The second time AC E explanation says AC C, i believe it means to say AC E instead NOT AC C

"Similar to (C), this sounds like it’s restating our first premise (again, if it were, that would also be incorrect). (C) is different than the premise because it includes all people, rather than just artists, and limits great artwork to “only a few.”"

@mvivot Answer choice E says the argument took for granted that "the number of traffic fatalities the year before the new speed limit was introduced was not abnormally high." What if that wasn't true? In a world where fatalities the year before were abnormally high compared to other years, the decrease in fatalities might simply represent a return to normal levels (that happens to coincide with the reduced highway speed limit). Without this assumption, the conclusion becomes less likely to be true. Therefore, the argument’s failure to consider E represents a flaw in its reasoning.

@mvivot nvm found the answer in another explanation (by @MridulaDebnath ) that helped make it click for me:

@nikki trying to understand your negatio. tip. How does the negation of E make the argument fall apart? If the # of TF's two years ago was abnormally high...wouldnt that strengthen the argument but weaken the criticism that could be given?

@mvivot also personal opinions through actual statements or adjectives the author uses to cleverly indicate thier feelings. And i color coordinate depending on what im highlighting

AC B explanation says smell sensations, maybe y'all meant small sensations?

Thinking about it like this helped me:

If Swift had 1-2 airplanes, then solely mechanical problems can be attributed as the cause (which is what we don't want). Thus we need more than 1-2 airplanes to then have other reasons for the cancellations.

The word "tend" is what throws me off for D. The author doesn't mention that historians tend to be advocates/propagandists. Is the solution to ignore that and select D because its simply a better fit as an answer? Or is there an implied "tendency" here that im missing?

so i got 12/14 and im generally doing well on RC Drills and questions. My only problem seems to be time. It seems to be when I read the passage i go over by 2-3 mins. Maybe ill need to highlight less and focus on processing the info in my head more.

@vivianacostante ive been highlighting the start of povs/new ideas and main points/impt points in arguements. Makes it easier to skim.

I choose E, aligning "distribute guilt" as attention to morality and responsibility. I understand how D is correct but dont understand how my connection fails? Did i approach this from too high up?

bem legal

@MichaelWright thank you

@MichaelWright gotcha, got lucky with eliminating A then on this one haha

is it wrong to elimnate A off rip because the conclusion has "if not then not" statement which is different from stimulus which has a "if not then it is" statement?
