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 ______.
Which of the following most logically completes the argument given? People in isolated rain-forest communities tend to live on a largely vegetarian diet, and they eat little salt. Few of them suffer from high blood pressure, and their blood pressure does not tend to increase with age, as is common in industrialized countries. Such people often do develop high blood pressure when they move to cities and adopt high-salt diets. Though suggestive, these facts do not establish salt as the culprit in high blood pressure, however, because _____. genetic factors could account for the lack of increase of blood pressure with age among such people people eating high-salt diets and living from birth in cities in industrialized societies generally have a tendency to have high blood pressure it is possible to have a low-salt diet while living in a city in an industrialized country there are changes in other aspects of diet when such people move to the city salt is a necessity for human life, and death can occur when the body loses too much salt 这两道逻辑题是类似的都是一种驳斥,第一道选A,当时我选成了E,因为我觉得选项应该在文章提及的范围,但徐老师说驳斥题可以有新内容的加入.但下面这题我当初选的A 英老师的解释是要在文章范围里驳斥,所以我就有点纠结,理不清这两题了,望老师解答

A theory is either true or false.  Galileo's observations of Jupiter's satellites showed that the Ptolemaic theory of the motion of celestial bodies is false.  Therefore, since the Copernican theory of planetary motion is inconsistent with the Ptolemaic account, Galileo's observations of Jupiter's satellites proved the truth of the Copernican theory.
 
The argument above is open to the objection that it makes the questionable assumption that
原文说伽利略的观察可以证明P的理论是错的。又说P和C的理论是inconsistent,从而可以证明C的理论是对的。那不就是说P和C是一对一错嘛?E不是支持的吗?还是说我把问题理解错了?

Archaeologist: Researchers excavating a burial site in Cyprus found a feline skeleton lying near a human skeleton. Both skeletons were in the same sediment at the same depth and equally well-preserved, suggesting that the feline and human were buried together about 9,500 years ago. This shows that felines were domesticated around the time farming began, when they would have been useful in protecting stores of grain from mice.

Which of the following, if true, would most seriously weaken the archaeologist’s argument?
