Question 1:
The neighborhood block association has received many complaints about people knocking on doors and soliciting money for an unknown charity organization even though door-to-door solicitation is prohibited by local laws. Three residents have provided descriptions of individuals who have come to their door asking for money. Solicitor #1 is a white male, 20–25 years old, 5'9, 145 pounds, with very short brown hair. He was wearing a dark blue suit and carrying a brown leather briefcase. Solicitor #2 is a white male, 25–30 years old, 6'2, 200 pounds, with a shaved-head. He was wearing a red T-shirt and jeans. Solicitor #3 is a white male, approximately 23 years old, 5'10, slight build, with short brown hair. He was wearing a blue suit. Three days after the block association meeting, a resident noticed a man knocking on doors in the neighborhood and phoned the police to report the illegal activity. This solicitor was described as follows: Solicitor #4 is a white male, 22 years old, 140 pounds, about 5'10, with short brown hair. He was carrying a briefcase and wearing a dark suit. Based on this description, which of the three solicitations was also likely carried out by Solicitor #4?
A. #1, #2, and #3
B. #1, but not #2 and #3
C. #1 and #3, but not #2
Feedback The solicitor described as #2 has a shaved head and is much taller and heavier than the solicitors described as #1 and #3. Therefore, choices a and d, which include #2, can be ruled out. Solicitors #1, #3, and #4 have such similar descriptions that the correct answer is clearly choice c.
D. #1 and #2, but not #3
