I'm confused. B appeared to be refrancing the "however" statement. The excerpt definetely did not sound like it was offering and alternative to support a practice the argument was claiming.
That sounds a lot more like the "however" statement.
tbh I eliminated B after "it is a fact". If something is a hypothetical situation, how is that situation considered a fact? did this throw anyone else off or just me?
Option B stated "It is a fact granted by the editorial that lends some support to an alternative to the practice that the editorial defends as preferable."
And I read the last clause ("that the editorial defends as preferable") as referring to "an alternative." So I thought "well the editorial does not defend the alternative as preferable" and ruled out B. Did I make a reasonable interpretation, or is that just flat-out wrong?
I discarded A a a possible answer because it does not seem like a "fact". The stem refers to the excerpt as a "contention". The excerpt is itself a conditional/hypothetical statement about a future possibility. Additionally, it doesn't event seem like the author grants the conditional. The author grants that some people would sort the garbage and the it would "cost about as much as the involuntary system." So the town is saving money? One of the only questions, I can't seems to get anything useful from. What am I missing? #feedback

So much easier than NA! WE ARE SO BACK!
These AP questions, really Grind my Gears, ruffle my feathers, bakes my nerves, and changes my light-bulbs.......
I read B as concluding the alternative practice (involuntary system) to be preferable. Need to read slowly...

...are we back..?
Crushed it. Gonna go out Friday and let the ladies know I conquer 4 star questions on 7Sage.
does anyone else have this problem where this question does not have the check mark on the bottom left to check your answers?
Took me almost 3 minutes but i chose the correct answer :-)
UGHHHHHH I was staring at B the whole time but I just thought the language was strong... Turns out that's what this needed 😅
I'm so sad, I originally chose B then thought about it too much and kept flipping between B and D....then ultimately chose D. Ughhhhhhhhh.

This question called me illiterate in 6 different ways
If B lends support, wouldn't it be a premise?
I know I will regret jinxing this but I think AP questions are gonna be my u know what - (we're only the second you try in and I'm getting cocky)
going from NA to this makes me feel so whimsical
I love these questions <3
this was tricky I had B and switched to A
POE is honestly very helpful here too
