Question

in \water flowing from toilet to tap may be hard to swallow,\ what reasons does schwartz give to support his claim? select two options.
water recycling is common for uses like irrigation; purple pipes in many california towns deliver water to golf courses, zoos and farms.
enticing people to drink recycled water, however, requires getting past what experts call the yuck factor.
in november, the san diego city council voted for a $2.9 billion pure water program to provide a third of the citys daily needs by 2035.
the processes... that clean the water include microfiltration that strains out anything larger than 0.2 microns, removing almost all suspended solids, bacteria and protozoa.
people tend to judge risk emotionally, he said, and a phrase like toilet to tap can undercut earnest explanations.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  • The article's claim is about the difficulty of getting people to accept recycled water for drinking. The "yuck" factor (Option 2) and people's emotional judgment of risk (Option 5) directly relate to why it's hard for people to swallow (accept) water from toilet - to - tap.
  • Option 1 is about water recycling for non - drinking uses, Option 3 is about a water program's funding, and Option 4 is about water treatment processes. These do not directly support the claim about people's reluctance to drink recycled water.

Answer:

B. "Enticing people to drink recycled water, however, requires getting past what experts call the 'yuck' factor."
E. "People tend to judge risk emotionally, he said, and a phrase like 'toilet to tap' can undercut earnest explanations."
