Q10 - Chemical fertilizers not only create potential health

by ohthatpatrick Fri Dec 31, 1999 8:00 pm

Question Type:
ID the Conclusion

Stimulus Breakdown:
Conclusion: The use of chemical fertilizers should be avoided.
Evidence: They destroy earthworms, whose castings make a richer soil and more fertile garden.

Answer Anticipation:
We just need the closest paraphrase we can get to "the use of chemical fertilizers should be avoided."

Correct Answer:
D

Answer Choice Analysis:
(A) Premise

(B) Premise

(C) Premise

(D) Nice!

(E) Premise

Takeaway/Pattern: The easiest way to find this conclusion is to notice "for this reason alone, _____". Premises are reasons why we should believe the conclusion, so this is saying "because of the premise in the first sentence, we should believe this next claim."
