Which of the following, if true, most logically completes the passage?
A recent poll found that over 80 percent of the residents of Nalmed Province favored a massive expansion of the commuter rail system as a means of significantly easing congestion on the province’s highways and were willing to help pay for the expansion through an increase in their taxes. Nevertheless, the poll results indicate that expansion of the rail system, if successfully completed, would be unlikely to achieve its goal of easing congestion, because .
A. most of people in favor of expanding the rail system reported less congestion during their highway commute as the primary benefit they would experience.
B. of the less than 20 percent of residents not counted as favoring the expansion, about half claimed to have no opinion one way or the other.
C. the twice-daily periods of peak congestion caused by people commuting in cars have grown from about an hour each to almost two and a half hours each in the past 20 years.
D. expanding the commuter rail system will require the construction of dozens of miles of new railroads.
E. the proposed expansion to the commuter rail system will make it possible for some people who both live and work at suburban locations to commute by rail. 我开始选了E，但后来明白了E不对，因为E只是说了这个扩张计划潜在的不成功的因素，看似符合，但关键在题目里有一句“the poll results indicate that ”，说明从调查结果就可以看出来，那答案应该是和人们favor这个计划的动机阿之类的，答案肯定和people有关，这个角度看选A，但A具体说了什么意思呢？怎么解释不通呢？恳请高人解答

我觉得E的问题就在于“some people”
我用排除法排除B（less than 20 percent），排除C（in cars），排除D（和ease congestion的计划成功与否无关），排除E（some poeple,和B一样，用小样本无法解释整个计划）
啊，原来我把rail和highway看成一个东西了，看了这么多遍都没看出来
