At present the Hollywood Restaurant has only standard-height tables. However, many customers come to watch the celebrities who frequent the Hollywood, and they would prefer tall tables with stools because such seating would afford a better view of the celebrities. Moreover, diners seated on stools typically do not stay as long as diners seated at standard-height tables. Therefore, if the Hollywood replaced some of its seating with high tables and stools, its profits would increase.
The argument is vulnerable to criticism on the grounds that it gives reason to believe that it is likely that
some celebrities come to the Hollywood to be seen, and so might choose to sit at the tall tables if they were available
the price of meals ordered by celebrities dining at the Hollywood compensates for the longer time, if any, they spend lingering over their meals
a customer of the Hollywood who would choose to sit at a tall table would be an exception to the generalization about lingering
a restaurant's customers who spend less time at their meals typically order less expensive meals than those who remain at their meals longer
with enough tall tables to accommodate all the Hollywood's customers interested in such seating, there would be no view except of other tall tables
hollywood餐厅目前只有标准高度的桌子，然而很多来就餐的客户一般都是冲着明星，他们更喜欢高桌子高椅子因为有更好的view。
另外高桌子客人一般就餐时间比标准桌客人短，因此如果将一些标准桌子换乘高桌子，利润可以翻倍
choice c, 一个选择高桌子的客人不符合关于lingering的一般概括。correct，直接否决了premise，因为高桌客人群体不属于linger shorter，在错误假设之上的推理站不住脚
choice d, 就餐时间短的客人往往点稍微便宜的餐食。-> 虽然高卓客人就餐短，但往往消费便宜。在这些信息基础之上要判断profits和高桌收入的关系还需要额外assumption，不如choice c反驳得直接
choice e, goes much further than this: it talks about the consequences of a plan in which enough tall tables are installed to accommodate everyone who wants a tall table.
