Supply shortages and signs of growing demand are driving cocoa prices upward. Unusually severe weather in cocoa-producing regions—too much rain in Brazil and too little in West Africa—has limited production. Further, Europe and North America recently reported stronger demand for cocoa. In the first quarter, grinding of cocoa beans—the first stage in processing cocoa for chocolate—rose 8.1 percent in Europe and 16 percent in North America. Analysts have concluded that cocoa's price will continue to rise at least into the near future.

Which of the following would, if true, most strengthen the reasoning above?

Ground cocoa beans can be stored for long periods before they spoil. Several European and North American manufacturers that use cocoa have recently improved their processing capacity. It takes new cocoa trees five or six years before they start bearing fruit. Governments in Europe and North America are likely to change current restrictions on cocoa imports. Historically, cocoa production has varied widely from year to year.

题干翻译
巴西降雨过多，西非降雨过少限制了可可产量。此外，欧洲和北美最近对可可的需求增强。在第一季度，可可豆研磨（巧克力加工的第一步）在欧洲增长了8.1%，在北美增长了16%。分析人士得出结论，可可价格至少在近期内将继续上涨。 逻辑链
产量受限+需求增强→价格上涨 问题类型
增强题 推理过程
要增强“可可价格至少在近期内将继续上涨”这一结论，需要找到能进一步说明供给紧张或需求持续旺盛的因素。 选项分析
A选项：磨碎的可可豆在变质前可以长期储存。这与可可价格近期是否会上涨没有直接关系，储存时间长不影响当前供需对价格的影响，无法增强，排除。 B选项：几家使用可可的欧洲和北美制造商最近提高了加工能力。加工能力提高不一定意味着需求会持续增加，也没有涉及到供给方面的变化，无法增强，排除。 C选项：新的可可树需要五到六年才能开始结果。说明短期内可可树不会大量增加产量，供给依然受限，在需求增强的情况下，更能支撑价格上涨的结论，增强作用明显，当选。 D选项：欧洲和北美的政府可能会改变当前对可可进口的限制。但不确定限制是放松还是收紧，也就无法确定对可可价格的影响，无法增强，排除。 E选项：从历史上看，可可产量每年变化很大。只是陈述了历史情况，不能说明当前和近期可可价格的走势，无法增强，排除。
