同样的题，但是GWD的答案和GMAC给出的不一样。不过我觉得两个都有道理，只是......听听大家的意见。

GWD给出的答案是C，GMAC给出的是A。

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, if carried 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 five million dollars 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 fire department’s capacity for responding to fires.
E.   On any given day, a significant percentage of the public telephones in Springfield are out of service.

原题说：大部分错误火灾警报是由“匿名者”利用街角火灾警报器搞的，鉴于大家都有电话，因此火灾警报器已经过时了，所以得搞掉它们。
行动的目的很清晰：减少错误警报
理由很简单，很单纯：火灾警报器没用
C选项的确是加强项，它强调了理由的正确性，可行性。
但是答非所问，因为题目问的是哪个理由支持实施后的效果，效果（目的）很明显就是降低恶作剧，A选项直接让这种恶作剧变成不可能，因为报警不再“匿名”--谁玩抓谁
