Almost every modern kitchen today is equipped with a microwave oven, mainly because microwave ovens offer a 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.
Hi,
I need to confirm whether the logic I am using to arrive at the correct answer is right.
Conclusion of the argument:
CCS ---> SA: An appliance, which is certified to be completely safe can be considered a standard appliance.
I am not sure but is it fine to associate this question with cause and reasoning i.e A cause B can be strengthened by stating that nothing else other than A to cause B which is done by C in the above question.
Experts can you please throw some light on this question.
Thanks in advance!!
