Reading the passage

We need the same relationship, not books about property. A gives general principles; B considers a particular situation in a way those principles can support. Look for a general framework followed by a concrete application.

Working the answers

  • A

    A system for winning at cards and a discussion of gambling's evils do not give us that relationship. The second title suggests a moral criticism of the activity, not an application of the first document's card-counting system.

  • B

    These titles take opposing positions on the same mayor: unfit to serve versus deserving reelection. A and B do not oppose each other in that way.

  • C

    Both are introductory guides, but their subjects are unrelated. Recipes do not apply the principles in a fruit-tree pruning guide. Similar intended audiences do not create the required connection.

  • D

    One document highlights a forecasting model's failures while the other praises it. That suggests competing assessments of the same model, not general principles followed by a particular application.

  • E
    Correct

    Construction and repair fundamentals supply general guidance. An engineering report identifies repairs needed by one building. That matches the move from a general account of just ownership and rectification to an analysis of particular land claims. The first title need not literally say theory; its broad fundamentals can do the same work in the relationship.
