Last year the rate of inflation was 1.2 percent, but for
the current year it has been 4 percent. We can
conclude that inflation is on an upward trend and the
rate will be still higher next year.
Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens
the conclusion above?
(A)    The inflation figures were computed on the basis
of a representative sample of economic data
rather than all of the available data.
(B)    Last year a dip in oil prices brought inflation
temporarily below its recent stable annual level
of 4 percent.
(0   Increases in the pay of some workers are tied
to the level of inflation, and at an inflation rate of
4 percent or above, these pay raises constitute
a force causing further inflation.
(D)    The 1.2 percent rate of inflation last year
represented a 10-year low.
(E)    Government intervention cannot affect the rate
of inflation to any significant degree.


A为什不对呢？

我觉得分析这种题关键是找出：
Last Year: 1.2
This Year: 4
=> has a trend to rise up continually
这样一个逻辑的漏洞~~~就是
next year 不会超过 4就行了~~~不用考虑太多~~~（想想美国人其实比我们笨很多~~~）

题目说明的内容就是已经成立的前提,即数据是正确统计出来的.
