Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The first column mentions that Dr. Wu gives a lot of homework, while the second column contrasts with a messy, disorganized classroom. Therefore, the missing detail should contrast with a neat, orderly classroom in the first column. Option B, rarely gives homework, would be the best choice for the missing detail in this case. The first column states that Dr. Wu gives a lot of homework, while the second column states that Mr. Franklin has a messy and disorganized classroom. Therefore, the missing detail should contrast with Mr. Franklin's disorganized classroom, not with Dr. Wu's teaching style or subject. Option B, rarely gives homework, is the only choice that contrasts with the second point about Mr. Franklin's classroom.
