Reading the passage
Four choices should match something said about narrative literature; one should not. I'll check the claims against the text rather than treat every plausible benefit of reading as something the author promised.
Working the answers
- A
The final paragraph says this approach can correct rigid absolutism without requiring students to relinquish all moral principles. That supports avoiding the extreme relativism described there.
- B
Paragraph two directly connects narratives to the diversity and specificity of lived experience. We don't have to rely on the less precise memory that different perspectives were mentioned.
- C
The opening calls for new ways of thinking about and interacting with patients, then offers narrative-based training as one method. This is central to the recommendation.
- D
Paragraph three expressly requires readers to examine moral issues from new perspectives by adopting another person's viewpoint.
- ECorrect
Nothing says future doctors will be insulated from shock. Learning to understand a difficult situation and reason through it doesn't necessarily reduce its emotional impact. That could be a separate possible benefit, but it isn't one the author gives us.
