IMO C.

Songsbird decline-->Magpies population increase.

Option C weakens the argument by stating that population remains same and there are other reasons for decline.

The population of songbirds throughout England has decreased in recent years. Many people explain this decrease as the result of an increase during the same period in the population of magpies, which eat the eggs and chicks of songbirds.

Which one of the following, if true, argues most strongly against the explanation reported in the passage?

(A) Official records of the population of birds in England have been kept for only the past 30 years.
(B) The number of eggs laid yearly by a female songbird varies widely according to the songbird's species.
(C) Although the overall population of magpies has increased, in most areas of England in which the songbird population has decreased the number of magpies has remained stable.
(D) The population of magpies has increased because farmers no longer shoot or trap magpies to any great extent, though farmers still consider magpies to be pests.
(E) Although magpies eat the eggs and chicks of songbirds, magpies' diets consist of a wide variety of other foods as well.


C is going against argument. Zone where songbird population has decreased; number of magpies has remained stable.

IMO C

Cause effect relationship

mag bird population increase - song bird population decrease

C cites the evidence that the "Although the overall population of magpies has increased, in most areas of England in which the songbird population has decreased the number of magpies has remained stable." - this nullifies the cause of the effect.

ohh C is correct because it does explain why the number of the bird decreased while the passage stated that the number od the bird is increasing, understood?
