Re: Q25 - Monica: The sculpture commissioned

According to my understanding, Hector is not saying the the public opinion should be acted on because it is the public's opinion, but because the public feels can reflect what will benefit the public. The assumption is on that "what the public feels is to its benefit" is "a benefit to...

Re: Q25 - Credit card companies justify charging

The term "invoke" here has a similar meaning as "quote" and "use", so the question is asking for an argument that can be supported by the same principle supported the credit card company's argument. So first we need to find the principle, which is "those who expose...

Re: Q11 - North American Prairie

I think you totally get it, that E is just a reiteration of the main conclusion, and the question exactly is asking for the main conclusion. As for B, I also didn't exclude it at the first time. However, if we rethink the idea of B, we can find the B has a purpose of "cost-effective", howe...

Re: Q14

I think the main phrases here are "analogous concept" and "crucial distinction", which mains though the "doctrine of precedent" is similar to the case in the precedent paragraph, but the "doctrine of precedent" is different from the former one because the inte...

Re: Q20 - Productivity is average output

Hi guys, Do you think answer choice A would be correct if we substituted "High productivity" wherever it says "high-tech equipment" Here's how I see it playing out: Premise: HP -----> AT But if instead, we assume that AT is sufficient, rather than necessary: AT ----> HP Th...

Re: Q16 - In countries where government officials

Here I am using a negation strategy: civil disorder generally occur in countries that have either free elections or a free press. This may looks weird, but it doesn't counter the statement. Yes, less free countries have greater tendency of disorder than free countries, but it can be true that both h...

Re: Q16 - In countries where government officials

premise 1: no free elections & no free press------> controlled by policies they had no role in creating (no participation in their formulation) premise 2: do not understand the purpose of restriction------> greater tendency of civil disorder conclusion: such countries (no free elections &a...

Re: Q14 - Joseph: My encyclopedia says

Hi, I would like to share my view of this question here. It: refers to Laura's argument your claim: Joseph's claim, which is "Fermat was lying or mistaken" by combining these two, it refers to "since Fermat's theorem is provable, 'Fermat was lying or mistaken' is wrong". C is rig...

Re: Q8

For D, there is an explicit sentence providing the answer in paragraph 2, "the notion of jurisprudence as a system of norms or principles deemphasized history in favor of the coherence of a system ". That is, the current theory sacrifices the history to get the coherence, so D is actually ...

Re: Q26 - Smoking in bed has long

I think a tricky point here is that causing fire is different from causing deaths, so there is a possibility that smoke-in-bed causes the majority of the home fires, but doesn't cause deaths at all. So, A can solve the discrepancy by saying that: yes, smoking causes a lot of fires, but since it coul...

Re: Q9 - Complaints that milk bottlers

Hi, I think a great way to prove D is correct is by assuming contradictions. Assume the Milk bottlers respond to a decrease in raw-milk prices by proportionately lowering the price of the milk, then if raw milk price decreases from 20 to 10 , which is 50%, the bottlers' milk should decrease from 40 ...

Re: Q20

It would be useful to know that the communism is against the capitalism, however, I think the answer also lies in the passage. It asks for something Third Period (early one) has and Popular Front (later one) doesn't have. So we first look it is paragraph 3, which talked about the Third Period, in wh...

Re: Q12 - In many languages other than

I also missed the question, but later I found that even the question is one of the trickiest questions I've met, its logic is not hard. What the question stem seems to specify is " English ", but English is actually not special , and could be replaces by any language, and what we need to f...
