I do not understand why answer choice A is an incorrect answer choice. According to the passage, more incidents of injuries occurred on the ski slopes in 1950 than occurred in 1980. The question stem then asks which answer choice most conflicts with the passage. Answer choice A basically states the opposite of what is claimed in the passage, yet it is not the correct answer choice... I know I must be misinterpreting something here. I am just not sure what.
I also do see how answer choice B (the correct answer choice) is also viable and correct.
