Which of the following, if true, provides evidence that most logically completes the argument below?
According to a widely held economic hypothesis, imposing strict environmental regulations reduces economic growth. This hypothesis is undermined by the fact that the states with the strictest environmental regulations also have the highest economic growth. This fact does not show that environmental regulations promote growth, however, since ______.
A.        those states with the strictest environmental regulations invest the most in education and job training
B.        even those states that have only moderately strict environmental regulations have higher growth than those with the least-strict regulations
C.        many states that are experiencing reduced economic growth are considering weakening their environmental regulations
D.        after introducing stricter environmental regulations, many states experienced increased economic growth
E.        even those states with very weak environmental regulations have experienced at least some growth

答案A

看到第一个选项就排除了，education and job training 为什么能联想到和经济增长有关？如果真的有关的话，也是regulations间接导致的啊？反而是支持了啊
实在是想不通啊

我不是牛人哈，说说我自己的看法。我觉得这是典型的说还有其他原因的啊。。就是前边说很奇怪的事实（那些经济最屌的国家环境限制也最严），然后就说其实这个事实并不是说明环境法规能促进经济增长，是因为。。他意思就是你接一句其他能促进经济增长的就好了啊，你加的只是加强（或者说解释）他前半句的而已。然后促进经济增长的因素，不就是那几个么，投资，消费，教育，提高生产率什么的
