Question 8 - Language: Paragraphs Practice Test for the TABE Test

Which sentence would best replace the bold sentence in the attached passage?

“When thinking about farming and gardening, the food production of the two differs in scale and intent. Farming occurs on a larger scale, and with the production of saleable goods as a major motivation. Gardening is done on a smaller scale, primarily for pleasure and to produce goods for the gardener’s own family or community. There is some overlap between the terms, particularly in that some moderate-sized vegetable growing concerns can fit in either category.”

No change is needed.
“With respect to its food producing purpose, gardening is distinguished from farming chiefly by scale and intent.”
“Food producing purposes being the topic, scale and intent are what differentiate between gardening and farming.”
“Scale and intent being what chiefly distinguish the two, gardening and farming have different food producing purposes.”
