Q40: GWD-4-20
Community activist:  If Morganville wants to keep its central shopping district healthy, it should prevent the opening of a huge SaveAll discount department store on the outskirts of Morganville.  Records from other small towns show that whenever SaveAll has opened a store outside the central shopping district of a small town, within five years the town has experienced the bankruptcies of more than a quarter of the stores in the shopping district.

The answer to which of the following would be most useful for evaluating the community activist’s reasoning?

A.    Have community activists in other towns successfully campaigned against the opening of a SaveAll store on the outskirts of their towns?
B.    Do a large percentage of the residents of Morganville currently do almost all of their shopping at stores in Morganville?
C.    In towns with healthy central shopping districts, what proportion of the stores in those districts suffer bankruptcy during a typical five-year period?
D.    What proportion of the employees at the SaveAll store on the outskirts of Morganville will be drawn from Morganville?
E.     Do newly opened SaveAll stores ever lose money during their first five（文章说的是五年内） years of operation?

答案是C，我选的是B，outskirt 属不属于这个M的范围？我不明白C的推理？题目明明是要求能够评价作者的推理过程啊？C好像与推理过程没有什么关系吧？

文章最关键的地方是experienced the bankruptcies of more than a quarter of the stores in the shopping district

题干的核心是要evaluate whether the S contribute to the 25% bankruptcies .

所以要和不受S影响的地方比较
