The administrators of a high school need to choose between two new science textbooks for their 10th graders. One of the books, Science Now, costs considerably more, and is considered less in-depth, than the other book, Science Stories. Despite this, the administrators have chosen to purchase Science Now.

Which of the following, if true, most helps to explain why the school administrators chose to purchase Science Now rather than Science Stories?

(A) Science Stories has fewer full-page illustrations than does Science Now.
(B) The publishers of Science Now will lower the price of the book if a school has purchased other book titles that they have published.
(C) Science Stories was published several years earlier than Science Now and contains outdated material and inaccuracies.
(D) The publishers of Science Now also publish 11th and 12th grade material that is widely considered the best currently available.
(E) For the past 10 years, the high school used science textbooks that were published by a company whose president is now president of the company that publishes Science Now.
