I’m very happy I got this question right but I was well over the suggested timing it should have taken to answer this question. I’m not discouraged about the time I know I have to work on this skill before I can speed up.

I 100% understood question 3 but it was very difficult to word this comparison using the 3 step process. I had the same issue with number 4 but my interpretation of this comparison aligned more with the second comparison.

I am now so confused this is not clicking for me at all rn

Number 4 I got wrong. I thought the Kernal was reflects the views of scientists. I wasn’t thinking of fiction as the subject-noun at all.

2/3 still getting stumped by subsidiary conclusions

@Samantha Finjap I struggled with this as well. I was also confused with subsidiary conclusion but I’m trying to remember if a claim contains a conclusion but also gives support to another conclusion it is subsidiary or second to the main conclusion it supports.

1. Sarah was paid. People who work get paid.

2. Lindsay wants to buy a car. In order to buy a car you must show paystubs. People also buy cars by paying in full. Lindsay bought a new car and did not show her paystubs. Therefore, Lindsay paid for her car in full.

3. The dog is not home, yet the door is open and the leash is on the table. The kids came in from playing outside. No one else has come in or out of the house. My hypothesis is that the dog ran out when the kids came in and forgot to close the door behind them.

I’m not super confident with my examples but any tips or comments to help?
