145. Between 1975 and 1985, nursing-home occupancy rates averaged 87 percent of capacity,
while admission rates remained constant, at an average of 95 admissions per 1,000 beds per
year. Between 1985 and 1988, however, occupancy rates rose to an average of 92 percent of
capacity, while admission rates declined to 81 per 1,000 beds per year.

If the statements above are true, which of the following conclusions can be most properly
drawn?
(A) The average length of time nursing-home residents stayed in nursing homes increased
between 1985 and 1988.
(B) The proportion of older people living in nursing homes was greater in 1988 than in
1975.
(C) Nursing home admission rates tend to decline whenever occupancy rates rise.
(D) Nursing homes built prior to 1985 generally had fewer beds than did nursing homes
built between 1985 and 1988.
(E) The more beds a nursing home has, the higher its occupancy rate is likely to be.
C的答案为什么不对?题目中是说DECLINE啊?另外 whenever occupancy rates rise如何翻译?

whenever occupancy rates rise=无论何时占有率上升.我的理解是C的意思是只要占有率上升许可率就下降,而文章里没说这是个必然的联系,可能是以偶然的巧合.
