Princeton Review
XM Representative: Your federal committee thoroughly reviews all of the geoengineering industry’s planned projects and approves only those that meet your guidelines for safety and environmental impact. Since less than two percent of XM projects have ever been rejected, the costly and time-consuming review should be waived so that our latest project can be passed and implemented quickly.
Committee Member: Your request fails to consider that the decisions of our board affect not only the corporation involved, but also the entire field. If we fail to review your project, we also fail to observe innovations in geo-engineering that may need guidelines drafted for the safety of subsequent projects throughout the industry.
In the table below, please identify the additional evidence that most strengthens and the additional evidence that most weakens the committee member’s response to the XM representative.

Statement A weakens the statement of Committee member since if the XM's latest project is identical to the previous one,which had already been passed then there is actually no need of reviey here
Statement C strengthens the statement of Committee member since the benefit of the approval process is that there are no further reviews required in future,making the whole process fast and smooth
