The demand for Korean horror films in America will fall considerably since American horror films are back in demand there, impacting the overall demand for Korean films. However, the American viewers’ demand for Korean films will increase again. Two years back when the American romance film genre went through a revival in popularity in America, the demand for Korean romantic films in America went down; however, the demand for Korean film has returned to its previous level since then.


Which of the following, if true, best supports the assertion that the demand for Korean films may not return to its previous level?

A) In the past two years some very successful American Horror films were actually based on successful Korean Horror films.

B) The Korean horror films were significantly responsible for contributing to the revival in demand for Korean films after it dropped two years back.

C) Various surveys show that the movie business in America is almost at its peak and is likely to go down after it booms in the next one year.

D) The demand for Korean romantic films has not decreased in the last two years.

E) American sci-fi films have always been more popular in America than Korean or America horror films have been.

Consumer advocate: There is no doubt that the government is responsible for the increased cost of gasoline, because the government’s policies have significantly increased consumer demand for fuel, and as a result of increasing demand, the price of gasoline has risen steadily.

Which one of the following is an assumption required by the consumer advocate’s argument?


(A) The government can bear responsibility for that which it indirectly causes.

(B) The government is responsible for some unforeseen consequences of its policies.

(C) Consumer demand for gasoline cannot increase without causing gasoline prices to increase.

(D) The government has an obligation to ensure that demand for fuel does not increase excessively.

(E) If the government pursues policies that do not increase the demand for fuel, gasoline prices tend to remain stable

French cuisine is highly regarded all over the world. Yet in Paris there are more American restaurants selling burgers and fries (which many people now class as junk food) than there are in any other European capital city. Obviously the French are very fond of junk food, and are not too proud to eat it.
Which of the following, if true, would most weaken the author’s contention?
A) There are also a larger number of Lebanese restaurants in Paris than there are in other European capital cities.
B) French Cordon Bleu cuisine is very expensive.
C) The number of French tourists eating in New York burger restaurants is very low.
D) Junk food is actually has high nutritional value when eaten in moderation.
E) There are an unusually large number of American tourists in Paris who eat at burger joints.

Studies in restaurants show that the tips left by customers who pay their bill in cash tend to be larger when the bill is presented on a tray that bears a credit-card logo. Consumer psychologists hypothesize that simply seeing a credit-card logo makes many credit-card holders willing to spend more because it reminds them that their spending power exceeds the cash they have immediately available.

Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the psychologists’ interpretation of the studies?

(A)
The effect noted in the studies is not limited to patrons who have credit cards.

(B)
Patrons who are under financial pressure from their credit-card obligations tend to tip less when presented with a restaurant bill on a tray with a credit-card logo than when the tray has no logo.

(C)
In virtually all of the cases in the studies, the patrons who paid bills in cash did not possess credit cards.

(D)
In general, restaurant patrons who pay their bills in cash leave larger tips than do those who pay by credit card.

(E)
The percentage of restaurant bills paid with a given brand of credit card increases when that credit card’s logo is displayed on the tray with which the bill is presented.

It is much like a paradox question. Moto company advertises in the children’s magazine, but children won’t purchase bicycle. So, how you would argue that advertisement will still be beneficial for Moto company? Maybe, Moto company is doing the advertisement in order to get benefits in next product launch for children segment? (D) describes the same

When the government announced a student loan program for undergraduates, it received an enthusiastic response from the both the student and their parent communities. The government claimed that a student loan would allow best choice of college without worrying about exorbitant fee and the student, upon landing a job or after a grace period of 1 year whichever is earlier, may start paying back. The opposition, however, is skeptical that the program will be beneficial for the career of a student, even when he is now better placed to choose a college of his liking and thus has better prospects of landing a job.

Which of the following, if true, best supports the contention of the opposition?

A. Easy availability of loans in undergraduate programs has unnecessarily caused even well-off students to avail loans.
B. Students tend to rush into the very first job they happen to get to pay off their debt.
C. Students erroneously assume that the economic situation when they subscribed to a loan would be the same when they enter the job market.
D. Students, once indebted and in a job, are least motivated to up skill in a job market that remains as competitive as ever.
E. Majority of students who took loans started their families late as they focused on helming higher roles and responsibilities.­

Here’s my view
The opposition is saying that the program won’t be beneficial for the "career of a student".
In choice B, even if the student at first doesn’t get the best job, he might still get a better job after a while.
But if choice D is true then not being able to learn any new skills in a competitive market might be harmful for the student’s career.

I have a quick question. How accurate is ChatGPT’s explanation for GMAT CR?

I tried seeking an explanation for choosing Option D over Option B for this CR as I felt Option B should be the answer and ChatGPT also favored Option B over Option D.
