Residents - Trash Can - Test 12 Q 8 , CR10000

Expert replies
by gmatrant » Thu Oct 25, 2007 5:33 pm
Residents of an apartment complex are considering two possible plans for collecting recyclable trash.

Plan 1 - Residents will deposit recyclable trash in municipal dumpsters located in the parking lot. The trash will be collected on the first and the fifteenth days of each month.

Plan 2 - Residents will be given individual containers for recyclable trash. The containers will be placed at the curb twice a week for trash collection.
Which of the following points raised at a meeting of the residents, if valid, would most favor one of the recycling plans over the other?

(A) Residents will be required to exercise care in separating recyclable trash from nonrecyclable trash.

(B) For trash recycling to be successful, residents must separate recyclable bottles and cans from recyclable paper products.

(C) Penalties will be levied against residents who fail to sort their trash correctly.

(D) Individual recycling containers will need to be made of a strong and durable material.

(E) Recyclable trash that is allowed to accumulate for two weeks will attract rodents.

OA is[spoiler] C.[/spoiler]
The one i chose is wrong, explanation below, can anyone explain.

[spoiler]I chose E as it gives a clear edge with respect to which plan to choose, it clearly states choose plan B else if you go by plan A ,you will have rodents infesting the trash.
Plan A states that the residents will have 'dumpsters' so there is a possibility of having dumpsters segregated for types of trash(recyclable and non-recyclable). So by going with choice C there is every possibility of earning a fine in both the plans.

I will also go with E coz it stongly undermines the plan 1, C would actually affect both the plans as both require Residents to sort their trash correctly

But if its a common recycling dumpster nobody will be able to discern who put what, but if its an individual container and if they don't separate and if penalties are levied for not sorting, residents would prefer Plan 1.

For E, Plan 2 says trash will be picked up twice a week so rodent issue is not an issue at all since two weeks is not applicable. So I go with C also.

i first went with E but i think C is the correct answer - since the dumpster will be in the parking lot, the rodents wont be an issue.

the penalties will go against the 2nd plan bcos the refuse collectors will knw who to fine for not seperating trash, but since all residents dump their trash in the dumpster, the collectors cannot knw the particular resident that dnt seperate his trash...............

I don't understand why OA is C?! I also think that option E better.
