RC Question 14 Explanation, by LSATHacks

DISCUSSION: Lines 32-36 are the key here. No language has ever had it’s written and oral forms match exactly.

___________

1. CORRECT. If no language has been an exact match then it’s probably impossible for the tribes to achieve that goal. 
2. This is extreme. There are plenty of things that are good to imagine in principle even if they are impossible in practice. In any case, the author doesn’t mention this.
3. Lines 32-36 contradict this. If no language has succeeded, why should the author think a match will occur? 
4. This is pretty extreme. The author doesn’t say anything like this, and lines 32-36 seem to contradict it. 
5. You need a sentence from the passage to support your answers. The author doesn’t mention motives.
