The economic downturn has run its course and all the indications of a recovery appear to be present, although some analysts remain skeptical. The paper’s recently published predictions for employment trends between 2000 and 2010 clearly suggest that the greatest increase in the number of people employed will be in the low-paying catering sector. However, surprisingly, the low-paying catering sector will not increase its percentage share of overall employment, but the catering sector involving high-paying catering positions will do so, proving skeptical analysts wrong.
If the predictions listed above are accurate, which of the following best reconciles the surprising situation described above?
(A) The overall number of people employed in the catering sector will decrease.
(B) There will be more high-paid catering workers than low-paid catering workers.
(C) The number of people employed in others sectors, excluding low paid workers, will increase.
(D) The number of low-paid catering workers will approximately equal those in other higher-paid sectors.
(E) The overall number of people employed in the catering sector will increase

Hmm, this question doesn't really have a discrepancy. There's nothing seemingly contradictory about jobs going up without percentage share going up. That just tells us directly that the overall number of workers will increase, so this could be rewritten as an inference question. However, the overall increase could come from any other area, including high-paying catering. Therefore, either C or E could turn out to be true, but neither is inferable.
