Which of the following, if true, most seriously calls into question the explanation above?
A. On average, people consume twenty percent less beef today than they did fifteen years ago.
B. Habitual beef eaters may suffer mild gastrointestinal distress for a few weeks or so after significantly reducing their beef consumption.
C. Beef prices increased steadily in the last fifteen years because of the degradation of land used to graze cattle.

A promising student of taekwondo once asked his coach how long it would take him to earn his black belt, signifying the end of his training. Thinking carefully, the coach replied, “If you practice three hours a day for six days a week, you could earn your black belt in five years.” Unhappy, the student asked, “What if I practice eight hours a day, every day?” The coach then said, “If you do so, you will probably never move beyond a blue belt.”
The main point that the coach makes here is that in martial arts, a critical value is
A. curiosity
B. patience
C. dedication
