LR Question 9 Explanation, by LSATHacks
QUESTION TEXT: Eva: A “smart highway” system should be installed, one that would…
QUESTION TYPE: Strengthen
ARGUMENTS: Luis points out that traffic reports already exist, on the radio.
Eve retorts (in the question stem) that radio reports aren’t long enough.
ANALYSIS: Three of the wrong answers address problems with the smart highway system. Those answers help Eve, but we’re trying to help Luis.
___________
- So? If bad weather slows traffic in both situations then this information doesn’t help Luis or Eve.
- CORRECT. Eve says the radio reports are too short. So why not just make them longer?
- This helps Eve, not Luis. This shows that a “smart” system can be superior to radio.
- This also helps Eve, by eliminating a potential downside of the new system. We’re trying to help Luis.
- This also helps Eve. Electronic tollbooths would make her system run smoothly.
