In the United States, of the people who moved from one state to another when they retired, the percentage who retired to Florida has decreased by three percentage points over the past ten years. Since many local businesses in Florida cater to retirees, these declines are likely to have a noticeably negative economic effect on these businesses and therefore on the economy of Florida.
Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument given?
(A) People who moved from one state to another when they retired moved a greater distance, on average, last year than such people did ten years ago.
(B) People were more likely to retire to North Carolina from another state last year than people were ten years ago.
(C) The number of people who moved from one state to another when they retired has increased significantly over the past ten years.
(D) The number of people who left Florida when they retired to live in another state was greater last year than it was ten years ago.
(E) Florida attracts more people who move from one state to another when they retire than does any other state.
题目分析：原文说到弗罗里达州（后面简称F）退休的人少了，而F州有很多business是为退休人服务的，这方面人少了，这些business会受影响进而影响经济。问驳斥。我听到答案之后应该感觉business不受影响，经济也没事就可以了。我们看选项，A说人move的距离远近，明显无法驳斥，跑题了，杀。B说人们更愿意去北加州，什么乱七八糟的，杀。C退休的总人数上升了，那即便来F州的百分比下降了不也ok嘛，留着。D说离开F州的人，我说的是退休去F州的人，范围上完全风马牛不相及，杀。E说F州吸引退休的人比其他州多，这个选项乍一看也可以，但是吸引人比其他州多和本身到F州的人多是两个概念，即便比其他州多了但是如果人数不是太多（只是比其他州多了）那还是会影响经济，杀。
