问题 Some communities in Florida are populated almost exclusively by retired people and contain few, if any, families with small children. Yet these communities are home to thriving businesses specializing in the rental of furniture for infants and small children. Which of the following, if true, best reconciles the seeming discrepancy described above?

选项 A、The businesses specializing in the rental of children’ s furniture buy their furniture from distributors outside of Florida.
B、The few children who do reside in these communities all know each other and often make overnight visits to one another’s houses.
C、Many residents of these communities who move frequently prefer renting their furniture to buying it outright .
D、Many residents of these communities must provide for the needs of visiting grandchildren several weeks a year.
E、Children’s furniture available for rental is of the same quality as that available for sale in the stores.

答案D

解析 如果这些社区许多居民一年中有几个星期要接待来访的他们的孙子或孙女,如(D)所述,仅凭此就能产生对出租的小孩用的家具的足够需求来支持这些企业繁荣兴旺,因此,(D)有助于调和这个明显的矛盾,是正确答案;选项(B)中提到的少数家庭不可能产生使出租企业繁荣兴旺的足够的需求;相似地,选项(A)和(E),尽管它们提供了关于在这些社区出租的家具的信息,但没有解释为什么有这种对小孩家具的需求这一首要问题;选项(C)有助于解释为什么这些社区对出租家具的需求非同寻常地高,但没有解释为什么这种需求是对孩子用的家具的需求。
