As a construction material, bamboo is as strong as steel and sturdier than concrete. Moreover, in tropical areas bamboo is a much less expensive construction material than either steel or concrete and is always readily available. In tropical areas, therefore, building with bamboo makes better economic sense than building with steel or concrete, except where land values are high.

Which of the following, if true, most helps to explain the exception noted above?
选的E 因为题中说bamboo 更便宜 并且always available E中说bamboo被clear了 那么就不available了 所以选E (p.s B项 high land value与multistory building 我认为是主观联想有关 )

The city of Workney, in raising bus fares from $1.00 to $1.25, proposed that 18 fare tokens be sold for $20.00 to alleviate the extra burden of the fare increase on the city's low-income residents.  Critics suggested alternatively that 9 fare tokens be sold for $10.00, because a $20.00 outlay would be prohibitive for low-income riders.
 
The alternative proposal depends on which of the following assumptions?
我选的B。我觉得以上结论是基于他们认为low income的人会更需要这笔savings,所以会买10刀的而不是20刀的我。请问这样理解错在哪里?
