Hey, everyone.
I'd be interested in hearing your thoughts on why the passage supports D more strongly than E. I ended up going with D on the test, but didn't feel like I had an articulable justification for why it was a better choice.
The one thing I can think of is that the existence of a hole in the ozone somewhere other than above Antarctica (and perhaps one even larger than the one over Antarctica) is technically compatible with everything in the passage. Since the passage doesn't rule this out, the passage shouldn't be read as supporting any claims about the relative quantity upward flow of CFCs into the stratosphere above Antarctica.
An issue that made me hesitant about D: The passage indicates that the ozone layer would continue to deteriorate for years or decades even if CFC emission were eliminated immediately and completely. So any lowering of the incidence of skin cancer from such a policy would be very delayed. Maybe this consideration is sort of a trap - it doesn't make the answer choice any less supported by the passage, but does make it somehow intuitively less appealing.

Does anyone remember a question talking about accountants attending a seminar? It was a number/percentages. I had LR (25) questions, LG, LR (25), LR (26) and then RC (27). Trying to figure out if my first or second LR were real (my first also had the curbing drinking question).
I don't remember the accountants attending the seminar (though I may have just forgotten it). Are you saying this one was on the same section as the one with curbing drinking? I did have that one - I believe it was the first question of my first section.
