SECTION 4 · lr

The author draws an analogy between swimming pools and unhealthy food. Although we should fence pools to protect children, it’s more important to teach children to swim. Similarly, although we should restrict children’s access to certain unhealthy foods, it’s more important to teach children how to choose a healthy diet.

It’s more important to teach children how to choose a healthy diet (just as it’s more important to teach children how to swim).

Unsupported. The source of learning material isn’t part of the pool analogy. So, a claim about what is a good source of information doesn’t fit in the blank.

Unsupported. The pool analogy didn’t involve any deceptive or misleading claims. So, a claim about advertisements being deceptive or misleading doesn’t fit in the blank.

Strongly supported. Just as it’s more important to teach children how to swim than to fence off swimming pools, it’s more important to teach children how to choose a healthy diet than to restrict them from bad foods.

Unsupported. The pool analogy concerns teaching children skills to manage a risky situation (a pool). So, the argument should finish with something concerning teaching children how to manage choices of foods. The importance of exercise doesn’t relate to choices of foods.

Unsupported. The pool analogy didn’t involve having children forgo reading or learning about pools. So, a statement concerning having children forgo watching television doesn’t fit in the blank.
