Before the National Opera performs before a live audience, it practices for up to six months. The rigorous practice by the singers, the chorus, and the orchestra, both individually and as a cohesive unit, ensures there are as few mistakes as possible.
Which of the following inferences is best supported by the statements made above?
A. If the singers, the chorus, and the orchestra practice relentlessly, both individually and as a cohesive unit, for six full months, they perform flawlessly.
B. If it fails to prepare adequately, the National Opera is likely to make more mistakes.
C. If the National Opera does not prepare seriously they are liable to perform very poorly.
D. It is more important for the different parts of the National Opera to practice together; the separate practice stage is merely a preliminary one.
E. Opera plays an important part in the cultural life of the whole city and is therefore not to be taken lightly by the ensemble.

Should be a simple one.
Option A says if all the preparations are done perfectly, opera will perform flawlessly. This doesn't align because extensive
practice doesn't guarantee of a performance free from errors.
Option C has "very poorly" in it which is too extreme. Never so specified in the passage.
Option D says separate practice stage is merely a preliminary one. We do not have information about relative importance
of practice mode.
Option E is completely out of scope
Only option B states that if not prepared adequately, more errors are likely to take place which is true.
Correct option should be B

A. If the singers, the chorus, and the orchestra practice relentlessly, both individually and as a cohesive unit, for six full months, they perform flawlessly. (Not necessarily or guarantee a flawless performance) out of scope.
B. If it fails to prepare adequately, the National Opera is likely to make more mistakes. logically follows that inadequate preparation would likely lead to more mistakes during the performance. Correct
C. If the National Opera does not prepare seriously they are liable to perform very poorly. suggests that lack of serious preparation may lead to poor performance, which is consistent with the emphasis on rigorous practice. Irrelevant
D. It is more important for the different parts of the National Opera to practice together; the separate practice stage is merely a preliminary one. This option gives an new idea that the separate practice stage, which is not mentioned in question- Out of scope
E. Opera plays an important part in the cultural life of the whole city and is therefore not to be taken lightly by the ensemble. There is no mention of cultural life in question- Out of scope
IMO-B
