Herbalist: While standard antibiotics typically have just one active ingredient, herbal antibacterial remedies typically contain several. Thus, such herbal remedies are more likely to retain their effectiveness against new, resistant strains of bacteria than are standard antibiotics. For a strain of bacteria, the difficulty of developing resistance to an herbal antibacterial remedy is like a cook’s difficulty in trying to prepare a single meal that will please all of several dozen guests, a task far more difficult than preparing one meal that will please a single guest. In the analogy drawn in the argument above, which one of the following corresponds to a standard antibiotic? (A) a single guest (B) several dozen guests (C) the pleasure experienced by a single guest (D) a cook (E) the ingredients available to a cook |

Passage is saying that standard antibiotic has only one active ingredient while herbal antibacterial have several ones. For this reason the bacteria have more difficult to fight against herbal antibiotics, given that bacteria have to fight several active ingredients, compared to fight against standard antibiotics which have only a single ingredient. Here the analogy: In the same way, for a cook (bacteria) it’s more difficult to please (to fight) several guests (active ingredients) with one meal (virus), than to please(to fight) a single guest (standard antibiotic) with the same meal (virus). Therefore, here the standard antibiotic is compared to the single guest. Answer is A. Posted from my mobile device |

Standard antibiotics typically have just one active ingredient Herbal antibacterial remedies typically contain several ingredients -> thus, are more likely to retain their effectiveness against new, resistant strains of bacteria than are standard antibiotics. For a strain of bacteria - the difficulty of developing resistance to an herbal antibacterial remedy (which contains several ingredients) is like a cook’s difficulty in trying to prepare a single meal (resistance) that will please all of several dozen guests (ingredients), a task far more difficult than preparing one meal (resistance) that will please a single guest (one active ingredient). Therefore, in the analogy drawn above, a single guest corresponds to a standard antibiotic. Answer A |
