Question

“Either I keep eating beef and get a heart attack, or I quit and eat yucky vegetables. Since I know I must either eat beef or not, I know I will be stuck either with yucky vegetables or a heart attack.” To escape between the horns of this dilemma, I might argue:

a.I haven’t really considered the alternatives, though. I can always learn to exercise more so that eating beef won’t give me a heart attack.

b. Now that I think of it, the outlook isn’t so bleak. Lots of people manage on vegetables. I’ll start eating more vegetables now so that I can avoid heart disease later.

c. Let’s look at it in a new light. Either I eat just enough beef to make my vegetables taste OK now, or I quit eating beef now, and concentrate on looking for better food. Either way, I end up with a different diet.

d. Of course, the choice shouldn’t be between beef and vegetables. What I really need is to find more variety in foods.

Answer 1

The correct answer is would be option D because it is better for him to stop eating beef for a while and have different diet so that he can avoid heart attack. It makes no sense to eat whatever food you need and do exercise because diet plays major role in your diet. So, choice shouldn't be between beef and vegetables but he should more concentrate on finding variety of food that he can stuck to and doesn't get diverted to beef again because of the yucky taste of food.
