The waters off the coast of Iceland are filled with pods of killer whales, which migrate there during the summer. Wildlife parks that rely on the killer whales for entertainment hunt the killer whale almost exclusively in the water of Iceland, because strict sanctions forbid them from doing so off the coast of North America, an area also abundant in killer whales. Since Iceland recently gave into pressure from international groups opposed to the hunting of killer whales, it too will forbid the hunting of killer whales off its coast. Therefore, all wildlife parks will be forced to end their shows featuring killer whales once their current killer whales are unable to perform.

All of the following cast doubt on the conclusion of the argument EXCEPT?

A.The recent ban only extends to within one hundred miles of Iceland, though killer whales are plentiful along the shores of Greenland, which fall outside this range.

B.The incoming prime minister of Canada, who is more conservative, is planning on lifting the ban on hunting killer whales off the coast of Canada.

C.In-park killer whale births have become increasingly common, especially in those wildlife parks that harbor a large number of killer whales.

D.Some wildlife parks are involved in the illegal trade of killer whales.

E.It is nearly impossible to catch killer whales in deep waters, so hunters typically rely on luring killer whales into coves.

看了Explanation也觉得选E最合适，但是考试的时候也有可能会选到AC啊，请大家帮我分析不能选AC的理由？拜谢各位~

Magoosh的解释是这样的：

The argument states that the only place wildlife parks can find killer whales is off the coast of Iceland, yet, with an imminent ban there, wildlife parks will be unable to replenish their respective in-park killer whale populations. Eliminate all the answer choices that call this question into conclusion.

(A) provides a source of killer whales (Greenland), thereby weakening the conclusion.

The argument states that North America is also abundant in killer whale. If Canada lifts its ban, then wildlife park can find killer whale there. (B) is out.

(C) provides a great place to replenish the killer whale population: the park itself. Therefore, (C) directly attacks the argument that wildlife parks will run out of killer whale.

(D) provides a clear means by which parks will acquire killer whales despite all the bans.

(E) does not provide a new means by which parks will acquire new killer whales. It only describes how killer whales are generally caught. Therefore (E) is the answer.

解释贴在一楼了
E说他们都是引诱killer whale到coves里来不用到深水捕，这样不违反ban也能得到killer whale，以此质疑了argument这样

Magoosh的解释不是很清楚吗？
如果是我的话我会看到这个argument的 all wildlife parks, 从这个all下手来weaken argument.
A的area limited直接weaken了argument
C提供了另外一种可能，也就是不再需要去open sea hunt killers whales, 因为park里面本身就有，这样performance也不会end.

而E只是说怎样可以catch killer whales, 这根 park performance是否abated完全没有关系

不是“以下argument都质疑了conclusion，除了__”吗

你的理解和我有微妙的不同欸，所以你是觉得题目问的是哪个不质疑？
我当是问哪个质疑理解的啊，AC都weaken the conclusion了我非常同意啊因为我纠结了下选A还是选C，答案却是E，然后反过来看看挺对的，我的理解是“人家抓killer whale根本不用违反禁令”以此质疑conclusion呐。
