Each of the following is an assumption made in the argument above EXCEPT:

(A) In most major cities, air-pollution problems are caused almost entirely by local industry.
(B) Air-pollution regulations on industry have a significant impact on the quality of the air.
(C) The air-pollution problems of other major cities are basically similar to those once suffered by London.
(D) An increase in the number of bird species in and around a city is desirable.
(E) The increased sightings of bird species in and around London reflect an actual increase in the number of species in the area.

OA after some time

YES they can - look in A we have quantifier, modifier problem + logical fallacy tied to "most" = more than 50% (remember Adam's note? )

I really don't understand people who lead us lost in the darkness by pointing to ignore certain rules for CR

IMO A,

A uses strong words : almost entirely!! It does tell you that regulations does help the cause but nowhere does it say an industry should be "almost entirely" responsible. It can be responsible not entirely from the passage.
C,D,E are all easily assumed from the passage.
B is an excellent wrong answer if not for A

I hope I helped.
