In Norway, however, where there has been a ban on tobacco advertising since 1975, smoking is at least as prevalent among teen-agers as it is in countries that do not ban such advertising. Which of the following statements draws the most reliable conclusion from the information above? (A) Tobacco advertising cannot be the only factor that affects the prevalence of smoking among teen-agers. (B) Advertising does not play a role in causing teen-agers to start or continue smoking. (C) Banning tobacco advertising does not reduce the consumption of tobacco. (D) More teen-agers smoke if they are not exposed to tobacco advertising than if they are. (E) Most teen-agers who smoked in 1975 did not stop when the ban on tobacco advertising was implemented. the key:A

我的问题是原文中提到In Norway, however, where there has been a ban on tobacco advertising since 1975, smoking is at least as prevalent among teen-agers as it is in countries that do not ban such advertising.不就说明 what effect the Norwegian ban on tobacco advertising had on teenage smoking in Norway了吗??为什么说B到E都因为这点错???
