Question

What is a logical solution to the issue of substance
abuse presented in the passage?
renewing the “Just Say No" program to prevent
substance abuse
maintaining several steps in the approval process
for mental health treatment
increasing the number of beds available for
substance-abuse treatment in hospitals
keeping the drug-approval process at current levels
to ensure that drugs are safe

Answer 1

The first one is kind of like abstinence, ideal but unlikely. The second would cause mentally ill people to turn to drugs and self-medicate. The third is focused on rehab. The last one doesn’t really encourage a change. So if the article has a tone of “just don’t do drugs in the first place,” the first choice is correct. If the article however has a tone of “we need to rehab people who couldn’t say no in the first place,” the pick the beds option
