Which statement best explains the relationship between the underlined text on pages 2 and 4 of the passage? A. The text on page 2 proposes a theory that the text on page 4 serves to disprove. B. The text on page 2 proposes a solution to address the problem described in the text on page 4. C. The text on page 2 makes a broad claim that the text on page 4 supports with specific details. D. The text on page 2 describes the goal of a process that is imagined in the text on page 4.

Answer: C

Explanation: Assuming the underlined sentence on page 2 states a general or broad claim and the underlined material on page 4 provides examples, data, or specific details that back up that claim, option C best describes their relationship. Options A, B, and D describe contradiction, problem–solution, or goal–process relationships that don’t match the assumed claim→support pattern.
