Last August the XT chain of gasoline stations had a temporary sales promotion in effect. In the promotion, any customer who made a purchase of ten or more gallons of gasoline was entitled to a free car wash. For the month of August, XT experienced a ten percent increase in gasoline sales as compared to sales in August the previous year, so evidently the promotion was successful as a means of boosting sales.
In evaluating the argument, it would be most helpful to answer which of the following?
A.    In the areas in which XT’s gasoline stations operate, how did total combined gasoline sales for all gasoline stations last August compare with sales for the previous August?
B.    Was the money that XT earned from the increase in gasoline sales enough to offset the cost of providing free car washes during the promotion?
C.    Were there any customers who bought ten or more gallons at an XT gasoline station during the promotion who would have or more gallons at an XT gasoline in lower quantities, but more frequently, if the promotion had not been in effect?
D.    Did XT or any of its gasoline stations have to pay other businesses to provide the car washes that customers were offered in the promotion?
E.    Are XT’s gasoline sales in August usually significantly higher than one twelfth of XT’s annual gasoline sales?

特别是 a 与 c 之间对选, 能不能讲解一下思路啊, 谁

原文说"加满10加仑油免费送洗车服务"这个promotion带来了10%的increse in gasoline sales。最后要评估whether the promotion was successful in boosting sales.
A. 同地区的所有gasoline sales的往年比如何。——yes:大家都销量好,与XT的免费洗车服务无关;no:一枝独秀,则XT的promotion确实起效果了。
B. 销售增长带来的利润是否能cover免费洗车的成本。——说的是profit有关,而与boosting sales无关。
C.说的是如果没有promotion时,现在一次加10gallon油的会不会少量多次加油。——无论回答yes/no,gasoline sales的总量都可能不变,则对原文起不到evaluate作用。
D. 出现other business。——out of scope
E. 8月与当年的月平均比。——out of scope
能在yes/no对原文起strengthen/weaken(vice versa)的只有A了。
