Dominant interests often benefit most from of governmental interferenc

Question

Dominant interests often benefit most from of governmental ______________ interference in business, since they are able to take care of themselves if left alone.

A. intensification
B. authorization
C. centralization
D. improvisation
E. elimination

Carcass · Answer

The correct answer is elimination. The second part of the sentence says that dominant interests are able to take care of themselves if left alone. This implies that government interference is not necessary for them. Note the negative connotations in the word "interference" and the positive connotations in "benefit". Thus, the elimination of the negative interference would lead to a benefit. An intensification or authorization of interference would have the opposite effect. Options C & D do not fit well with the noun "interference".

Official Explanation

The sentence explains why dominant interests often benefit from a certain condition. Since the explanation is that they are able to take care of themselves if left alone, it follows that the condition is one in which interference is absent. Thus the best answer is “elimination.” None of the other answer choices suggests an absence of interference — indeed “intensification,” “authorization,” and “centralization” suggest quite the opposite. Thus the correct answer is elimination (Choice E).
