Hi, Please give explanation to question 1(with reasons to eliminate the incorrect options).
Thanks:)
Hi
Vanshika04,
1) It can be inferred that a political favor “in the truest sense” (highlighted text) is one that
A) involves both private and public commercial interests
B) demands benefits for a particular constituency as well as for the politician who represents it
C) provides reciprocal payments in both financial and political support
D) involves only candidates for high federal positions
E) represents an exchange of confidence and mutual support in carrying out particular policies
Explanation: "Favors are still involved in amicitial, but they are political in the truest sense." These lines imply that amicitial, the responsible friendship is the friendship in the truest political sense. The friendship not only involves political or immediate benefits, but the opportunity that it provides the pursuit of political objectives after the election, implying that it represent confidence and mutual support in carrying out policies.
Option A is incorrect, because it not related to what's asked in the passage w.r.t the amicitial friendship in concern.
Option B is incorrect, as the friendship doesn't demand it, instead the benefits are the result of this friendship.
Option C is incorrect, the friendship doesn't actually provide reciprocal payments, it simply represents the strictest political meaning, where no more than what is given as a favor is returned ,
Option D is incorrect, as its irrelevant w.r.t to what's asked.
Hope This Helps.
Thanks.
