Airport official: Local residents have been complaining that night flights into Plainsville airport disturb their sleep and should be sharply reduced in number. This complaint is completely unreasonable—there have been night flights coming into the airport from the very beginning, twenty years ago, and these residents should have taken that fact into account when buying their homes.
Which of the following is an assumption on which the airport argument depends?
There are fewer night flights now than there were originally.
The residents who are complaining have been in their current homes fewer than twenty years.
The residents who are complaining are ignoring the benefits they gain from the presence of the airport.
The economic success of the airport depends entirely on the existence of the night flights.
People buying houses in Plainville all avoid buying houses near the airport if they can.
错选A，发现其实airport的debate，应该针对的是resident，跟多少night flights无关、
答案B: 句意理解错误，以为是complaint的人少于20年前，其实完全是居民在20年以前就住那的，完全有权利complaint；小于20年的就应该接受机场有夜机的事情
