Question 5


agrasan
{...}

In question-5, why option B is wrong?

size=125 an increase in the number of students signing up for introductory courses in Asian American studies[/size]

"Such works would enable students taking Asian American studies courses (and professors in related fields) to look up basic information on Asian..."

My reasoning is "would enable students" and "basic information" suggests that such works would lead to an increase in the number of students taking introductory courses.
Such works would be helpful to students taking Asian American studies courses, but nothing in the passage suggests that this would cause an increase in enrollment.

Choice (E), on the other hand, is directly supported by the passage: "... given such works, Asian American studies professors might feel more free to include more challenging Asian American material in their introductory reading lists...". The professors would feel more comfortable assigning more challenging material. Including more challenging material would cause an increase in the range of materials assigned.
