Diagram: one man in his time is required to play many parts

mzthaidumplingmzthaidumpling Alum Member

I am studying from a LR LSAT book and it has it diagrammed as
Man->many parts.

I thought “is required” is a group 2, so shouldn’t man be the necessary clause like many parts->man?

    What do you think is the requirement here?

    @16guitar I thought it was “one man”. But now I see it’s “to play many parts”. Oh I get it, now. Thanks. I misinterpreted what it was saying.

    @mzthaidumpling I don't blame you, I think this a very tricky example and also a reminder that you can't always apply the rules automatically.

    "One man in his time is required to play many parts"
    "Using the Force is required to be a Jedi"

    Both sentences appear to have same structure, but the part that is required is different however.
