7. People tend to estimate the likelihood of an event’s occurrence according to its salience; that is, according to how strongly and how often it comes to their attention.

By placement and headlines, newspapers emphasize stories about local crime over stories about crime elsewhere and about many other major events.

It can be concluded on the basis of the statements above that, if they are true, which of the following is most probably also true?

(A) The language used in newspaper headlines about local crime is inflammatory and fails to respect the rights of suspects.

(B) The coverage of international events in newspapers is neglected in favor of the coverage of local events.

(C) Readers of local news in newspapers tend to overestimate the amount of crime in their own localities relative to the amount of crime in other places.

(D) None of the events concerning other people that are reported in newspapers is so salient in people’s minds as their own personal experiences.

(E) The press is the news medium that focuses people’s attention most strongly on local crimes.

答案是C,我想问的是为什么E不对呢?我觉得E也很有道理阿?!

我是这么想的:

原题中…By placement and headlines, newspapers emphasize stories about local crime

这不就是E的答案了吗?!

题目说人们倾向于根据一件事引起他们注意的强度和频率来估计这件事发生的可能性。所以当新闻将更多的注意力放在当地的犯罪上而较少报道别的地方的犯罪及其他主要事件的时候,人们就会认为当地的犯罪比其他地方要多了,这正是C所说的内容。
