Q2

by uhdang Wed Jun 03, 2015 12:04 am

This is the Organization question. Since it's the first passage, it was pretty clear for us to see the organization with three parts: Pros of using Computer graphic display, Cons of using the display, and Steps to be taken to prevent Cons.

Now, let's go to the answer choice

A) This passage starts with pointing out the positive aspect of the technology. It doesn't start with "lamenting" the technology.
B) Where are the negative aspects and suggested steps to be taken?
C) "Alternative use" is nowhere to be introduced.
D) Bingo. (Correct)
E) “promoting the widespread use” is not what the last paragraph was about.
"Fun"

I disagree how the answer is D - it should be A.

Judging by the first sentence of the passage, it seems like he's lamenting the fact that it's a popular tool and that it's useful. It does both.

"displays in courtrooms are growing...."

You can say that the author does introduce displays throughout the whole paragraph as useful but you can't deny that he also laments it's popularity and purpose.

I feel like I can ALWAYS argue against other answer choices on Reading Comp and that's why I can never fully get it. I point to the passage and understand what the author says, but I always choose the wrong answer of the two because I fervently believe it sounds one way over another.


Wtf do I do...
