Although aspirin has been proven to eliminate moderate fever associated with some illnesses, many doctors no longer routinely recommend its use for this purpose. A moderate fever stimulates the activity of the body's disease-fighting white blood cells and also inhibits the growth of many strains of disease-causing bacteria.
If the statements above are true, which of the following conclusions is most strongly supported by them?

A Aspirin, an effective painkiller, alleviates the pain and discomfort of many illnesses.
B Aspirin can prolong a patient's illness by eliminating moderate fever helpful in fighting some diseases.
C Aspirin inhibits the growth of white blood cells, which are necessary for fighting some illnesses.
D The more white blood cells a patient's body produces, the less severe the patient's illness will be.
E The focus of modern medicine is on inhibiting the growth of disease-causing bacteria within the body.

答案B

我怎么觉得prolong是无关啊，文中没有提到啊

这是道不联系的题目,我乍一看太简单拉想都没想就选C．．．

B是：aspirin可以根除 moderate fever　associated with some illnesses,但并不可以根除所有的illnesses，因为它把可以fight diseases的 moderate fever 根除了，所以就是拖延落...
