If we see a passage with "one suggestion" aren't we supposed to try and look for the authors opinion. I thought that was the entire point.
Don't we always have to find the authors opinion? I understand the question was cut off but that was awfully confusing and now I am second guessing this strategy.
JY went through the process not to confuse you, but to teach you how to actively read. Reading a RC passage is a process. He identified the main conclusion in the first paragraph of the passage and then proceeded to explain the main idea of the entire passage. Just my 2 cents.
i didn't like the switch up at first but it did teach me that 1. you need to focus on the question is asking (in this case what is the author's main conclusion and 2. to read the whole stimulus carefully otherwise i really might have picked the wrong answer.
I believe my intuition is pretty strong because when I first read the first paragraph, I thought, "Wait a minute... this argument is only giving one suggestion, there has to be more to this," so when you tricked us, I was relieved that I was correct. LOL. (if that makes any sense, but I get everyones frustration)
#feedback This was not an effective presentation of the lesson. Showing only half the stimulus and half of the answer choices first was more confusing than it was demonstrative of the point that it can be easy to cherry pick good-looking information/answer options.
@YuzhuoCao I think to show how easy it is to identify the conclusion in the first passage and get stuck in the traps. Then, he shows how it is just context to help that part of the lesson really sink in. For many this may be intuitive. For some, this may be mindblowing lol.
Why not have all the answer options visible first? A,B,C,D,E... That way I try it myself first. Then compare with the video tutorial or the written explanation. Now the order is all jumbled
At the top left of the page underneath the lesson, it has the option to show question, which you can click, and it will show a popup of the question. I thought the same thing at first and then did some investigation lol.

Yay! back to videos!

Guysss don't be so hateful! JY is just trying to create different ways of processing questions for us <3
Ummm... trust issues.

That was a horrible example. Why would you cause confusion?

i was suspicious of the first half of that...
hahahaha he is the trickster
-_- #hatedit
bro that "trick" was so lame. This should've been a 4 minute video.

JY is such a troll for not showing the full question first. And for what?? Wasting time??

@Blurred_Lines Thank you for pointing that out. I didn't know that either. Tried it, but not a good feature. Still not convenient. lol
