GWD-23-Q39
In Gandania, where the government has a monopoly on tobacco sales, the incidence of smoking-related health problems has risen steadily for the last twenty years. The health secretary recently proposed a series of laws aimed at curtailing tobacco use in Gandania. Profits from tobacco sales, however, account for ten percent of Gandania’s annual revenues. Therefore, Gandania cannot afford to institute the proposed laws.
Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument?
A.    All health care in Gandania is government-funded.
B.    Implementing the proposed laws is not likely to cause a significant increase in the amount of tobacco Gandania exports.
C.    The percentage of revenue Gandania receives from tobacco sales has remained steady in recent years.
D.    rofits from tobacco sales far surpass any other single source of revenue for the Gandanian government.
E.    No government official in Gandania has ever previously proposed laws aimed at curtailing tobacco use.

今晚有朋友跟我这样解释的：

“这道题其实真不难，一句话概括就是羊毛出在羊身上咯
说禁烟不好因为损健康，又说禁烟好因为挣钱，所以只能忍受损健康。weaken就是挣钱有啥用，还得掏钱给人去看病。”

答案是A。我自己后来想了想，觉得要是weaken原文结论的话，主要也就是在选项中找出”颁布禁令但并不影响profits"的方法，也只有A（所有的Health Care是政府资助的）这一项才能实现。选项D当时对我有很大的干扰性，里面虽然谈到了Profits，但是又是那种跟other来比然后扯远了的选项，一样的伎俩，以后可不能再这样犯错了，呵呵。

算是补充完这道题了，看看其他NN还有没有什么补充~

个人觉得关键就是了解 推论和结论，因为问题问的是要weaken
政府没有钱去禁烟，因为烟是税收的大头

这种题得用排除法比较保险
A 保留
B 出口什么的，无关
C 烟利润稳定，无关
D 烟是最大的税收来源，加强了原来的结论
E 和题目无关

这一点我同意，如果原文里面没有转折的意思的话，那么一开始的那句话就很关键，基本提示了答案。要是有转折的情况下，则是要考虑转折部分的内容。要是在结论那里出现的新的内容，这个时候优先考虑结论里面的新内容。基本上一道逻辑题就推过来了，呵呵。

本题立场 是说虽然烟草近些年来引发得病率急剧增加，因为由于烟草赚钱并且占了政府收入的10%因此不能够说通过legislation去ban烟草。那么需要削弱则去削弱由于利润才不能够去ban这个观点。
Ｅ明显的是无关选项，ＣＤ都有所加强原文的观点，都说烟草占得收入比重太大了，Ｂ是无关选项，由于题目中并没有说明ｅｘｐｏｒｔ的收入部分占了政府收入的多少，所以没有办法进行判断。Ａ说了因为所有的ｈｅａｌｔｈ　ｃａｒｅ　都是政府掏钱因此得出了，政府需要花钱给因为抽烟的病人去花钱看病，还不如不卖烟卖烟。
