Antonio: One can live a life of moderation by never
deviating from the middle course. But then one
loses the joy of spontaneity and misses the
opportunities that come to those who are
occasionally willing to take great chances, or to
go too far.
Marla: But one who, in the interests of moderation,
never risks going too far is actually failing to live
a life of moderation: one must be moderate even
in one's moderation.
Antonio and Marla disagree over
(A) whether it is desirable for people occasionally
to take great chances in life
(B) what a life of moderation requires of a person
(C) whether it is possible for a person to embrace
other virtues along with moderation
(D) how often a person ought to deviate from the
middle course in life
(E) whether it is desirable for people to be
moderately spontaneous

I thought It should be D.
But I change my answer to B.
I discounted A and E because of the presence of the word "desirable".Then i Discounted C because of Virtues.
Neither Antonio nor Marla , state anything about how often a moderate person should deviate from a Moderate path.
Antonio assumes that a person following the Middle path is strictly following Moderation.
Marla says a Moderate person should moderately follow the Moderate path and should not always be moderate in his decisions and choices.

IMO - B : what a life of moderation requires of a person
Reason: Both defines Moderation differently. one say : people in moderation never go too far / take risk, other say if you won't take risk / go too far then you not in Moderation.
only B some what says this.
Share OA plz.
