Real questions that test this

The writer directly or indirectly made three of the following statements. Indicate the one he didn't make.

1)Many of the world's present population of infants, children and adolescents will not have the health, the education, the skills, the socio-cultural attitudes essential for the responsibilities of development.
2)A child's most critical years with regards to physical, intellectual, social and emotional development are those before he reaches five years of age.
3)Development will be handicapped as long as women remain second-class citizens.
4)In the advanced countries of the world, women are regarded as first-class citizens, but in developing countries they are third-rate citizens.✓ Correct

Option 4 is the correct answer because passages about development and women generally do not make extreme, unsupported claims like dividing women into first-class in advanced countries and third-rate in developing ones; the others are standard sociological assertions usually found in such texts.
