Which is the right answer ?

Hi every one ...

um ..i'm an english student and i have a subject called : international tests ..

it is about kinds of test and thier strateges ,,however, tody i have been tested and the following question confused me .. so i wish i see your answers about it ..

here it is :

Why should you get ride of double negatives ?

a) less writing to read

b) they don't belong in the sentence

c) should make the statement true

d) all of they above

.....

i choosed (c) because i asked my classmate about the teacher's answer and she said ( c) is the answer ..

but, after the test i found that the teacher's answer was (b) ..

even though i still stuck with my answer (c )

so, what do you think ..?!

I think you should check your typing. If the test question was really written that carelessly, a double negative or two should be of little concern to either you or your teacher.
