I see why E is correct, but I think the explanation for why A is wrong is unhelpful. If there are a bunch of people who work for 40 years but would evade being caught up in the 65+ mandatory retirement proposal, doesn't that completely destroy the premise in the 2nd to last sentence?

Yes, the RC curriculum underwent an overhaul

I appreciate the sneaky psychological trick of this new curriculum whereby the reader is primed for the RC section via long theoretical passages that are, in themselves, about the RC section

The principle contains two rules. The first, as you say, is (justified) → (typically used). The second is (believe evidence) → (justified). As you can see, (justified) is the sufficient condition in the first rule and the necessary condition in the second rule. You can chain these together if you'd like

"You Try - Intentionally Harming a Child?" I'd rather not, honestly.

It is an assumption, but the question depends on the tester realizing that it is a pretty reasonable assumption, especially in the context of the other answer choices (keep in mind that for MSS questions, the correct answer may not be the ideal answer)

For 2.1, the translations "If it is a flower in the garden, then it does not bloom in winter," and "If it blooms in winter, then it is not a flower in the garden" feel more apt, no?

For question 1.2, why is the contrapositive "If it is this fishing lake, then no swimming is allowed," instead of something like, "If it is allowed in the fishing lake, it is not swimming?"

#feedback Question 7.4's given answer for the contrapositive is incorrect because it neglects the presence of the word "likely" in the original excerpt.
