    I understand it in a practical sense to mean for every question ask these two things:
    1. Descriptively accurate? - whatever the answer choice is claiming that the argument is doing must be accurate
    2. Describing the flaw? - is what the argument is doing in question 1 actually the flaw

    Some choices will be descriptively accurate but will fail question number 2 and that will not be the flaw.

    There is a list of 19 commonly used flaws somewhere in the curriculum that is helpful to reference for these question types as well. Hope this helps!
