In a recent study, David Cressy examines two central questions concerning English immigration to New England in the 1630's: what kinds of people immigrated and why? Using contemporary literary evidence, ship-ping lists, and customs records, Cressy finds that most adult immigrants were skilled in farming or crafts, were literate, and were organized in families. Each of these characteristics sharply distinguishes the 21,000 people
who left for New England in the 1630's from most of the approximately 377,000 English people who had immigrated to America by 1700.
With respect to their reasons for immigrating, Cressy does not deny the frequently noted fact that some of the immigrants of the 1630's, most notably the organizers and clergy, advanced religious explanations for departure, but he finds that such explanations usually assumed primacy only in retrospect. When he moves beyond the principal actors, he finds that religious explanations were less frequently offered and he concludes that most people immigrated because they were recruited by promises of material improvement.
此为原文，题目是：
The passage indicates that Cressy would agree with which of the following statements about the organizers among the English immigrants to New England in the 1630s?
A Some of them offered a religious explanation for their immigration.
B They did not offer any reasons for their immigration until some time after they had immigrated.
C They were more likely than the average immigrant to be motivated by material considerations.
这是一道多选题。就是C选项我一直纳闷，为什么是错的呢？作者在最后的总结中不是提到了么？
