Q33:

Which of the following, if true, most logically completes the passage?

A recent poll found that over 80 percent of the residents of Nalmed Province favored a

massive expansion of the commuter rail system as a means of significantly easing

congestion on the province’s highways and were willing to help pay for the expansion

through an increase in their taxes. Nevertheless, the poll results indicate that expansion

of the rail system, if successfully completed, would be unlikely to achieve its goal of

easing congestion, because _______.

A. most people in favor of expanding the rail system reported less congestion during

their highway commute as the primary benefit they would experience

B. of the less than 20 percent of residents not counted as favoring the expansion,

about half claimed to have no opinion one way or the other

C. the twice-daily periods of peak congestion caused by people commuting in cars

have grown from about an hour each to almost two and a half hours each in the

past 20 years

D. expanding the commuter rail system will require the construction of dozens of

miles of new railbed

E. the proposed expansion to the commuter rail system will make it possible for

some people who both live and work at suburban locations to commute by rail

答案是A? A 是什么意思啊? D为什么不对呢。。

请NN指教! 多谢!

I think (A) means most people will use highway to commute after construction.

(D) is a technical problem by which we can't justify the argument.

A说,赞成轨道交通系统扩充的大部分人报告说她们(从这个扩充计划中)的主要收益是公路上(可以因此而)减少的拥挤。换句话说,大部分人都倾向于使用公路交通。这样这个铁路扩充计划对于减少公路上的拥挤就没有多少用了。
