GWD28-Q9

9. GWD28-Q9:

Early in the twentieth century, Lake
                Konfa became very polluted.  Recently fish populations have recovered as release of industrial pollutants has declined and the lake’s waters have become cleaner.  Fears are now being voiced that the planned construction of an oil pipeline across the lake’s bottom might revive pollution and cause the fish population to decline again.  However, a technology for preventing leaks is being installed.  Therefore, provided this technology is effective, those fears are groundless.

The argument depends on assuming which of the following?

A.    Apart from development related to the pipeline, there will be no new industrial development around the lake that will create renewed pollution in its waters.

B.    Other than the possibility of a leak, there is no realistic pollution threat posed to the lake by the pipeline’s construction.

C.    There is no reason to believe that the leak-preventing technology would be ineffective when installed in the pipeline in Lake
                Konfa.

D.    Damage to the lake’s fish populations would be the only harm that a leak of oil from the pipeline would cause.

E.     The species of fish that are present in Lake
                Konfa now are the same as those that were in the lake before it was affected by pollution.

请问A怎么错了？

我觉得A属于无关选项

选C么

A为什么无关？求解释

题中关注的是这个pipeline，逻辑是technology可以阻止pipeline形成的污染，与其他new industrial development around the lake，无关

是选B吧

assumption的题目经常用not来补充条件

把老题顶出来 想问一下C为什么不对 GWD给的答案是B 但是我觉的C更贴近 C说没有其他原因会导致这个technology失效么
？？？？？？  求大侠解释一下

个人觉得C不是在assumption,更像在加强而且很主观的说
c翻译过来，是说没有理由去相信当在那个湖里安装管道的时候，防泄露的技术是不有效地。
不知道楼上能理解吗？
