67.
Several industries have recently switched at least
partly from older technologies powered by fossil fuels
to new technologies powered by electricity. It is thus
evident that less fossil fuel is being used as a result of
the operations of these industries than would have
been used if these industries had retained their older
technologies.
Which of the following, if true, most strengthens the
argument above?
(A)
Many of the industries that have switched at
least partly to the new technologies have
increased their output.
(B) Less fossil fuel was used to manufacture the
machinery employed in the new technologies
than was originally used to manufacture the
machinery employed in the older technologies.
(C)
More electricity is used by those industries that
have switched at least partly to the new
technologies than by those industries that have
not switched.
(D)
Some of the industries that have switched at
least partly to the new technologies still use
primarily technologies that are powered by
fossil fuels.
(E)
The amount of fossil fuel used to generate
the electricity needed to power the new
technologies is less than the amount that would
have been used to power the older technologies.
