I don't really understand the argument, which is why I am having a tough time deciding between D and E. Can someone break the argument down and discuss those two answer choices?

(E) General opportunities to learn are not typical of the early years of formal education.
Negated: General opportunities to learn are typical of the early years of formal education.
And…so what? How does that hurt the argument? We need something that talks about the directed learning.
For this NA question (and almost every other NA question) I resort to the negation test. Answer choice (D) says: The type of directed learning in question is not a necessary part of the process of growing and adapting to the world.
The stimulus says: they (the children) learn an enormous amount simply through growing and adapting to the world.
So if we take (D) and negate it we get: The type of directed learning in question is a necessary part of the process of growing and adapting to the world.
Well if the directed learning type was necessary than we could not conclude (as the stim does): Therefore, this type of directed learning is unlikely to improve a child’s preschool education.
To say that, it must be the case that (D) is true.
