If the public library shared by the adjacent towns of Redville andGlenwood were relocated from the library’s current, overcrowdedbuilding in central Redville to a larger, available building in centralGlenwood, the library would then be within walking distance of a largernumber of library users.

Yet therecannot be a noble class, properly speaking, unless both the titles thatindicate superior, noble status and the inheritance of such titles aresanctioned by law. Although feudalism existed in Europe as early as theeighth century, it was not until the twelfth century, when many feudalinstitutions were in decline, that the hereditary transfer of legallyrecognized titles of nobility first appeared.
The statements above, if true, most strongly support which one of the following claims？
（A） To say that feudalism by definition requires the existence of a nobility is to employ a definition that distorts history.
（B） Prior to the twelfth century, the institution of European feudalism functioned without the presence of a dominant class.
（C） The fact that a societal group has a distinct legal status isnot in itself sufficient to allow that group to be properly considereda social class.
（D） The decline of feudalism in Europe was the only cause of the rise of a European nobility.
（E） The prior existence of feudal institutions is a prerequisitefor the emergence of a nobility, as defined in the strictest sense ofthe term.

Despite improvements in treatment for asthma, the death rate formthis disease has doubled during the past decade from its previous rate.Two possible explanations for this increase have been offered. First,the recording of deaths due to asthma has become more widespread andaccurate in the past decade than it had been previously. Second, therehas been an increase in urban pollution. However, since the rate ofdeaths due to asthma has increased dramatically even in cities withlong-standing, comprehensive medical records and with little or nourban pollution, one must instead conclude that the cause of increaseddeaths is the use of bronchial inhalers by asthma sufferers to relievetheir symptoms.
