Got to say I am thankful to those lessons in the beginning on premise and conclusions man... gotta slow down when looking at the answer choice but 9/11 is not bad!
@LSATstudyer That's why when I see what I feel is the correct answer, I smash it and move on. Don't want to confuse myself with worse answers that I may accidentally convince myself are better.
I hate this section, mostly due to stupid wording and overthinking. I've resorted to reading all of these out loud so that I can comprehend every word.
Why would B not be seen as at least a sub conclusion, seeing that it is a claim that "it will deteriorate beyond repair" and is supported by the first sentence?
That sentence is support for the first sentence. So the first sentence is the conclusion/sub conclusion. If you are having trouble with this use the WHY test to check if it is support or offers support.
So you had said you thought it was the sub conclusion.
"since if the charter is not restored, it will soon deteriorate beyond repair"
WHY?... ummmm we dont know why this would be. There is no premise or context that gives us any information telling us why we should believe this to be true. If we add the first sentence to this after we ask 'WHY' it does not help.
To fully illustrate this lets look at them together:
'Some argue that the preservation grant we received should be used to restore our original copy of our towns charter'
WHY?
Well, because, 'since if the charter is not restored, it will soon deteriorate beyond its repair.'
So sentence 1 (conclusion) is being supported by sentence 2(premise)
Also, keep in mind this is only one half of the stimulus and is the Other Persons Position which is followed by a premise and conclusion of the Librarian.

FINALLY holy cow
tricky one because there are two arguments so need to distinguish which prem and con are author's and which ones are of the opposing view/arg
10/11. Woo!!! Wish LR was just this.
@mszchloechen640 Same!
I went over the time by like 25 seconds chose C. Almost chose B in BR but glad I stuck with C
i feel like more should be added to understanding choice D
Got the correct answer but did anyone else spend way to much time on E?

This is my least favorite section by far
when you come along some questions that you enjoy doing and not make you want to end your existence
