Clarification of B

Is B incorrect because it is more of what the stim is trying to establish rather than an assumption required for the assumption to make sense?

Hi @cheynnelee,

Thanks for the question! (B) is wrong because nothing makes us think that churches and aristocracies have to be the only sources for private support. There could be other private support for the arts. So (B) assumes “private support” and churches/aristocracies are synonymous, which they don’t have to be.

Hope this helps! Feel free to ask any other questions that you might have.
