Since it has become known that several of a bank's top executives have been buying shares in their own bank, the bank's depositors, who had been worried by rumors that the bank faced impending financial collapse, have been greatly relieved.  They reason that since top executives evidently have faith in the bank's financial soundness, those worrisome rumors must be false.  They might well be overoptimistic, however since corporate executives have sometimes bought shares in their own company in a calculated attempt to dispel negative rumors about the company's health.
 
In the argument given, the two boldfaced portions play which of the following roles?
文章第一句,since…… 是提出一个东西,然后第二句就是they reason that since……,those worrisome rumors must be false. 我就觉得这一句一定是一个原因了的东西。 而第二句则是一句总结性的句子或者是评价。所以我上来就排了C,D,E,因为它们说第一句是一个conclusion, 而A的couterevidence是不对的,也排了。 剩下B。 做题时,如果只抓住了连接词的意思,容易只停留在表面意思的判断上。而又不可能把原文都读吧。这时该怎么办呢?

Editorial:
 
In Ledland, unemployed adults receive government assistance.  To reduce unemployment, the government proposes to supplement the income of those who accept jobs that pay less than government assistance, thus enabling employers to hire workers cheaply.  However, the supplement will not raise any worker's income above what government assistance would provide if he or she were not gainfully employed.  Therefore, unemployed people will have no financial incentive to accept jobs that would entitle them to the supplement.
 
Which of the following, if true about Ledland, most seriously weakens the argument of the editorial?
这道题,我读完就排除了A,B,C,D,剩下E C说了工作了人找工作会比失业的人找工作工资更高 E说了人们有时接受抵工资的工作是因为他们喜欢这份工作 那时觉得C说的是工作了的和失业的人找工作的比较,觉得他们不和题目相关 而E的喜欢工作则能驳斥原文的have no financial incentive 所以我就选了E,而且还觉得它挺对的 麻烦老师指出我错在哪里了,谢谢。
