Q2. Although studies have found bamboo to be a better raw material than cement and mortar for use in the construction industry, as it is cheaper and more environment-friendly, most builders are concerned that home buyers will be resistant to the idea of houses built of bamboo. Nevertheless, experts predict that the use of bamboo in the construction industry will soon see a rapid increase. Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the prediction outlined above? A. Although it grows only in specific regions, bamboo is relatively easy to grow and does not require as much maintenance as other crops. B. Bamboo cannot be grown in coastal areas since salt water and humidity have been proven to have an adverse effect on the growth of the plant in such areas. C. Many building materials sourced from natural resources can also be used to make items such as household furniture and farming implements. D. According to recent studies, bamboo is much more resilient than it was previously believed to be, and houses made out of bamboo are expected to require much less maintenance than those made of more commonly used materials. E. Environmental organizations have recently become much more vocal about the multiple ways in which the environment is being exploited.
