POE -- I knew it wasn't C or D. A and B had the right words or phrases in the wrong places which just left E. I was gonna strike that but then I went back to the passage and realized there WAS testimony and that did change things. Hence, text support for E, so E is the right answer.
Obviously barring that E was not the answer it is, could D have merit if this was an inference question? idk what's wrong with me that i totally looked past E
#feedback maybe I’m misinterpreting but when the explanation says “The court thought the FWS’s interpretation of “traditional” defied common sense. Even though the natives hadn’t hunted sea otters within living memory, that was only because they were prevented from doing so. These circumstances should render sea otter hunting nontraditional.” Doesn’t that last sentence have a typo?
I totally misinterpreted "based on" in this question. I believe I was thinking of its colloquial usage, referring to the root cause/ foundation of something. I was initially thinking AC A) because of this misunderstanding, even though I knew the passage referred to the narrow interpretation of "tradition" rather than "long-standing".
If letter D discussed a new interpretation of the regulations that followed the 1972 law, could it be correct? I still think letter E would be the right one, because the decision would have to go through the testimonies before it could come to a new interpretation. But I'm not sure.
