LSAT 106 | Section 4 | Reading Comprehension: Q25

RC Question 25 Explanation

DISCUSSION: It’s best to solve this type of question part by part. For instance, there were no solutions offered in the passage. So any answer that offers a solution is out. That eliminates A and C.

Likewise, the end of the passage never says why we should avoid the problem of bad films, and the author never asks for help. That eliminates D and E.

The first part of each answer is pretty similar.

___________

1. This is very close. But the passage doesn’t end with a solution. Lines 52-57 are pessimistic; they imply that Hollywood will keep making bad movies.
2. CORRECT. Notice that this matches A exactly, except for the last part. The consequence is that good films will become rarer, see lines 52-57.
3. The third part is the problem. The author never mentions a solution.
4. The end is nonsense. Lines 52-57 suggest a consequence (more bad films), but they don’t tell us how to avoid it.
5. There’s no appeal for assistance at the end. There’s just a pessimistic prediction that films will keep getting bad.
    
   We also don’t know why the star system grew into a mass media complex.
