Critics of certain pollution-control regulations have claimed that the money spent over the last decade in order to reduce emissions of carbon monoxide and of volatile organic compounds has been wasted.  The evidence they offer in support of this claim might appear compelling:  despite the money spent, annual emissions of these pollutants have been increasing steadily.  This evidence is far from adequate, however, since over the last decade a substantial number of new industrial facilities that emit these pollutants have been built.
 
In the reasoning given, the two portions in boldface play which of the following roles?
A为什么不对?第一句都说了"have claimed that",它不就是个claim嘛, 为什么正确答案选得是position?
