Q16 - Nutrition education in schools once promoted daily con

by dahee.suh Mon Jun 29, 2015 11:37 pm

Premise: nutrition education once promoted daily consumption of each of the four food groups: milk, fruit and vegetables, breads, cereals
Conclusion: this recommendation was dangerous to health.

Stregthen Except Question

Since the premise doesnt contribute a lot to the conclusion, I saw it as background info to cross out answer choices that give reasons why the recommendation is dangerous to health.

With B and D, ended up choosing D because it seemed to weaken the argument. However, I can't figure out how B strenghens the argument. It feels irrelevant to me because the ommission of fish isnt necessarily dangerous to health. Also, I have it in my head that usually for strengthen or weaken questions with stimulus that doesnt have any comparative/relative statements, the answer choice with comparative/relative statements are generally wrong because they are irrelevant.

I would appreciate an explanation about answer choice B. Thanks!

Exactly, (D) weakens the argument.

(B), while you make valuable criticisms of it, at least doesn't weaken and arguably strengthens. I think omitting something healthy in favor of something less healthy is support for the argument that it's not good/dangerous to health. That means people think it's healthier to eat something that's actually less healthy to eat.

This makes (D) the clear choice.

As for the others:

(A) is a solid criticism of the four-food-groups model. So are (C) and (E).

Best Birthday Party Gift For Son?

by Elizabetht318 Thu Jul 25, 2024 8:56 am

I'm searching for the best birthday gift for my son, who absolutely loves gaming. Considering his passion for games, would an Xbox be a great choice? I've also been thinking about adding some extra fun to his birthday party with a balloon arch from houseofparty.com. Has anyone used their balloon arches before? How was your experience, and do you have any tips for making his birthday party extra special?
