Question: 129

9. Since movies have become more _____, many people believe television to be _____.

  • A. helpful ... utilitarian
  • B. expensive ... necessary
  • C. common ... inadequate
  • D. costly ... useless

Correct Answer: B

Explanation:

The correct answer is (B). Movies and television are both media of entertainment. The sentence compares the two media in terms of their cost, stating that many people believe television (which is free after the initial investment in the set) is NECESSARY because movies have become so EXPENSIVE (and therefore out of reach for many people).
