Political Advertisement:

Mayor Delmont’s critics complain about the jobs that were lost in the city under Delmont’s leadership.  Yet the fact is that not only were more jobs created than were eliminated, but the average pay for these new jobs has been higher than the average pay for jobs citywide every year since Delmont took office.  So there can be no question that throughout Delmont’s tenure the average paycheck in this city has been getting steadily bigger.

Which of the following, if true, most strengthens the argument in the advertisement?

1. The average pay for jobs created in the city during the past three years was higher than the average pay for jobs created in the city earlier in Mayor Delmont’s tenure.
2. Average pay in the city was at a ten-year low when Mayor Delmont took office.
3. Some of the jobs created in the city during Mayor Delmont’s tenure have in the meantime been eliminated again.
4. The average pay for jobs eliminated in the city during Mayor Delmont’s tenure has been roughly equal every year to the average pay for jobs citywide.
5. The average pay for jobs in the city is currently higher than it is for jobs in the suburbs surrounding the city.

请问本题题干问:strengthens the argument? 请问argument是指:Mayor Delmont’s critics complain about the jobs that were lost in the city under Delmont’s leadership还是So there can be no question that throughout Delmont’s tenure the average paycheck in this city has been getting steadily bigger? 因为答案讨论了很久, 大家觉得是D. 谢谢!

是D，文中说Delmon执政期间提供的新工作多于失去的工作，而且新工作的工资高于平均水平，D说失去的工作工资等于平均水平，这样总的平均工资就越来越高了。

Delmont’s tenure the average paycheck in this city has been getting steadily bigger, 那答案为什么是D, D是削弱呀?

 我的理解：So there can be no question that throughout Delmont’s tenure the average paycheck in this city has been getting steadily bigger是argument , 也是最后的结论！
