Can anyone pls explain why C is not the answer here?
If Many notable structures in China that are described in the book were hundreds of years old at the time Marco Polo supposedly traveled to China, then Marco Polo might have known about these structures and he doesn’t have to visit China to mention these structures in his book.

Are these Olympic Ques aligned with the official ques? Though, I had left the competition and attended hardly for just two days. Pls provide some clarification on my doubt. Because I am relying on the official guide materials and will take the actual exam soon. Thanks in advance!

Can someone please explain this CR question, Iam not getting at all how conclusion is related here ..


In the United States, landowners are effectively insured against natural disasters because the government subsidizes all land repairs by providing emergency relief after natural disasters. This “subsidy” is a partial cause for the high percentage of houses built on disaster-prone lands because it gives owners no financial incentive to research whether the land on which they build their houses is secure against disaster, argues an actuary. If owners were more selective, then potential house sites would need to be safe before being developed.

The actuary’s argument makes which of the following assumptions?

A) Natural disasters are most costly when they strike large houses built close together.

B) A large percentage of landowners own several different lands across states.

C) The most careful site selection tends to be by owners building the more expensive houses.

D) The difference in the relief amounts paid to owners by different states has no major effect on site selection.

E) Potential builders can know which lands are secure against disaster.

A few thoughts….
1. You have almost 1000 posts and have been on gmatclub for five years, you should be a pretty good judge of questions and how closely they resemble their official questions.
2. The competition to be very close to the official though I feel they have largely failed to be hard and mostly ended up being medium difficulty. We’ve been getting 80 to 90% accuracy rate in the last few days….
