Press Secretary: Our critics claim that the president's recent highway project cancellations demonstrate a vindictive desire to punish legislative districts controlled by opposition parties. They offer as evidence the fact that 90 percent of the projects canceled were in such districts. But all of the canceled projects had been identified as wasteful in a report written by respected nonpartisan auditors. So the president's choice was clearly motivated by sound budgetary policy, not partisan politics.
Which of the following is an assumption on which the press secretary's argument depends?
Canceling highway projects was not the only way for the president to punish legislative districts controlled by opposition parties.
The scheduled highway projects identified as wasteful in the report were not mostly projects in districts controlled by the president's party.
The number of projects canceled was a significant proportion of all the highway projects that were to be undertaken by the government in the near future.
The highway projects canceled in districts controlled by the president's party were not generally more expensive than the projects canceled in districts controlled by opposition parties.
Reports by nonpartisan auditors are not generally regarded by the opposition parties as a source of objective assessments of government projects.
A肯定错，因为它说明president是punishing的，不support conclusion
B 讲的是大部分被定为烂尾工程是不属于于执政党的，所以政府才会被误会。这里是一个漏洞，没有写这句在context，所以这个strategy是fill the hole
隐藏文章已知（trap)
C 跟conclusion 无关
D 无关比较，两个党的价格相同，跟取不取消无关
E report没有被敌对党认为是取消project的原因
