Re: 780+ CR question #6
the answer should be (a).
erik is basically arguing that, because faulty wiring is a BIGGER issue than lightning, we just shouldn't worry about lightning at all. he fails to provide a compelling reason AGAINST mitigating the effects of lightnining; that's what (a) says.
--
it's probably easiest to solve this problem by process of elimination.
the elimination of (c), (d), (e) is pretty straightforward, since erik's response clearly does none of the things mentioned in those choices.
as for (b), it's true that erik doesn't offer an alternative way of lessening the risk of lightning, but there's no reason why he would have to do that; no one is arguing that we need an alternative to lightning rods. erik argues that it's pointless to mitigate the effects of lightning, at all, by any method whatsoever (so alternatives would be irrelevant).
--
by the way, why are you labeling all these problems as "780+"?
these aren't even gmat problems - much less gmat problems for which you know the difficulty level.
please don't post statistics that you've just made up out of thin air (so that our posters don't have a distorted view of difficulty levels etc).
thanks.
