Question

In the third paragraph of the passage, the author is primarily concerned with:

• A. presenting conflicting explanations for a phenomenon
• B. qualifying a previously expressed point of view
• C. providing an answer to a theoretical question
• D. attacking the assumptions that underlie a set of beliefs

Answer 1

The correct option is B

qualifying a previously expressed point of view

Qualifying a view means weakening a point in RC questions.
The starting line of 3^rd paragraph starts with “however”… which is a contra-transition word.
So we can come to the conclusion that the author is going to take a different stand compared to the previous line/paragraph.
So the answer is option (b).
