Technological improvements and reduced equipment costs have made converting solar energy directly into electricity far more cost-efficient in the last decade. However, the threshold of economic viability for solar power (that is, the price per barrel to which oil would have to rise in order for new solar power plants to be more economical than new oil-fired power plants) is unchanged at thirty-five dollars.

Which of the following, if true, does most to help explain why the increased cost-efficiency of solar power has not decreased its threshold of economic viability?

正确答案: C

A.The cost of oil has fallen dramatically.
B.The reduction in the cost of solar-power equipment has occurred despiteincreased raw material costs for that equipment.
C.Technological changes have increased the efficiency of oil-fired power plants.
D.Most electricity is generated by coal-fired or nuclear, rather than oil-fired,power plants.
E.When the price of oil increases, reserves of oil not previously worthexploiting become economically viable.

小张同志:

B选项没有说出Solar power plant 的economical viability 保持不变的原因。你可以换个角度想:从oil power plant的方面考虑一下。 括号里面(。。。l to which oil would have to risein。。)会有一些暗示。

我的第一反应是A。。。C的确是一个正确的选择,但是有什么办法能排除A呢?

我觉得A跟threshold没什么联系,即使cost降了,跟发电效率什么的也联系不上啊
