3. Because of the recent recession in Country A most magazines published there have experienced decreases in advertising revenue, so much so that the survival of the most widely read magazines is in grave doubt. At the same time, however, more people in Country A are reading more magazines than ever before, and the number of financially successful magazines in Country A is greater than ever.

Which one of the following, if true, most helps to resole the apparent discrepancy in the information above?

A.    Most magazines reduce the amount they charge for advertisement’s during a recession.
B.    The audience for a successful television show far exceeds the readership of even the most widely read magazine.
C.    Advertising is the main source of revenue only for the most widely read magazines; other magazines rely on circulation for their revenue.
D.    Because of the recession, people in Country A have cut back on magazine subscriptions and are reading borrowed magazines.
E.    More of the new general interest magazines that were launched this year in Country A have survived than survived in previous years.
解释说C答案抓住了分歧点：the most widely read magazines和financially successful magazines的区别 我怎么也读不懂 什么区别……

“Resolve the paradox”这种题目，原文是没有结论的。
一方面，经济危机->大多数杂志广告收入下降-> most widely read杂志生存堪忧
另一方面，看杂志的人多了，赚钱的杂志比以前也更多了。
要求：解释这个矛盾。
Resolve the paradox:
广告收入下降has happened.
Normally this would be杂志的生存危机更大.
This time, 赚钱的杂志比以前更多了

原文的几个概念不相等，most magazines不等于most widely read magazines不等于financially successful magazines，结合common sense可以翻译一下原文场景：
“在经济危机中，几个头部杂志社受到重创，但是一些小的赚钱的杂志社却变多了”
为什么：因为头部杂志社依赖广告收入更多，小杂志社更多是依靠单纯的发行量。

Takeaway:
•        重视概念/名词/事物的限定词、范围/特征等有没有变化，有没有偷换概念，前后说的究竟是不是一样的东西。
•        答案必须使原文相矛盾的事物不矛盾，或都是真，都成立。paradox的两方面都要解释了不矛盾才行，不能只说一侧。
