Now letâs come to choice B: Look at lines 3 to 5 of the passage: Play therapy, on the other hand, recognizes that imaginative play is the mode of expression most comfortable and natural to children and focuses on helping them express their emotions. This summarizes the objective (in other words, goal) of play therapy. Similarly, the procedures associated with play therapy are indicated in the second paragraph â equipment, role of therapist etc.
Takeaways:
1. Just because something is mentioned in the first paragraph does not mean that it is necessarily a core theme of the passage. i.e. The core theme is usually mentioned in the first paragraph, but not necessarily vice versa.
2. Donât look for words given exactly in the passage (âgoalsâ, âproceduresâ) â instead, see if the passage satisfies the factors mentioned in the answer choices.

Adults are mentioned just once in the passage (lines 2-3), that too, in passing. The primary purpose is most certainly not to guide adults or prove that they do not understand children â the focus of the passage is on play therapy itself. The mention of adults is made only to form the introduction to this topic. This is why options A and E are both incorrect.
Can some one tell why is option E incorrect?
I was going with A or E but E looks more relevant here to me.Because the purpose of the mentioned example is to guide the adults to know about problem of the child.
b seems wrong as he tells about goals and procedure,whereas no goals are mentioned in the passage.
