Mel: The official salary for judges has always been too low to attract the best Candidates to the job. The legislature’s move to raise the salary has done nothing to improve the situation, because it was coupled with a ban on receiving money for lectures and teaching engagements.

Pat:  No, the raise in salary really does improve the situation. Since very few judges teach or give lectures, the ban will have little or no negative effect.

why not d?

我开始选D，现在我选C

原因是：D答案说，“只否定M，却并没有给出否定的原因”；

其实，细读原文，P其实给出了否定的原因，只是这个原因并不充分，只说数量少，但没有说明每单位的讲座和教学能挣多少钱；也没有说明除了没有负面效应之外，有哪些正面作用，所以不充分，而这恰恰是C答案所表达的。。。

我逻辑最差了，：（   我也觉得自己的解释好像不太对，凑合看吧。

I choose A.

Simply put: Pat's argument only addresses the current judges. Mel's argument includes all candidates. if the best candidates are teaching or lecturing, the approach will not work.

Neither C and E is relevant as both include something that is not covered by Pat. Or, Pat did not make such mistakes.
