7、Last year, support for the social and behavioral sciences represent only about three percent of the government’s total budget for research funds in the United States. Thus, the particularly sharp reductions imposed on such programs this year seem dictated not by financial constraints but by social philosophy.
Which of the following is an assumption on which the conclusion of the passage above is based?
A. The government funds allocated for research in the social and behavioral sciences are not sufficient for the work that needs to be done.
B. The social and behavioral sciences are as valuable as the physical and biological sciences.
C. The current reductions will stop research in the social and behavioral sciences.
D. Government funding is the primary source of research money in the United States.
E. Three percent is an insignificant portion of the government’s total budget for research funds.
答案是E，我选的是D
我觉得D是个不错的答案，排除了其他因素对于社会科学的支持。。。
不能理解答案~~~E不是应该是加强吗？我觉得~~
PS：陈向东的书里是不是有一些答案是错的？还是我水平问题，理解不了正确答案?
谢谢诸位~~~
