This was a tough passage, and for this question, I was stuck between B and D. Could someone explain why D is the right answer is B is the wrong one?

Some educators: cover basic subjects in depth so that students can explore on their own later.

Argument against this is made by saying that without understanding SIGNIFICANCE of a subject (ie, only study the basics) then self-study will be difficult.

Correct answer choice is D? Can you please help me make this connection?

Also, I was confused by this question because I wasn't sure if the "educators" referred to in the question means the initial ...

This bread game went very slowly for me! Can someone please post their diagram? Thanks.

(page 94 in LR strategy guide question on good health and educational levels - December 2002, S4, Q20). I chose A though when I looked back I could see that answer choice ...

I chose answer C based on POE of the other answer choices. However, I could not find support for it in the passage. The only mention of profit is when it comes to retained rights, and the choice supports a statement about transferring rights.

The conclusion of this rather tricky argument is stated first: in terms of politics, people's actions often do not match their words. The proof is an involved example which itself concludes -- in the last sentence -- that voters reelect politicians whose behavior the voters don't like. The important thing to realize is that everything beyond the first sentence is an elaborate example of people not doing what they say. It leads ...
