IMO C but 1 doubt -> C. Since the concert had been finished and the audience had filtered out, the maestro relaxed in the dressing room with the impresario. WHY NOT BOTH HAD BEEN IN PLACE OF ONE 'HAD BEEN' AND ONE 'HAD' ? 'had been finished' is the past perfect passive voice form of 'had finished' ...

Kinda agree with Andrea.
So what B says is that mercury was used specifically for a purpose.
If B weren't true, all people would have ingested mercury.

The wording in D is just meant to create a trap. It is not mercury, but venereal disease, that causes (or may cause) deafness.

bus speed!

If it took a bus 4 hours to get from town A to town B, what was the average speed of the bus for the trip?

1. In the first 2 hours the bus covered 100 miles.
2. The average speed of the bus for the first half of the distance was twice its speed for the second half.
