7. A recent survey showed that many workers in a certain company are dissatisfied with their jobs. The survey also showed that most of the dissatisfied workers believe that they have little control over their job assignments. Therefore, to increase workers job satisfaction the company’s management need only concentrate on changing workers’ beliefs regarding the degree of control they have over their job assignments.

Which one of the following, if also shown by the survey, would most seriously call into question the conclusion made by the author of the passage?

(A) The dissatisfied workers feel that their wages are too low and working conditions are unsatisfactory.

(B) The number of workers in the company who are satisfied with their jobs is greater than the number who are dissatisfied.

(C) The workers in the company are more dissatisfied than workers in other companies

(D) Most people in company management believe that the workers already have too much control over their work.

(E) The workers in the company who are satisfied with their jobs believe that they have a lot of control over their job assignments.

the right answer is a, my choice is e, both a and e are correct, but I think e is better

 Since no one returns from death, we can never be certain about what passes through the mind of the dying person. For the unconscious, the confused, and the heavily sedated, these final moments are probably meaningless. However, for the mentally alert, it is quite possible that death presents itself as an unbelievably glorious experience, a flight into an entirely new universe of sensation. Why should we think so? Some people who have been reprieved from “certain” death at the last moment have experienced what goes through the consciousness of those who are not so fortunate. For example, parachutists who have survived falls report experiences that resemble psychedelic “trips.”

The primary point of the argument in the passage is

(A) no one returns from death

(B) dying can be a glorious experience

(C) we can never know what passes through the mind of a dying person

(D) some people are reprieved from death at the last moment

(E) some people “die”, yet live to report their, experiences.

key is b, mine is e, no clue why
