[Video] Q14: Which choice most effectively completes the explanation of a possible origin of the lion dance?

Explanation for Question 14 From the Writing Section on the Official Sat Practice Test 8

So question number 14, we're asked to choose the answer choice. 2 The most effectively explains a possible origin of the lion dance. 3 So the key here is the origin of the lions lion dance. 4 We want to say where the lion dance came from right now. 5 A just tells us that lions are obviously very fierce. 6 So this answer choice doesn't even talk about the dance at all. 7 It just talks about, you know, a, a very common facts about lions. 8 It doesn't tell us about the dance and it certainly doesn't tell us about 9 where it came from. So a can't be correct. 10 Now be the evil, the evil spirit was called neon. 11 This one, doesn't talk about lion dance and it also doesn't bring up any 12 origin. It just tells us about evil spirit and whatever answer choice is. 13 It needs to talk about the origins or the, 14 the, the way the dance was created. 15 The way it started now, C says villagers dressed in lion costumes to scare 16 the spirits away, dress in lions costumes. 17 So this sounds like it could be about the lion dance here, 18 and then the origin. It looks like the cause of why they dress in 19 these costumes was to scare the spirit away. 20 So here's where we talk about the lion dance. 21 And then here's where we talk about the origin. So both come up and 22 answer choice C so C could be correct. 23 And then finally, D the precise location of the village remains lost to history. 24 We don't see anything about a dance here, 25 right? We just talk about the village. So D can't be right. 26 And our best answer is going to be C.
