Which of the following most logically completes the argument below?

According to promotional material published by the city of Springfield, more tourists stay in hotels in Springfield than stay in the neighboring city of Harristown.A brochure from the largest hotel in Harristown claims that more tourists stay in that hotel than stay in the Royal Arms Hotel in Springfield.If both of these sources are accurate, however, the “Report on Tourism” for the region must be in error in stating that ___


A. the average length of stay is longer at the largest hotel in Harristown than it is at the Royal Arms Hotel

B. there is only one hotel in Harristown that is larger than the Royal Arms Hotel

C. more tourists stay in hotels in Harristown than stay in the Royal Arms Hotel

用排除法比较快
你可以自己先考虑一下整体与个体的关系
根据promotional material, S city的旅馆的人多比H city多，但是Brochure说， largest  Hotel in H city的游客入住的比 RA hotel in S city多。前提告诉你说2个说法都对，那么说明什么，只能是 S city还有很多家旅馆，那么总和才能比过H city。
A. the average length of stay is longer at the largest hotel in Harristown than it is at the Royal Arms Hotel    比的是入住的时间，无关

B. there is only one hotel in Harristown that is larger than the Royal Arms Hotel          跟大小无关

C. more tourists stay in hotels in Harristown than stay in the Royal Arms Hotel              重复原文的内容，并无帮助

D. the Royal Arms Hotel is the largest hotel in Springfield  跟大小无关

E. the Royal Arms Hotel is the only hotel in Springfield  就剩下E，选他了

讨论一下，我觉得这题跟数学的DS题目好像啊。。。就是根据条件判断哪个结论是充分的。

我觉得是不是B和D并不是无关选项，而是无法判断呢。。。因为根据条件，B和D的结论都是有可能成立，有可能不成立的，H城可能有好几个hotels而且游客可能比RA hotel多或者少，都不影响S城的总游客数比H多的事实，只有E选项是完全不肯能的，否则绝不可能满足S游客多于H的前提条件了。
