Mansour: We should both plan to change some of our investments from coal companies to less polluting energy companies. And here’s why. Consumers are increasingly demanding nonpolluting energy, and energy companies are increasingly supplying it.
Therese: I'm not sure we should do what you suggest. As demand for nonpolluting energy increases relative to supply, its price will increase, and then the more polluting energy will cost relatively less. Demand for the cheaper, dirtier energy forms will then increase, as will the stock values of the companies that produce them.
Therese responds to Mansour’s proposal by doing which of the following?
Advocating that consumers use less expensive forms of energy
Implying that not all uses of coal for energy are necessarily polluting
Disagreeing with Mansour’s claim that consumers are increasingly demanding nonpolluting energy
Suggesting that leaving their existing energy investments unchanged could be the better course
Providing a reason to doubt Mansour’s assumption that supply of nonpolluting energy will increase in line with demand

cde三个选线
e不对,仔细读句意,是说doubt supply of nonpolluting energy will increase这个后者并没有doubt;
c,后者说了Demand for the cheaper, dirtier energy forms will then increase,但是没说Disagreeing that consumers are increasingly demanding nonpolluting energy;并不是非此即彼的关系,不要make extra assumption
