My main issue was that I did not read answer choice E correctly. I thought that once it is removed, it would not be disturbed again while in the landfills which poses no health threats, but in reality it is saying that there is no guarantee that it won't be disturbed again which means that it could pose a health threat that way. I chose B originally, but I knew that it was not the correct answer choice, but couldn't think of any other AC. It is very important, especially for me, to read the answer choices carefully.
Just a question on the question stem. Should it not say something along the lines of, “which one of the following exhibits a flawed method of reasoning similar to the one in the passage?” or something like that? This does seem like the argument is confirming the sufficient statement because of the confirmation of the necessity. If you confirm the necessity, it does not mean you confirm the sufficient and that is what the stimulus does.
I originally chose B, but switched to A because I thought that the supplement would be considered a solid food, therefore eating it would decrease lactase.
@ruth.olvera1027 Me too! I'm so glad I was not the only one. I really need to read carefully.
@alai I actually came across another question like this on one of the newer exams. Apparently, even if it doesn’t state in the question stem that it’s a PF question, it sometimes might be. J.Y. even mentions it in the explanation video.
