Got caught between AC-A, D, E. Totally ruling out AC-B - why might those have been incorrect?

    They're just not supported.

    A - nothing is stated about their understanding of its function
    C - we dont know this... we dont even know what shape the rolling pins they used were.
    D - this is talking about any of the utensils they used. Maybe they could easily ID any knife for instance even if they hadn't use that specific one.
    E - panic trap. They very well could be able to distinguish between them, but only associate the term with the one they used.

    B is the only thing that works. They each ID'ed only their rolling pin so they all think the name applies to a different object—their own rolling pin.

    A: They knew the function of the rolling pins for the ones they used, so this is not entirely true
    B: This is true for all the boys knew there was only one rolling pin in the entire pile (The one they played with)
    C: The stimuli does not state that they do
    D: Speaks to utensils but not rolling pins
    E: Similar to AC B, in order for this to be valid you have to recognize AC B first.
