And now, I will answer my previous #feedback. We do not stop reading and go straight to answers once we find a conclusion because what you might have read is a sub-conclusion, not the main conclusion.
Is it wrong to stop reading once you find the conclusion? I find it easy to just go straight to the answers once I find the conclusion to avoid the rest of the argument confuse me with extra information.
Thank you for thinking of us. Studying and dealing with the trauma is not easy.
Great! After printing each individually. I should read the feedback more often
I got a little bored with the reading and something told me to read the feedback and I am not disappointed LOL, I am too old to LOL but this deserve it. I personally do not use this kind of language but I do not care for those who use it. The LSAT is not a joke and focusing on their use of words is the least of my worries. I would say waste of space because they will probably read it and skip it. If it was a real problem, they would probably address your problem.
With that said, we need something else with all the reading. If we are not doing videos, add something else.
I hope this makes sense. The subject modifier answers the question who? The verb modifier answers how? and the object modifier answers to which?
In his writings, William Shakespeare captured the spirit of the Elizabethan era through his dramas and poems.
Subject - noun: William Shakespeare
Predicate: captured the spirit
Verb modifier: (how did he capture the spirit?) in his writings + through his dramas and poems.
Object modifier (which spirit?): of the Elizabethan era
Question #2
Why is it a premise and not context? We were taught that someone's else information is taken as background information. Are we using the context as premise?
This was my answer
Concession: Although gardening has a reputation as a time-consuming and difficult hobby,
Context: Studies have shown that regular involvement in gardening can decrease symptoms of anxiety and depression.
Author's point: it enhances an individual's emotional well-being.
Context refers to the background information. Premise is the information that supports your conclusion. Context does not offer support.
Example:
Studies show that tigers are some of the strongest and fastest predators. They can be aggressive and unfit to keep at home. For this reason, tigers are not suitable to keep as pets.
Context: Studies show that tigers are some of the strongest and fastest predators. (note how this sentence only describes tigers. It does not mention anything about the characteristics of a pet.)
Premise: They can be aggressive and unfit to keep at home. (Based on what I am told in the context, I believe the characteristics of tigers are aggressive and unfit. This will be my support as to why tigers are not suitable to keep as pets)
Conclusion: For this reason, tigers are not suitable to keep as pets.
It's a simple example but I hope it helps.
When do we call it a Sub conclusion or a Premise? Question #5 was wrong because I called it a sub conclusion.
I would like to but don’t have a Snapchat account
I registered to run a marathon. I ran every day at least for an hour. It is suggested to increase the time per weekly run. My training plan started 6 months before race day. However, I did not cross the finish line.
