T3W5 TS Q26 – Selective High School

At the end of the school year, every student who took part in the school’s sports day received a participation ribbon. Some students argued that participation should still be recognised, but students who performed exceptionally well should receive an additional, more prestigious award.

Which one of the following illustrates the same idea used in the above argument?

The teacher gave a small prize to every student who attended class for a week, regardless of their behaviour or effort. After an art competition, only the students who produced the best artwork received any form of recognition. During a spelling bee, every participant received a certificate, while the top three spellers also received special trophies. Every student received the same sticker at the end of the day, regardless of how actively they participated.

Are you sure you want to leave?
