[spoiler]hi guys, can you explain me why the correct answer is C
if we have to weaken the consortium view, it means we have to weaken the view that few people play chess because they cant find suitable co player.
if we choose C, does it not mean that we support that opinion? i dont understand, C says the number of young tennis players has risen steadily because they can find suitable opponent....
dunno why i am not as good at CR as i was before... i read a CR and i understand it but i always choose wrong answer and the situation happened the same when i resolve old CRs which i have read and done before.... hmhm how sad! [/spoiler]
