窃以为这一篇文的意思是：因为B日报是out-of-town企业，所以B更具有客观性（看real voice），而和coverage没有关系，所以即使选项B说了coverage少，也无法辩驳B日报的不足；但是D选项说了众多编辑记者都在town里生活了很长时间，这个对客观性是有负作用的，所以削弱了结论。

这题我在B和E上面徘徊了好一阵……
题目给出的论据是：G同学作为一个 experienced labor organizer 和 former head of one of the nation’s most powerful labor unions
结论是：G是一个excellent choice to chair the new council on business-labor relations
A选项只是复述了一下题目给出的论据，而且还是伪劣复述（因为G同学已经不是现任leader了，但A没作区分地说明了leader的作用）
C本身就已经有问题，G显然是representative for labor的，G还需要和labor union交谈干嘛……
D项不能说明问题，尽管council很多人是business那一边的，也不能说明labor这一边就一定要选G同学

而B之所以不行，我觉得是因为E比B直接：
B的逻辑需要二次推导：因为G曾经和business leader有良好关系，所以说明他是有能力和business那一伙交流的（第一次推导），所以结合他之前的那些身份，他应该要chair the council（第二次推导）
E的陈述很绝对，only这个词就表现出来了，语感上觉得E比B更能strengthen；最重要的是E比B直接，E是直接陈述了B和自己人(labor union)的协调能力，用这个ability of understanding the needs直接来支持他来chair the council(这里是一次推导，也是仅此一次)
