Almost every modern kitchen today is equipped with a microwave oven, mainly because microwave ovens offer an fast and convenient way of cooking and reheating food. Indeed, it has become a standard appliance in most households. Studies have shown, however, that microwave ovens are not completely safe and their use has occasionally resulted in serious injury. Because of this, some consumer advocates argue that microwave ovens should not be so readily accepted as a standard appliance until they can be certified to be completely safe.
Which of the following, if true, would most strengthen the argument of the consumer advocates?
A] Microwave ovens have taken much of the joy out of cooking.
B] There have been many reported incidences of people who have been scalded by liquids superheated in microwave ovens.
C] Absolute safety is the only criterion by which an appliance should be judged to be acceptable as "standard."
D] There is no such thing as a completely safe appliance.
E] Stoves and ovens that use natural gas consume energy much more efficiently than microwave ovens.
The OA is C.
See the option B carefully and see what it does to the argument. It does nothing to the argument.
The premise clearly states that the there have been accidents occurred before so again giving an example of it is not the correct answer choice.
It seems as the answer choice before but it is not the correct answer at all.
Hope this helped.
