Here's why I picked A over E:
Currie understood that radiation was happening, but she couldn't explain how it was happening, as in what was causing it to happen.
She described radiation (theory) but was not able to explain how it was happening (mechanism/physical process of atoms losing mass).
I was attracted to B originally but talked myself out of it because I was stuck on "ozone-depleting gases" ban. Chlorine being one of those gases. Re-reading the passage (banned gas CFC) and question stem (MSS) made AC B the clear winner. I didn't like any other answer choices but picked E in panic (damned assumptions!).
@Igotthis123 The first line of Para 2 explicitly states "The form of the novel parallels the three-stage structure noted by anthropologists..." That is a give away for an analogy.
I'm not sure if a form filled by a therapist will be acceptable for accommodation on LSAT. From what I've read and heard, a psychiatrist should fill it out for it to be acceptable.
Reminds me of a recent documentary I watched in which the expert witness was biased. The prosecution was warned by a senior attorney of his one-sided views but the prosecution paid no heed. He ended up ruining the case and a nurse was sentenced as a result.
I knew it was A but chose C because "softer" language is "safer" for implied questions.
Isn't E also wrong because it talks about "rural communities"? The stimulus and question are only about one rural community. Wouldn't it be wrong to generalize rural communities from one community?
While corporations are false/fake entities, humans are the REAL ones. However, corporations get a lot better treatment than vast majority of humans (real people).
Whoever came up with this idea is a genius!! These interactive games are extremely helpful. I can easily play these during breaks at work. Thank you 7Sage!!
....and I took the bait and chose A. Because I didn't fully understand the premise. Now it makes total sense why C is correct. Thanks JY!😊
So, A->(B->C)
can be
A->(/B->C) or A->(/C->B)
which can be
A and /B->C or A and /C->B
Very cool.
@ab3600456 In MSS, stimulus supports the AC. Whereas in PSA, AC supports the stimulus (bridges the gap between premise(s) and conclusion).
Not me reading the conclusion wrong, I legit read "maintaining good HEART health". God help me!
I guess PSAr is just not for me. I'm just not getting these no matter how long I take to do these or how much I go back to review lessons on these. I struggle with when and when not to assume or add stuff.
Didn't even read AC E and was struggling as none other ACs made complete sense. Then picked D. FML!
@TaylorSchaffer No, negating D does not break down the argument. Because even if it is easier to convince the people to lower their use of fossil fuels, the reduction goal will still not be met. The goal will only be met with government policies.
With AC D the effort to convince people still stays useless since that will not lead to change in government policy.
Can't believe I got this wrong in both attempts. Forgot to negate and to pay attention to weak and too strong assumptions.
I love how Kevin explains the questions. He is so thorough and takes his time explaining each answer choice and what makes it right or wrong. So helpful!
No shade to JY, but Kevin is quite thorough with RC passages, questions and ACs. He takes his time to explain what makes each AC right or wrong. That really makes a big difference.
