Question
Which one of the following best describes the organization of the passage?
Options:
A .  A description of a thesis is offered, specific cases are considered, and an evaluation is given.
B .  A thesis is brought forward, the thesis is qualified, and evidence that calls the qualification into question is stated.
C .  A series of evaluations are given, concrete reasons are put forward, and a future direction for research is suggested.
D .  Comparisons and contrasts are made, some categories of evaluation are suggested, and a framework for applying these categories is implied.
E .  BBBAB
Answer: Option A
:
A
The whole passage's structure is as follows:
Pocock's civic humanism theory is described. Then the author presents the example of "eighteenth-century English political” where this theory holds true.
Then he presents the example of "late-eighteenth-century United States” where this theory does not hold true.
Finally the author gives his evaluation of civic humanism theory in the last line of the passage.
So only option (a) matches the structure of the passage properly.
