Reading the passage
This asks which question we can actually answer from what we've read. There's no single detail to predict. We know how the author characterizes current teaching and what statutory training could add; check whether each proposed question is settled by that information.
Working the answers
- A
The described route to stronger synthesis is studying interrelated statutes. We aren't given ways that case analysis strengthens it.
- B
No areas of practice are ranked by whether case analysis or statutory proficiency is more valuable.
- C
The author contrasts skills emphasized by the two approaches rather than identifying their common skills. We don't get the requested account of that overlap.
- D
The geographic objection is developed for nationally oriented schools whose graduates may practice elsewhere. The author doesn't list objections to statutory training in regionally oriented schools.
- ECorrect
The first paragraph identifies the current emphasis on court rulings and case study (paragraph 1). That directly answers the question about the curriculum's primary emphasis. The later discussion of what statutory training could add builds on that description.
