有同学能帮我分析一下阅读大全（63篇）的第9篇的第8题吗？

这一篇讲的是作者对关于free market的一个观点（nothing seems good or normal that does not accord with the requirements of the free market）的反驳。关于第8题所说的large firms的behavior，我在文中找到的是：这些大公司既不会让自己的产品售价高于有着相同客户群的竞争对手的产品售价，也不会低于竞争对手的售价。然后问作者最同意哪个选项。我觉得，既然不高于也不低于对手的售价，那么为了提高利润的话，就应该尽量降低成本，我选了C。可是答案是A，有同学知道为什么选A吗？
8.  With which of the following statements regarding the behavior of
large firms in industrialized societies would the author be most

predictable level of profit than in achieving a large profit.
(C) The directors of large firms will strive to reduce the costs of their
products.
(D) Many directors of large firms believe that the government should
establish the prices that will be charged for products.
