OG12-99 Argument Construction Situation Irradiation kills bacteria but it also lowers the amount of nutrients—including vitamin B1—in foods. Proponents try to dismiss this concern by arguing that cooking destroys B1 as well. Th at point is said to be misleading. Reasoning Which option most logically completes the argument? For the proponents’ claim to be misleading it needs to be suggesting something about irradiation that is false. By stating that irradiation destroys no more B1 than cooking does, the proponent seems to be suggesting that any food that is going to be cooked might as well be irradiated because it will end up with the same amount of B1 either way. But if the eff ects of radiation and cooking combine to destroy more B1 than cooking or irradiation alone would, then the proponents’ claim suggests something that is false. A Th is might make the assurances of the proponents less credible but it does not make their claim misleading. B Nothing about the proponents’ claim suggests that the only eff ect irradiation has is to kill bacteria. C Th e fact that cooking and irradiation have diff erent purposes does not indicate that the proponents’ claim suggests something that is false. D If anything, this strengthens the proponents’ point by minimizing the relative damage caused by irradiation. E Correct. Th is option most logically completes the argument. Th e correct answer is E. |
