I was thrown off by the question asking "certain collectors" when that phrase is never mentioned in the passage. Is it normal for the question stem to have different language from the passage? How are we supposed to decipher and be able to pick the right answer if the language doesn't match.

    Hi Brianna, We do not need to focus on the exact wording that was used, but rather on what the words mean. The question asks us about what certain collectors claim. Are there any collectors mentioned in the passage? Do those collectors make a claim? If we look at the second sentence, we see that some collectors are in fact claiming something.
