参考解析

解析:
推断题。第三段最后一部分主要论述的是托运商如果感觉要价过高可以上诉,但是“the process is expensive, time consuming, and will work only in truly extreme cases”,也就是说上诉的整个过程费用昂贵,浪费时间,并且只能在非常极端的案例上才能起到作用。因此可推断,被要价过高的托运商是几乎不可能去进行这一费时费钱却很少起作用的上诉过程,故选C。第三段第二句提到,铁路公司向这些“受制”的托运人收取的费用通常比有竞争对手时高出20%到30%,即没有竞争的铁路公司,托运人会多付费用,因此A与原文相矛盾。B无法从原文推断出。原文提到托运人可以向联邦政府水路运输委员会提出上诉,但并没有说这个委员会保证了铁路行业的公平竞争,排除D。
