【OG20-P569-633题】

During the earliest period of industrialization in Britain, steam engines were more expensive to build and operate than either windmills or water mills, the other practicable sources of power for factories. Yet despite their significant cost disadvantage, steam-powered factories were built in large numbers well before technical improvements brought their cost down. Furthermore, they were built even in regions where geographical conditions permitted the construction of wind- and waterpowered factories close to major markets.

Which of the following, if true, most helps to explain the proliferation of steam-powered factories during the earliest period of industrialization in Britain?

(A) In many areas of Britain, there were fewer steampowered factories than wind- or water-powered factories in the earliest period of industrialization.

(B) Unlike wind- or water-powered factories, steampowered factories were fueled with coal, which sometimes had to be transported significant

distances from the mine to the site of the factory.

(D) In the early period of industrialization, many goods sold in towns and cities could not be mass-produced in factories.

(E) In Britain, the number of sites where a wind or water-powered factory could be built was insufficient to provide for all of the demand for factory-produced goods at the time.

答案：

逻辑：蒸

汽工厂比风和水力工厂要贵，且在风和水力工厂的地方也要建造蒸汽工厂。增强，要说蒸汽工厂的优点或者风和水力工厂的缺点。 A无关 B说了蒸汽用煤的不方便，反而是削弱了逻辑，反了。 C，装换贵且麻烦，不利于增强，反而削弱了。 D讨论商品的生产方式，跳出逻辑范围 E，就算是风和水力工厂还是不能满足需求——其缺点
