Question ID:PT25 S4 Q17 Passage:Concerned citizen:The mayor, an outspoken critic of the proposed restoration of city hall, is right when he notes that the building is outdated, but that the restoration would be expensive at a time when the budget is already tight. We cannot afford such a luxury item in this time of financial restraint, he says. However, I respectfully disagree. The building provides the last remaining link to the days of the city's founding, and preserving a sense of municipal history is crucial to maintaining respect for our city government and its authority. So to the question, "Can we really afford to?" I can only respond, "Can we afford not to?" Stem:Which one of the following most accurately characterizes a flaw in the concerned citizen's argument? Correct Answer Choice:BChoice A:The argument is solely an emotional appeal to history. Choice B:The argument ambiguously uses the word "afford." Choice C:The argument inappropriately appeals to the authority of the mayor. Choice D:The argument incorrectly presumes that the restoration would be expensive. Choice E:The argument inappropriately relies on the emotional connotations of words such as "outdated" and "luxury."
