offshore oil-drilling operations entail an unavoidable risk of an oil spill, but importing oil on tankers presently entails an even greater such risk per barrel of oil. Therefore, if we are to reduce the risk of an oil spill without curtailing our use of oil, we must invest more in offshore operations and import less oil on tankers.
A) Tankers can easily be redesigned so that their use entails less risk of an oil spill

2)The cotton farm of Country Q became so productive that the market could not absorb all that they produced. Consquently, cotton prices fell.

A) Depressed cotton prices meant operating losses for cotton farms, and the government lost revenue from taxes on farm profits.
Why A is correct?
