Question

Unlike the author of Passage 2, the author of Passage 1 develops his or her argument by.

• A. Citing an authority with whom he or she disagrees
• B. Referring to a famous speech delivered by King
• C. Discussing the universal human trait of dreaming
• D. Dismissing those who fail to understand the subtlety of Kings thought
• E. Assuming that his or her readers are completely unfamiliar with Kings ideas

Answer 1

The correct option is A Citing an authority with whom he or she disagrees

Where the author of the first passage cites former Georgia state legislator Julian Bond's views regarding commemorations of King; the author of the second passage does not cite any such figure or anyone at all. Thus A is the best answer.
