I was stuck between answer choices B and D because they sounded so similar. Both choices hit on that connection between "tales providing insight into the wisdom of a culture" and "tales having a deeper meaning". I ended up choosing D, however, because the term "in some respect" in choice B threw me off... like it wasn't as concrete or absolute as I would have liked out of an answer.
Looking back I see the error of my ways. I correctly interpreted the correct assumption in the proper conditional format ("If a tale provides insight to the wisdom of a culture, then it provides deeper meaning"), but I still chose a similar but incorrect choice that flipped the necessary and sufficient conditions just because the wording sounded more assuring. Darn those trap answer choices! You won't get the best of me on test day!
The reason I chose C was because I figured if it were true that the production of lactase increases with a person's age, wouldn't the need for people to take lactase supplements be diminished and therefore weaken the argument that they should take them?
Just did a blind test of the drill myself to determine if I needed to spend time reviewing this section... and I got none of the answers correct on my first attempt. Safe to say I need to watch this video lol
My name's Francis and I live in the Baltimore, MD area. Would love to meet like minded people to study with! I'm taking the test this November.
Does this stimulus represent a false dichotomy flaw? Mikkeli is arguing that because there are two ways in which he could not have learned/plagiarized Halden's book, then there are no ways for him to have learned/plagiarized about the book at all. Based on this argument, he's assuming those are the only two ways to have learned/plagiarized Halden's book.
