Question 1 of 5

The government railroad plans to replace its old cross-country trains, which have a maximum speed of 80 miles per hour, with new trains that have a maximum speed of 125 miles per hour. But the tracks on which the trains will run cannot handle trains at speeds higher than 80 miles per hour. Therefore the new trains will not be able to make the cross-country trip in less time than the old trains.

Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument?

A. Because they have a reputation for excellent service, the older trains are preferred by many train travelers.

B. The cross-country train route includes hills that prevent any train from traveling at its maximum speed.

C. The new trains are designed to require regularly scheduled maintenance between trips less frequently than the old trains.

D. Most people who want to travel across the country in less time than it currently takes by train will travel by airplane.

E. The railroad's new schedules call for longer stops at each station on the cross-country route.
