Regional customs means exactly that, regional practices. Domestic experiences can differ by region based on their customs.

As for the "local colour" I believe it means the description of the local phenomenons, figuratively "colouring" the regional events, practices and customs, with descriptive words.

Within the parameters of the stimulus, I was thinking there could be a case where most rodents come from 1 specific species. In this instance Option B would be false.

I was hesitant to choose B. Wouldn't not having a sizable quantity of food be a motivation to keep other chimps from the food?

I thought Option E was broad but rather fitting. It reflects the stimulus' assumption that only organic factors affect mental illness, and there are no other confounding factors. To me Option C is correct just because it's a more specific attack.

For Q24 Option C, the passage starts out with saying that Computers are used as legal research systems, so using AI (which is a type of computer) for that purpose is a safe assumption when it's original advanced function is not working well currently.

For E how do we know what "claim" means? Does it always mean a premise, or could it be a conclusion too?

I still see the cohesiveness part for Option E, but "continuity of society" is more of a stretch. I guess the text mentions religious belief and child-rearing manual tricks us to associate it with continuing society. In any case, the whole paragraph serves as an explanation to what Jewett's novels are not, so the traits of the conventional domestic fiction serves as a contrast to Jewett's work.

I know we eliminated Q15 Option E while reading passage A, but is this option wrong for passage B, because the Ban Chiang is a mix of hunter-gatherer and cultivator economy, rather than strictly pre-agricultural?

For Q15 Option E, I was under the impression the text gave enough information to judge the extent, in the last paragraph, using words like "large amounts of" and "several species with high cariogenic potential (implying high carb)"

The last sentence misled me to choose Option D: "More problems are created than solved when agriculture is the domain of the industrialist, not of the farmer. "

Is the passage implying that the complementary concept is not a general method in physics? #13 option E was confusing for me because of that

me too. They were definitely ambiguous with their meaning

I was thinking that since agricultural advances induces lack of biodiversity, this will be the cause of food shortages (Option C), thus being part of Malthus' arguments. We were never told the whole set of arguments so I was assuming.

That's a good point. After watching the video, I realized that the first sentence is more of an assumption or context. The passage goes on to explain the details of the "one method", but the purpose of the explanation is not to support/prove that it is indeed one of the methods.

This was not explained the way I was thinking, maybe since it's an old video. Go back to the Core Curriculum and refer to this rule:

A ←s→ B => C, A ←s→ C (true)

However, the following rule is not correct, and the reason why Option D is incorrect:

A => B ←s→ C, A ←s→ C

That's what makes this question hard: none of the options refer to you, but rather the phenomenon/practice in general.

I bombed all the questions on another hard passage once. I've come to realize in RC you just gotta zoom past the usual 2 easy passages ASAP, and that leaves time to read, re-read and maybe read again the hard passage. I was stressed about this one initially, but I realized I have enough time to read a third time, which was probably why I got half the questions wrong, instead of all of them lol.

Your eyes are a mirror

Those are good points. As a counter-argument, if we wanna be stringent, there could be a difference between exchanging game items and game currency. The passage talks about exchanging game items for game currency, not exchanging one game currency for another game currency like option E states. As for option A, I don't believe the passage ever mentioned using virtual game money to buy real world items. "Real world trade in virtual items" refers to trading virtual game items in the real world, whether in exchange for another virtual item, virtual currency or real currency, but not for gaining real world items. Intellectual property rights was explicitly stated in the passage, so I guess it's the most correct.

I chose D only because I vaguely remember something about intellectual property rights earlier in the passage. I can't say for sure why the others are wrong, but since D was explicitly stated, it seems the most correct. A lot of people chose A, but I feel the passage is talking about the reverse of that: selling virtual items for real currency.

I agree. This question relies on the assumption that there are definitive categories for books. As an example, sure adults can enjoy Dino Nuggets too, but they are still conventionally categorized as kids food.

I also related to sunspot activities when determining the right answer. Interestingly, in the LSAC lawhub explanation, it only stated option B being correct, because it does not specify which species are affected.

I don't remember this from the syllabus. Definitely should take note.

Me too, I thought that this was one of the assumptions the LSAT makes you infer.

Definitely need to review the difference
