Explanation for Question 42 From the Writing Section on the 2019 April Sat
Question number 42, this sentence reads objects to drones may be 2 engaged with regulations that require drone operators to keep drones with insight at all 3 times. And that require lights on drones to ensure they're visible. 4 And I might've misspoken here. It says objections. 5 So objections to drones may be what with regulations. 6 So let's, let's insert these different words into contact and just see what kind 7 of, what makes the most sense. So choice a says objections to John's maybe 8 engaged. He wouldn't really say you engage in objection. 9 So this doesn't quite fit. 10 Um, answer choice B is going to be our correct answer. 11 Addressed objections to drones may be addressed with regulations. 12 It would definitely make sense to say that you address an objection, 13 um, more so than it would make sense to say that you engage in 14 objection. So B is going to be our correct answer. 15 Um, similarly with C and D I wouldn't say you, 16 um, encounter an objection. 17 You might, you might actually encounter an objection, 18 um, to the extent that you, 19 um, observe it or make note of it, 20 but you wouldn't say that you encounter it, um, 21 when you seek to solve it. So here regulations are kind of solving these 22 objections and that's not the same meaning that encountered has. 23 If you encounter an objection, it's more you finding out about it or making 24 note of it for the first time, rather than you actually solving it. 25 So C doesn't really have the right meaning and the answer choice D refuted 26 here. We're not saying we're refuting an objection to refute an objection might mean 27 to point out ways that it is invalid or to disprove it. 28 Um, but here we're actually taking the step of solving the objection, 29 so addressed as a much better fit than refuted. 30 Um, and so we're going to stick with answer choice, 31 be addressed for question number 42.
