求大神解答!!! Newspaper editorial:

In an attempt to reduce the crime rate, the governor is getting tough on criminals and making prison conditions harsher. Part of this effort has been to deny inmates the access they formerly had to college-level courses. However, this action is clearly counter to the governor’s ultimate goal, since after being released from prison, inmates who had taken such courses committed far fewer crimes overall than other inmates.

Which of the following is an assumption on which the argument depends?

A. Not being able to take college-level courses while in prison is unlikely to deter anyone from a crime that he or she might otherwise have committed.
B. Former inmates are no more likely to commit crimes than are members of the general population.
C. The group of inmates who chose to take college-level courses were not already less likely than other inmates to commit crimes after being released.
D. Taking high school level courses in prison has less effect on an inmate’s subsequent behavior than taking college-level courses does.
E. The governor’s ultimate goal actually is to gain popularity by convincing people that something effective is being done about crime.
为什么是C，万分感谢！！！

相关因果找假设

前提（果）：after being released from prison, inmates who had taken such courses committed far fewer crimes overall than other inmates
结论（因）：to offer inmates the access to college-level courses in prison

Defender类Assumption: 无“他因”，无因果倒置，样本有效，方案可行。。。

C就是这么一个Defender类Assumption：样本没有特殊性。那些会在监狱里进修的不是那些本来就出了狱也不会再犯的人。
