Editorial in Krenlandian Newspaper:
 
Krenland's steelmakers are losing domestic sales because of lower-priced imports, in many cases because foreign governments subsidize their steel industries in ways that are banned by international treaties.  But whatever the cause, the cost is ultimately going to be jobs in Krenland's steel industry.  Therefore, it would protect not only steel companies but also industrial employment in Krenland if our government took measures to reduce cheap steel imports.
 
Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the editorial's argument?
这道题我排除剩下了CD,当时原文不太清晰,只记得是:国内steel的销售下滑,因为进口的steel价钱很低,这样进口商的国家非法给他们补贴了。同时就业率也被影响,要求政府减少进口。 我觉得CD都有点挨着,觉得D驳斥了原文说进口steel之所以便宜是因为有补贴,于是错选了D 希望老师能指导一下原文读的不太顺,又剩下两个选项无法判断谁是驳斥的时候该怎么思考? 是找一个和原文贴合程度最高最直接的吗?
