T1W1 TS Q36 – Selective High School

It assumes that reusable covers will protect textbooks from all types of damage. It implies that textbook damage is directly related to the lack of reusable covers. It overlooks the possibility that some reusable covers might not fit all textbooks. It ignores the fact that textbooks can also be damaged by wear and tear over time.
