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?

In many areas of Britain, there were fewer steampowered factories than wind- or water-powered factories in the earliest period of industrialization. Unlike wind- or water-powered factories, steampowered factories were fueled with coal, which sometimes had to be transported significantdistances from the mine to the site of the factory. It was both difficult and expensive to convert a factory from wind power or water power to steam power. In the early period of industrialization, many goods sold in towns and cities could not be mass-produced in factories. 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.

题干翻译
蒸汽动力工厂比风车或水车（工厂的其他可行动力来源）成本劣势显著。然而，尽管有此劣势，在技术改进降低其成本之前，就大量建造了蒸汽动力工厂。此外，即使在地理条件允许建造靠近主要市场的风力和水力工厂的地区，也建造了蒸汽动力工厂。 逻辑链
蒸汽厂成本高，仍大量建 问题类型
解释题 推理过程
需要找到一个原因，来解释为什么在成本劣势明显且有其他可行动力选择的情况下，蒸汽动力工厂还大量建造。 选项分析
A选项：在英国许多地区，工业化早期蒸汽动力工厂比风力或水力动力工厂少。这只是在比较数量，没有解释为什么蒸汽动力工厂会大量建造，无法解释，排除。 B选项：蒸汽动力工厂用煤作燃料，有时需从矿场远距离运输。这只是说明了蒸汽动力工厂燃料运输的情况，没有解释为何大量建造，排除。 C选项：将工厂从风力或水力转换为蒸汽动力既困难又昂贵。这与蒸汽动力工厂大量建造的原因无关，排除。 D选项：在工业化早期，城镇和城市销售的许多商品不能在工厂大规模生产。这与蒸汽动力工厂大量建造没有直接关联，排除。 E选项：在英国，能够建造风力或水力动力工厂的地点数量不足以满足当时对工厂生产商品的所有需求。说明因为风力和水力工厂的建造地点有限，无法满足需求，所以即使蒸汽动力工厂成本高，也得大量建造来满足生产需求，能够解释，当选。
