Industrialists from the country Distopia was accused of promoting the Distopiian intervention in the Arcadian civil war merely to insure that the industrialists' facilities in Arcadia made substantial profits during the war. Yet this cannot be the motive since, as the Distopian foresaw, Distopia's federal expenses for the intervention were eight billion dollars, whereas, during the war, profits from the Distopian industrialists' facilities in Arcadia totaled only four billion dollars.

Which of the following, if true, exposes a serious flaw in the argument made in the second sentence above?

A. During the Arcadian war, many Distopian industrialists with facilities located in Arcadia experienced a significant rise in productivity in their facilities located in Distopia

B. The largest proportion of Distopia;s federal expenses is borne by those who receive no significant industrial profits.

C. Most distopian industrialists' facilities located in Arcadia are expected to maintain the level of profits they achieved during the war.

D, Distopian industrialists' facilities in Arcadia made substantial profits before the events that triggered the civil war.

E. Many Distopians expressed concern over the suferring that Arcadians underwnt during the civil war.

The answer is B, but I don't know why. I'm not sure what "is borne by" means here.

题目结论说的是这些industrialists的动机并不是substantial profits during the war,因为D预测到D为intervention付出的federal expenses是8billion,而在战争中,这些industrialists得到的利润总共也才4个billion.表面上看是入不敷出.问削弱,也就是说可能profits就是industrialists去intervene A内战的动力.

B说的是D的federal expenses也就是那8billion的钱是那些没有得到利润的人出的,也就是说不是那些industrialists出的,结果就是那些industrialists得到了4个billion的利润,没出什么钱,那么不就刚好说明了利润确实是他们干涉A内战的原因吗?

不知道有没有说清楚.

嗯，很清楚了，谢谢啦
