Self-study
Hi everyone!
On Thursday, August 25th, at 9:00 PM ET, we'll be hosting a webinar about "Training for Reading Comprehension."
For this webinar, we'll be going over the different muscles that Reading Comprehension is testing and the ways to train each one. Yes, RC tests "reading ability." But what does that mean exactly?
We'll go over different ways to make RC studying more varied, effective and engaging. If you're someone who worries that RC isn't learnable or is getting tired of just doing timed RC sections, this webinar will arm you with a new way of thinking about the section and about RC studying.

Hi,
I'm a tutor here at 7Sage! Great question. You're most definitely right. The author's chain of reasoning falls apart if it's not actually unethical to encourage people to engage in behavior that could damage the integrity of their relationships with their friends.
Another way to think of this question (what JY would call a pseudo-sufficient assumption question) is just as a strengthen question. "Helps to justify" is something of a different way of saying that the question wants you to think of how to"strengthen" an argument. You can strengthen an argument by adding to it something that must be true for the argument to work. Sure, that's a pretty heavy-handed strengthening. But it's possible (and indeed true here) that the right answer choice is actually just a necessary assumption.
The only thing I'd especially encouarge you to be wary of is that something can be a necessary assumption for an arugment to work but still not be sufficient for the argument to work well.
Hope this is helpful! Great observation.
Jacob
