GMAT Verbal Reasoning Practice Test 6

Question : 94 of 100

Marks: +1, -0

Airplane manufacturer: I object to your characterization of our X-387 jets as dangerous. No X-387 in commercial use has ever crashed or even had a serious malfunction.
Airline regulator: The problem with the X-387 is not that it, itself, malfunctions, but that it creates a turbulence in its wake that can create hazardous conditions for aircraft in its vicinity.
The airline regulator responds to the manufacturer by doing which of the following?

Characterizing the manufacturer’s assertion as stemming from subjective interest rather than from objective evaluation of the facts
Drawing attention to the fact that the manufacturer’s interpretation of the word “dangerous” is too narrow
Invoking evidence that the manufacturer has explicitly dismissed as irrelevant to the point at issue
Citing statistical evidence that refutes the manufacturer’s claim
Casting doubt on the extent of the manufacturer’s knowledge of the number of recent airline disasters
