Nice passage. All correct.
Another instance that proves that sensing the author's tone is very crucial in passages dealing with Laws such as this one.
Hi TaN1213,
How are you?
Can you please explain question no 2? I fell for A.
Help is well appreciated
Hello
arvind910619,
I am very well. Hope you are doing well too.
Answer to Q2 lies in the following excerpt from the passage-
"Thus, the theory and the practice of interventionism ultimately tend to abandon the principles that originally distinguished the free enterprise system from systems largely based on central planning, such as the former Soviet economy.
In a truly free market, financial sector entities should be allowed to succeed or fail based on individual merit. "While option A is close to be correct, option D is better as it can be found explicitly in the portion where central planning is discussed (excerpt above). The bold part says that central planning should not take place. The preceding sentence says that it had happened in the former Soviet economy. Author is clearly not very happy about this and considers it a mistake, as evident from the immediately succeeding bold part suggestion that he/she gives. (Pay attention whenever you find suggestions using the word 'should' in any RC, as it is what the author believes and the reason why he/she writes this passage) The mention of FORMER Soviet economy is done to express his/her resentment towards central planning.
Had option D not been given, A would have been the credible answer.
Hope this helped.
