Critical Reasoning
试题详情
题目：
A physically active lifestyle has been shown to help increase longevity. In the Wistar region of Bellaria, the average age at death is considerably higher than in any other part of the country. Wistar is the only mountainous part of Bellaria. A mountainous terrain makes even such basic activities as walking relatively strenuous; it essentially imposes a physically active lifestyle on people. Clearly, this circumstance explains the long lives of people in Wistar.
Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument?
Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument?

B、The Wistar region is one of Bellaria’s least populated regions.
C、Many people who live in the Wistar region have moved there in middle age or upon retirement.
D、The many opportunities for hiking, skiing, and other outdoor activities that Wistar’s mountains offer make it a favorite destination for vacationing Bellarians.
E、Per capita spending on recreational activities is no higher in Wistar than it is in other regions of Bellaria.
答案:
C
提问：
谢谢解答。
做题时，认为几个选项都不合适，勉强选了B，也认为不那么对。对于C选项，看了OG的解释是说长期physically active lifestyle的人才长寿，那么C选项的确是正确的，但是原文中并没有“长期”这个观点，C选项也可以考虑为:正因为他们在中年或者退休后到了山城，才有了physically active lifestyle，使得他们长寿了，加强了观点。
