The popular press continually advises people to avoid various health risks. Yet by seeking to avoid health risks, people inevitably become anxious, and anxiety, in turn, poses a health risk. Thus, paradoxical as it seems, simply disregarding journalists' advice about reducing health risks is bound to pose less of a health risk than does trying to follow any such advice.
The given argument assumes which of the following?
A) The popular press is not unanimous in its recommendations to people wishing to avoid various health risks.
B) The anxiety, if any, produced by disregarding generalists' advice to avoid health risks is less than that produced by attempting to heed this advice.
C) Most sources of dealing with personal anxiety are themselves anxiety inducinng.
D) A significant proportion of the people who, following generalists' advice, seek to avoid specific health risks cannot avoid those risks completely.
E) Journalists who advise people to avoid various health risks render their advice in needlessly alarming language.
The given argument assumes which of the following?
A) The popular press is not unanimous in its recommendations to people wishing to avoid various health risks.
B) The anxiety, if any, produced by disregarding generalists' advice to avoid health risks is less than that produced by attempting to heed this advice.
C) Most sources of dealing with personal anxiety are themselves anxiety inducinng.
D) A significant proportion of the people who, following generalists' advice, seek to avoid specific health risks cannot avoid those risks completely.
