This statement is about interference and does not directly relate to propositional representations in memory. The other statements all provide evidence for propositional representations. B shows that subjects are able to combine and comprehend different propositions. C shows that subjects rely on the relationship between propositions (i.e. slow children eat cold bread) rather than just isolated words. D shows that subjects can remember the meaning of a sentence, which implies propositional representations.
