Reading the passage

Use the farm example to fix the meaning. Farm owners set the agenda by determining the specific uses of their land. The question is what the land will be used for, not what time a meeting starts or which topics it will cover.

Working the answers

  • A
    Correct

    Plan for use captures what the owner decides about the resource. It fits the example of choosing how the farm's land will be used and the later requirement that others' interests be harmonized with that authority.

  • B

    This is a familiar meaning of agenda in a meeting, but no list of discussion topics is involved here.

  • C

    A timetable says when events occur. The owner's authority here concerns the use of the resource, not a schedule of events.

  • D

    The agenda is a plan governing use, not a single task that must be finished.

  • E

    Nothing suggests hidden intentions. The author is describing an owner's decision-making role, not questioning what the owner secretly wants.
