Question # 8

I chose Answer Choice "C" for this one, which is correct. However, can someone please comment on my analysis why Answer Choices "A", "B", "D", and "E" are out? Choice A: Is a question that I believe Passage A would answer. Choice B: Is a question that I believe Passage B would answer. Choice D: Is a question that I believe Passage B would answer. Choice E: Is a question that I believe Passage A would answer. Am I correct to believe this? Is my logic correct?

Hi Joseph,

I think you are broadly right, but keep in mind that once you show that one of the two passages does not answer that question (for this kind of question that's asking which both answer) you don't necessarily need to consider if the other one does or does not. Still, your thorough work is certainly not a bad thing.
