The proposal to forbid the use of indoor furniture on front porches has divided the town along _____ lines: the affluent feel the old couches are eyesores, while those who cannot afford new outdoor furniture are _____ about what they feel is an attempt to restrict their lifestyle.
A. political . . nonplussed
B. aesthetic . . dismayed
C. class . . pleased
D. racial . . angry
E. socioeconomic . . incensed
Correct Answer: E
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
Because the second half of the sentence contrasts "the affluent" with "those who cannot afford new outdoor furniture," we can see that the first blank should be filled with a word referring to class or economic differences. This narrows thepossibilities to Choices C and E. Choice C doesn’t work because an attempt to restrict someone’s lifestyle wouldn’t logically make them feel "pleased."
