Question

Which of the following, if true, would strengthen the speaker's argument?

• A. studies showing computers are expensive
• B. research on the effect of computer games on children
• C. examples of high school students who use computers improperly
• D. proof that the cost of computers is coming down
• E. evidence that using computers makes learning to read difficult

Answer 1

The correct option is E evidence that using computers makes learning to read difficult

This evidence would back up the speaker's contention that young students learn the basics before learning computers. Choices a and d, which are both about cost, would have not effect on the argument. Choices b and c are too vogue.
