Why is A opted out , how does one know that industrail development effects are not being taken into consideration here ??


A put industry development, which is not relevant.

The whole passage is talking about Oil construction, technology, pollution. We should find some OA mention something related.

Agree with b too! Since it already states that the security system works! Assuming that it will not work here is grasping too far! Why wouldn't it? B is a more plausible explanation for why pollution might accure!

Are you talking about the first argument posted or the GMATPrep question? If it is the latter one, the correct answer is C.

B for me. I used the A.N.T technique and B fit the best. Spent 2:15 on this Q. I knew the answer was B at 1:10 but I reread question stem and answer choices

I go for B
B is the best when compare with C, B is a more fundamental issue for the problem. When construction itself cause problem, whether leaking preventing technology is effective or not is no longer a main issue

IMO- B,

Premise- "an oil pipeline across the lake’s bottom might revive pollution and cause the fish population to decline" and "a technology for preventing leaks is being installed".
Conclusion-"provided this technology is effective, those fears are groundless."

Hence the Assumption in Option B-"Other than the possibility of a leak, there is no realistic pollution threat posed to the lake by the pipeline’s construction." is correct.
