The number of applications
for teaching positions in Newtown’s public schools was 5.7 percent lower in
1993 than in 1985 and 5.9 percent lower in 1994 than in 1985. despite a
steadily growing student population and an increasing number of teacher
resignations, however, Newtown does not face a shortage in the late 1990’s.
Which of the following, if
true, would contribute most to an explanation of the apparent discrepancy
above?
A.
Many
of Newtown’s public school students do not graduate from high school
B.
New
housing developments planned for Newtown are (shared) for occupancy in 1987 and
are expected to increase the number of elementary school students in Newtown’s
public
C. The Newtown school board does not contemplate increasing the ratio of
students to teachers in the 1990’s.
D.
Teachers’
colleges in and near Newtown produced lower graduates in 1994 than in 1993
E. In 1993 Newtown’s public schools received 40 percent more applications
for teaching positions than there were positions available.
answer is "C". Why not "E"?

非常勉强地把你的题目看清楚了，
E显然是不对的，有很多的人来申请当老师，并不代表实际的老师人数上升了。
而C说的是直接说没有提高学生比老师的比例，也就是说每一个学生仍然可以有足量的老师指导，保持了原有的比例，自然也就是不缺老师了。
