Critical Reading Blue book page 546 #24

<p>This question puzzled me, and I wasn’t between C and D</p>

<ol>
<li>Which of the following statements about the effect of the First World War is supported by both passages?
a) officers resented government’s complacency.
b) Women gained independence in postwar Britain.
C) Soldiers felt isolated from parts of civilian society
D) Women failed in their attempts to describe the atrocities of war.
E) War proved an undesirable way to resolve the European Conflict.</li>
</ol>

<p>I mean in question 23 the answer was that niether works of literature focused on the realities of battlefield so why is the answer for question 24 not the atrocities of war?</p>

<p>Women never tried to describe the atrocities of the war. If you never try, you can’t fail.</p>

<p>Err meant “Writers failed in their attempt” but yeah the said writers were women in passage 2… so ok.</p>
