Assumption Questions

Does anyone have a trick for answering assumption questions? They are killing me! No matter how many times I re-watch the lessons; I still cannot understand them. Please help!!!

The assumption links the premise to the conclusion. Without the link, the argument makes no sense.

Random example. If the argument says that people go broke because they gamble, the link will have to give at least one example of someone going broke gambling. If no one goes broke gambling, the argument makes no sense. Slow down and think about the arguments.

Howdy, Stranger!
