I was torn between (C) and (D), and i chose (C) over (D). Request you to help me understand why my thought process is incorrect:
So, i thought, i should choose the option which is MOST closely aligned with and MOST supported by the argumentabove.
D. The method used after the mid-twentieth century for funding U.S. technological innovations can intensify the severity of arecession.
Argument says: technological innovation mitigated the effects of an economic recession.
But this option says: ''intensify''.
I thought, ''X'' reduces the effect of ''Y'', doesn't mean removal of ''X'' will INTENSIFY theseverity.
C. Putting limits on venture-capital funding during a recession can mitigate the effects of that recession in theU.S.
''Putting limits'' means: the limitation of something is the act or process ofcontrolling orreducing it.
So if one controls the VC's funding, you will not allow the ''funding plunges'', and hence CAN ''mitigate''
