请教：大全c-15，汇总贴里面没有讨论过

barrios

15.   Bill: Smoke-detecting fire alarms can save lives. I believe that every apartment in this city should be required by law to be equipped with a smoke detector.

Joe: I disagree with your proposal. Smoke detectors are just as important for safety in private houses as they are in apartment.

From this exchange, it can be inferred that Joe has interpreted Bill’s statement to mean that

(A) the city should be responsible for providing smoke detectors for apartments

(B) residences outside the city should not be equipped with smoke detectors

(C) only apartments should be equipped with smoke detectors

(D) the risk of fire is not as great in private houses as it is in apartments（C）

(E) the rate of death by fire is unusually high in the city in question

不太明白为啥是C，请大家指点下，谢谢

另外，感觉大全里的题干都比较长啊，而且比较绕。需要严格按照30分钟做完一个section20题的这种速度来练习么？

Joe提出的观点是：in private 和in apartment是在importance方面是平等的

选项找一个不平等的：C

D是risk，不相关

谢谢hansomecd

我把题目的意思理解错了，就是把Joe has interpreted Bill’s statement to mean that这句话理解成what Joe mean, 实际上问的是what Bill mean.
