单选题 Soft Drink Manufacturer: Our new children's soft drink, RipeCal, is fortified with calcium. Since calcium is essential for developing healthy bones, drinking RipeCal regularly will help make children healthy.
Consumer Advocate: But RipeCal also contains large amounts of sugar, and regularly consuming large amounts of sugar is unhealthful, especially for children.
In responding to the soft drink manufacturer, the consumer advocate does which of the following?

A、 Challenges the manufacturer's claim about the nutritional value of calcium in children's diets.
B、 Argues that the evidence cited by the manufacturer, when properly considered, leads to a conclusion opposite to that reached by the manufacturer.
C、 Implies that the manufacturer of a product is typically unconcerned with the nutritional value of that product.
D、 Questions whether a substance that is healthful when eaten in moderation can be unhealthful when eaten in excessive amounts.
E、 (E) Presents additional facts that call into question the conclusion drawn by the manufacturer.

【正确答案】 E

【答案解析】[解析] 根据本题的论述，我们很容易看出消费者代表在反对软饮料商的论述中，并非提及软饮料制造商所提出的他们的饮料因增加了钙的含量而更有益于孩子们健康的声明，而是指出了软饮料制造商的产品的一个内在缺点来表明他们的产品能给孩子们的健康造成一定的危害，也就是说消费者代表通过找出其他原因的方法削弱了软饮料制造商的饮料有益于孩子们健康的声明。由以上分析可知，(E)为正确答案，而(A)、(B)、(C)和(D)都是明显错误的选项。
