Airport official: Local residents have been complaining that night fights into Plainsville airport disturb their sleep and should be sharply reduced in number. This complaint is completely unreasonable—there have been night flights coming into the airport from the very beginning, twenty years ago, and these residents should have taken that fact into account when buying their homes.

Which of the following is an assumption on which the airport argument depends?

正确答案: B

Which of the following is an assumption on which the airport argument depends?
A There are fewer night flights now than there were originally
B  The residents who are complaining have been in their current homes fewer than twenty years
C  The residents who are complaining are ignoring the benefits they gain from he presence of the airport
D  The economic success of the airport depends entirely on the existence of the night flights
E   People buying houses in Plainville all avoid buying houses near the airport if they can

答案是B,但为什么E不对?这个假设是指购买飞机场附近的人,都知道晚班飞机的影响,所以在购买房子的时候就已经避免了

这道题我也纠结了很久,但回顾原文the airport argument is 居民的抱怨是不合理的,所以话题的讨论在于“居民的抱怨”或者说“有报怨的居民”。
而E选项,覆盖面太广——在P买房的人都要避免去买靠近机场的房子,这个限定太广,这不是上述结论成立的必要前提。也就是说E取非时,the airport's argument仍然可以成立,如:我在P买房,我并不打算远离机场,因为我不抱怨夜班机的噪声。
所以,根本的问题并不取决于人们是否在机场附近住,而是取决于居民无论住在哪里,听到的噪声是大是小,他们要么已经习惯适应这样的声音不再抱怨、要抱怨的适应不了就逐渐搬离。所以B较E范围更精准,它强调了抱怨的适应不了的人越来越少了。
同样你把B取非,即仍住在这里且要抱怨的居民没有减少或越来越多,那么the airport’s argument——the complaint is completely unreasonable.就站不住脚了~所以B是结论成立的必要前提。
