Which of the following is an assumption on which the argument depends?
Conclusion: G城的保险公司在碰撞损失险比F城的保险公司取得更大的利润 Premise: G城的关于碰撞损失的汽车保险费用比F城的多,但是针对相同的车和司机,G城居民的车比F城居民的车更少发生碰撞事件
Solution:

B. 无关信息,G城开车的人不比F城开车的人多对结论没有影响
C. 削弱结论,发生车辆碰撞时,G城的人比F城的人更愿意找保险公司,削弱了结论
D. 无关信息,F城和G城是碰撞损失险费率最高的城市对结论没有影响
E. 无关信息,保险公司已经知道发生碰撞可能性的区别对结论没有影响
