Some LR questions have answer choices that say that an argument "assumes without providing justification that (xyz)", and some say that an argument "takes (xyz) for granted". Do these phrases mean the same thing? If not, please explain the difference(s). Thanks! :)

crazy how the word "unexpected" completely makes answer choice C wrong. Every word counts on this test!!!

I almost never fall for the trap answer choices; instead, I choose the ones that J.Y. is like "so what" or "this is so obviously wrong I don't even know where to begin" lol

I missed the distinction between THC and marijuana which is what caused me to miss this question... always read closely and underline key terms!

My advice: if you are confused about an argument like I was with this argument, and you are consuming a lot of time trying to break down the logic of the argument, instead read the answer choices because D jumped out at me intuitively. You don't always have to anticipate an answer choice to be successful. Hope this helped.
I think that, for #26, E is also wrong because it says "people" instead of "philosophical anarchists". I think this may be an important distinction.
