A、During the year following the tax increase, the pretax price of a pack of cigarettes did not increase by as much as it had during the year prior to the tax increase.
B、The one percent fall in cigarette sales in the year prior to tax increase was due to a smaller tax increase.

D、For the year following the tax increase, the pretax price of a pack of cigarettes was not eight or more cents lower than it had been the previous year.

For the last five years the Dutch economy has grown faster than Britain, France, or Germany, with the unemployment rate having remained well below that of the other three countries.
我选了D,因为觉得单复数我不敢肯定,所以没想该是economy还是economies。往后面读觉得失业率是经济的一种表现,前后应该是包含关系,应该用有依附关系的with,用了and的话就变成并列了。 请问这个思路出错在哪里呢?是因为我理解错了句子关系还是因为这个点不是重点呢? 如果这点不是重点,那我应该从哪个点找呢? 谢谢老师。

Ecologist:  The Scottish Highlands were once the site of extensive forests, but these forests have mostly disappeared and been replaced by peat bogs.  The common view is that the Highlands' deforestation was caused by human activity, especially agriculture. However, agriculture began in the Highlands less than 2,000 years ago.  Peat bogs, which consist of compressed decayed vegetable matter, build up by only about one foot per 1,000 years and, throughout the Highlands, remains of trees in peat bogs are almost all at depths great than four feet.  Since climate changes that occurred between 7,000 and 4,000 years ago favored the development of peat bogs rather than the survival of forests, the deforestation was more likely the result of natural processes than of human activity.
 
In the ecologist's argument the two portions in boldface play which of the following roles?
