input: Text: DANGEROUS QUARRY BY JIM HARMON One little village couldn't have a monopoly on all the bad breaks in the world. They did, though! They say automation makes jobs, especially if "they" are trying to keep their own job of selling automation machines. I know the Actuarvac made one purple passion of a job for me, the unpleasantly fatal results of which are still lingering with me. Thad McCain, my boss at Manhattan-Universal Insurance, beamed over the sprawling automatic brain's silver gauges and plastic toggles as proudly as if he had just personally gave birth to it. "This will simplify your job to the point of a pleasant diversion, Madison." "Are you going to keep paying me for staying with my little hobby?" I asked, suspiciously eyeing my chrome competitor. "The Actuarvac poses no threat to your career. It will merely keep you from flying off on wild-goose chases. It will unvaryingly separate from the vast body of legitimate claims the phony ones they try to spike us for. Then all that remains is for you to gather the accessory details, the evidence to jail our erring customers." "Fine," I said. I didn't bother to inform him that that was all my job had ever been. McCain shuffled his cards. They were cards for the machine, listing new individual claims on company policies. Since the two-month-old machine was literate and could read typewriting, the cards weren't coded or punched
  Question: How would Madison's perception of Granite City been different if he had not have met Professor Parnell?
  
   (A) His perception of Granite City would have been misconstrued because he would have lacked an explanation to why the people of Granite City are the way that they are.
   (B) His perception would have been unchanged because he would have figured out that Granite City was making false insurance claims on his own.
   (C) His perception of Granite City would have been much more positive without Professor Parnell's explanation of the city's grim secret. 
   (D) His perception of Granite City would have stayed the same; however, he would have figured out the situation in Granite City much more quickly without Professor Parnell..
  Answer:
output: His perception of Granite City would have been misconstrued because he would have lacked an explanation to why the people of Granite City are the way that they are.
