111. Springfield Fire Commissioner: The vast majority of false fire alarms are prank calls made anonymously from fire alarm boxes on street corners. Since virtually everyone has access to a private telephone, these alarm boxes have outlived their usefulness.Therefore, we propose to remove the boxes. Removing the boxes will reduce the number of prank calls without hampering people's ability to report a fire.
Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the claim that the proposal, ifcarried out, will have the announced effect?
(A) The fire department traces all alarm calls made from private telephones and records where they came from.
(B) Maintaining the fire alarm boxes costs Springfield approximately $5 million annually.
(C) A telephone call can provide the fire department with more information about the nature and size of a fire than can an alarm placed from an alarm box.
(D) Responding to false alarms significantly reduces the firedepartment's capacity for responding to fires.
(E) On anygivenday,a significant percentage ofthe public telephones in Spring field are out of service.
CD上几个答疑帖都看了但还是没有理解...
答案是A 我选的是C
argument的结论是Removing the boxes will reduce the number of prank calls without hampering people's ability to report a fire.
可是A说的 traces all alarm calls made from private telephones and records,我理解这样通过管理all alarm calls 可以减少prank calls,可是题目的前提也说了,The vast majority of false fire alarms are prank calls made anonymously from fire alarm boxes, 不是from private telephones 的啊,觉得这跟removing the boxes 没有关系啊,为什么能support呢。
C的解释我现在大概可以理解,但是就不明白为什么A可以support。难道我是理解的不对吗...fire alarms box是通过private phones 报警的吗难道0 0
纠结了好久啊求大神帮忙T T |
