@ChadC yes pls

i was going to choose d but i thought it was already stated in the stimulus. not independent = dependent

but i guess if it's negated then the argument would completely fail

for mss questions, do answer choices tend to be strong in language or not really? i know that's definitely not the only way to go on abt answering the q's but just curious

for q5 why do we not diagram the first sentence as a some ? i had WL--some--ritual. then the rest of the stimulus i wrote on its own as the correct answer is. however, im confused as to why that first sentence isn't included in/chained with the rest
