[Video] Q6: Which choice best supports the statement made in the previous sentence?

Explanation for Question 6 From the Writing Section on the Official Sat Practice Test 3

And now number six, which they had incorrectly labeled as number four in this 2 version of the test asks us which choice best supports the statement and the 3 previous sentence. So let's go ahead and read what our previous sentence says. 4 And it says that employees who feel less than 100% and are sleep deprived 5 are also less prone to work at their maximum productivity. 6 So we're talking about people being less than a hundred percent feeling, 7 sleep deprived. So they're not getting good sleep. 8 They're not, you know, maximally productive. 9 And then as we read the sentence, as it is, 10 it says one company in California gained a huge boost and employee's morale when 11 it moved from artificially lit to natural illumination. 12 And so we see, you know, a huge boost in morale as a positive 13 thing, which we would expect something positive to happen when you switch to natural 14 elimination, according to the sentence, 15 at least, but being sleep deprived and being productive is not the same 16 thing as having high morale. 17 So a is close, but it's just a little bit off topic because of 18 the word morale. Now, 19 B explicitly talks about increasing productivity and we saw the word productivity 20 in the sentence before. So B should look pretty good. 21 Now see says saved a great deal on operational costs. 22 And that prior sense we didn't talk about costs and we didn't talk, 23 you know, about saving money. It was about productivity. 24 So C is off topic and then finally D invested a large invested large 25 amounts of time and capital. We didn't talk about investment or capital or even 26 time, right? So just like C, N a D is off topic and B 27 use our best answer because it's the only one that talks about productivity.
