Which one of the following best describes the passage?

  • A.It tells us about the usefulness of corduroy
  • B.It tells us about the virtues of corduroy
  • C.It persuades us to buy corduroy
  • D.It makes us understand the everlasting appeal of corduroy to the young

Answer: B

Correct answer: It tells us about the virtues of corduroy

The passage lists what corduroy offers - tenacity, texture, warmth, its association with good breeding, the comfort of cotton and the finish of velvet - without ever telling the reader to buy any. It is description rather than persuasion, and it covers far more than usefulness alone.
