The proposal to hire ten new police officers in Middletown

is quite foolish. There is sufficient funding to pay the salaries of the new officers, but not the salaries of additional court and prison employees to process the increased caseload of arrests and convictions that new officers usually generate.

Which of the following, if true, will most seriously weaken the conclusion drawn above?

A. Studies had shown that an increase in city’s police force does not necessarily reduce crime

B. When one major city increased its police force by 19% last year, there were 40% more arrests and 13% more convictions

C. If funding for the new police officers’ salaries is approved, support for other city services will have to be reduced during the next fiscal year

D. In most US cities, not all arrests result in convictions, and not all convictions result in prison terms

E. Middletown's ratio of police officers to citizens has reached a level at which an increase in the number of officers will have a deterrent effect on crime

答案：

引用cd上lawy

er的，觉得说的很好：原文说增加警察会增加caseload of arrests and convictions that new officers usually generate。所以才得出结论增加警察是FOOLISH。E说的是增加警察下住了罪犯，使CASES没增加。所以WEAKEN结论。D说的是美国的大体情况。原文在讲M的情况。没准M就是少数。所以无关。再说，即使D是说M的情况，也不对，原文是说增加ARRESTS就已经增加工作量了。而D只说 not all arrests result in convictions，没有说增加警察不一定增加ARRESTS。
