T-3-Q13.
The traditional treatment of strep infections has been a seven-day course of antibiotics, either penicillin or erythromycin. However, since many patients stop taking those drugs within three days, reinfection is common in cases where these drugs are prescribed. A new antibiotic requires only a three-day course of treatment. Therefore, reinfection will probably be less common in cases where the new antibiotic is prescribed than in cases where either penicillin or erythromycin is prescribed.

Which of the following, if true, most strengthens the argument?

A.      Some of people who are allergic to penicillin are likely to be allergic to the new antibiotic.
B.       A course of treatment with the new antibiotic costs about the same as a course of treatment with either penicillin or erythromycin.
C.      The new antibiotic has been shown to be effective in eradicating bacterial infections other than strep.
D.      Some physicians have already begun to prescribe the new antibiotic instead of penicillin or erythromycin for the treatment of some strep infections
E.       Regardless of whether they take a traditional antibiotic or the new one, most patients feel fully recovered after taking the drug for three days.

Why is E?
How the patients feel should be not related.

题目要加强新antibiotics三天的功效，E正是说明了新药的功效了，三天就好了~~~为什么要说patients，因为论证时引用了 many patients stop taking those drugs within three days这个例证。

但是E中说regardless of whether they take a traditional ...or new...，也就是说，无论新药，老药大部分病人都是三天康复，这个与题中要强调新药的三天功效相矛盾。
