Answer:

<u>It means that the test would have high reliability and not so for the validity.</u>

kaheart [24]
I believe the answer is: <span>Telling and giving understanding are two different things.

Mink is valuable, coon is not, even though both are fur.
Janie implies that telling would be taken by people simply as passing sentence and would most likely forget it in a short period of time.
