Explanation for Question 23 From the Reading Section on the 2017 April Sat
All right. Question number 23 is asking for evidence to the, 2 for the answer to the previous question. Um, 3 recall that the previous question number 22 was talking about how serious differs 4 from other objects in the asteroid belt, 5 um, because of its surface composition. 6 So we're looking for anything that speaks to its surface composition, 7 being different from, um, the other, 8 the other objects in that system. 9 So looking at her answer choices line, uh, 10 two to five is choice a, 11 um, this says the dwarf planet may have been born in the same realm 12 as Pluto, but traveled all the way to the asteroid belt between the orbits 13 of Mars and Jupiter. Um, 14 this is answer choice a doesn't really speak to its surface composition though. 15 So a is out, um, answer choice B was lines 16 eight to nine. Um, this does speak to a difference because it says that 17 series is by far the largest object in the asteroid belt, 18 but that's not the reason that's put forth by William McKinnon. 19 So note that, um, in question number 22, 20 the question actually asks specifically for what McKinnon puts forward as a major difference. 21 So that's why this answer choice doesn't work, 22 um, and answer choice C lines 18 to 20, 23 um, uh, 24 is here what's more, a different series. 25 Light spectrum may be a sign of ammonium rich clay at the surface. 26 Um, this refers exactly to its surface composition being different. 27 Um, the passage says that this material has never been found ...
