Editorial:
Regulations recently imposed by the government of Risemia call for unprecedented reductions in the amounts of pollutants manufacturers are allowed to discharge into the environment. It will take costly new pollution control equipment requiring expensive maintenance to comply with these regulations. Resultant price increases for Risemian manufactured goods will lead to the loss of some export markets. Clearly, therefore, annual exports of Risemian manufactured goods will in the future occur at diminished levels.
Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument in the editorial?
The need to comply with the new regulations will stimulate the development within Risemia of new pollution control equipment for which a strong worldwide demand is likely to emerge.
The proposed regulations include a schedule of fines for noncompliance that escalate steeply in cases of repeated noncompliance.
Savings from utilizing the chemicals captured by the pollution control equipment will remain far below the cost of maintaining the equipment.
By international standards, the levels of pollutants currently emitted by some of Risemia's manufacturing plants are not considered excessive.
The stockholders of most of Risemia's manufacturing corporations exert substantial pressure on the corporations to comply with environmental laws.
因果
商品价格提高→出口市场份额减少
削弱这个复杂逻辑链条（CQ1）或引入干扰因素（CQ2)
A、排污机器的全球需求emerge（出口的也就多啦），另辟蹊径扩大出口市场需求，引入干扰因素，CORRECT
B、不守规矩就罚款（变相增加成本），变相增强
C、化学排污节约的费用远低于存留排污机器的，其实无关，勉强变相增强
C、按国际标准，现在企业的排污量没有超标，与R国自己的削减政策无关
E、股东为遵守规矩的企业施压，无关
