Shoreland County recently purchased an area of wilderness land in the county to prevent it from being developed. In doing so, the county has forfeited all future property taxes on this land. Property taxes are assessed on market value, and if developed, the land would have contributed significantly to the county’s overall annual tax revenue. Because of the purchase, therefore, overall annual tax revenue will be lower than it would have been if development had occurred.
Which of the following is an assumption on which the argument depends?
选项
A、The money the county would have had to expend for services to residences or industry developed on the wilderness land would have exceeded the tax revenue from the developed land.
B、The market value of undeveloped properties in Shoreland County will not increase significantly in the foreseeable future.
C、The property taxes received by Shoreland County from the previous owners of the wilderness area were insignificant relative to the county’s overall annual tax revenue.
D、Land near the area bought by the county will not increase significantly in market value as a result of being near wilderness that is protected from development.
E、Shoreland County will not in the foreseeable future prevent the development of any other land in the county.
答案
D
解析
选项取反。周围的土地价值会升高→周围土地的资产税会上升→滨岸县的总税收会上升,推翻原文,D正确。A项无关选项。文章讨论的是总体的税收,和滨岸县的服务费用无关。B项无关选项。根据原文,滨岸县放弃了这片土地上的所有资产税,所以无论市场价值怎么变,在这片土地上得到的资产税都是零。C项无关选项。本文讨论的是滨岸县收购这片土地之后的税收情况,和之前的拥有者没关系。E项不阻止开发→市场价值升高→税收上升,这个选项本身就在削弱原文,不选。
