的兄弟姐妹查询。

非常感谢。

我觉得应该选A阿

Brad观点是，outlet少了10000笔生意，可是V只卖了4000笔，所以一定还有其他原因导致另外6000笔

A的意思是，V虽然只卖了4000笔，但是租的比卖得还多，也至少是4000笔，那基本就没有什么其他原因了，这样削弱了B对J的反驳

相当不好意思，看错题目了。真抱歉。

Brad实际的意思是： 租Video少了的原因，不是因为卖Video的原因。驳这个。

A说租的多买的少，并没有驳斥Brad

E说买Video的人把Video借给亲友（这些亲友本来有可能会去租Video），这样就填补了6000的坑，说明租Video少了的原因，还是因为卖Video的原因。驳斥了Brad。

抱歉啊！
