Q1 - In the bodies of reptiles

I know B is correct, but I am not 100% sure why A or C is not correct. For (A), we know elevated hormonal activity is the only cause of abnormal development of certain body parts , but we do not know whether the telltale belongs to the "certain body parts" . Therefore, (A) seems correct. F...

Re: Q8 - Everyone likes repertory theater

I think (D) strengthen the argument by strengthen the theater managers' reason . In the stimulus, theater managers' reason is conditional. "If plays that reflect audience demand are chosen", then theater managers will be benefit. (D) confirms us that the condition can be fulfilled in a rep...

Re: Q27

I hesitated between (B) and (E) and finally chose (E). Although I could find minor errors in (B), such as the difference between the "usually" in the answer choice and the "may" in the passage, I feel the key point is that Q27 asks about "generalization". Other choices ...

Re: Q15 - Mystery stories often feature

A more general question: if we replace the "often" to "usually", would (A) be correct?

I mean, can we conclude that "often = sometimes", while "usually = most time"?

Q9

I think (D) is better. Compared with the author in Passage B, who has a clear opinion that assets in games should not be taxed (line 45), passage A does not state a clear view. In addition, in Passage A, the author uses "with a shock" in line 18. I think this could be interpreted as either...

Re: Q9

Two comments on (A). (1) Even the research is actually conducted in simulated trials, I think it can still demonstrate something in the actual trial because all the research conducted in a simulated circumstance are intended to explain the actual circumstance. (2) I eliminate (A) because there is no...

Re: Q25 - Student: If a person has an immunity

I eliminated (D) once I saw the word "less", because I think even people are less willing to expand their business, they might still expand them. So (D) has a gap from the "less willing to expand" to the "decline in business expansion". But in the stimulus, there is no ...

Re: Q18 - For several centuries

I see Q18 as a absolute vs. relative question. An extremely difficult way might still be the easiest way, compared with other alternatives. If this were the truth, the argument is unfounded. So a necessary assumption is there is no such possibility . Also, (A) misses the " centuries ago ",...

Re: Q5

I can not see why (C) is not correct. In line 18, it is said that costs of shipping books to wholesalers and to retail stores will also be eliminated. However, publishers will exist because they are going to do the digital publication. So the publishers are no longer shipping books to retailers. Ins...

Should I regard line 12 to line 15 as the topic sentence of the whole passage? The "religious significance" in that sentence is discussed in P2 and "method for maintaining permanent peace" is discussed in P3? If so, how could I realize those things when the first time when I read...

Passage Discussion

I feel this passage is a disaster. Until now, there are still several questions I do not understand. (1) What is the relationship between Steele's hypothesis and Lamarck's theory? I mean, if Steele's hypothesis is correct, does it prove Lamarck's "basic idea" in line 4 is correct? Or even ...

Re: Q2

As for (B), does anyone know about what is the difference between "contagious" and "infectious"? Since in line 31 says it has infectious property.

Q23

What is the difference between (B) and (D)? I think "the idea" refers to logical asymmetry, the application refers to positive evidence has no value, and negative evidence equal to disproof. But actually we can not get the application. But isn't it means, as (B) suggests, the significance ...

Re: Q17 - The conventional view is that

I choose (C) because I think in the stimulus, the craters across the Northern Hemisphere may or may not be formed by asteriods strike. If the craters were formed by, for example, wind forces, the argument does not make any sense at all. So, I think if we could know for sure that the craters were the...

Can anyone tell me why (C) is incorrect?

So, I assume the author must want to advocate something which he b...

Re: Q5

Yeah, I agree the word "most" is a little bit suspicious in (C). We need to think twice before we choose an AC which includes a "most". Also, in line 25, the author says there is a possibility that digital publishing is just "rival" the traditional one. Also, I found th...

Re: Q11

My rationale to eliminate (C) is because of the word "many". When we do LR questions, my understanding is that "many" merely means more than zero. So, even if "many" bad legal decisions are thrown out due to reasons that are not relevant to intellectual authority, we st...
