The conclusion here is that "crying must have the effect of reducing emotional stress".
The first time I read the stimulus I thought the flaw/gap here was; we are not sure that crying itself decreases stress, maybe the hormones causes the ...

Hello!
I was confused between (B) and (C).
I thought the basic structure of argument in passage A is that since something has a bad assumption, so it doesn't work and thus must not be used.
I understand (C) is a good answer choice, ...
I was not sure between A and E.
I think both suggest it does not serve the purpose,
one shows so by denying the necessity of its existence and one by showing ppl would do anyway if they know how to do so.
Why is ...
I got this question right first but after BR when I just solved it with my logical intuition, but I got wrong since I made some logical diagram for the question.
Please clarify whether I had any error.
Hi fellow 7Sagers, while commenting on the September Discussion, I would be thankful if someone can explain to me why answer choice C is wrong and E is right. It would be great if you could explain to me what exactly CPUE mean in the context of the ...
I can't for the life of me figure out why (A) is better and (E), any help?

Hi guys, I have a question about and/or in this Q. Example the first sentence is A gift is not generous, unless benefits recipient & is worth more than expected
So when I apply the unless translation do I change the AND to an OR no ...
For this particular problem, I wasn't able to clearly articulate why answer choice C was incorrect. I interpreted the conclusion to be a causal one, specifically one that claims that the author's political party is responsible for the decrease in ...
For this question, I was able to see that the flaw was a equivocation between a substantial budget and an adequate one. Answer choice E seemed to reflect that train of thought, but I didn't find the wording to be clear. In particular, the answer choice ...
Ok so I'm doing my blind review, and when I initially did the test I chose the correct answer even though I wasn't happy with it because it seemed more like a sufficient assumption to me. I don't have the ultimate package so I don't have the explanation ...
I got this question correct but really don't know why. I look at the answers and they just look like gibberish. I try to break the words down and make the answer sound similar, but I still have no clue what most those answers are saying. I went through the ...
So I'm still struggling to identify exactly when certain arguments could be strengthened or weakened by the total number of samples (or any sort of number play for that matter) and when they cannot be. I remember seeing a few ...
So the stimulus in #20 reads,
"If one does not criticize a form of behavior in oneself or vow to stop it, then one should not criticize that form of behavior in another."
Why is (E) wrong, can't seem to wrap my head around it. It seems to be the contrapositive of the last sentence.

I have problems for this question.
The question stem mentions the preference in Passage A:
Preference for coherence connecting variety, not too simple (pure tone) = not interesting; not too complex = bad
...
I got it right. But I don't know why J.Y said we can can make "some" statement by contrapositive. The relationship is about "all" statement.

Any idea?
Please explain to me how in the world can D be the correct answer. The colloquial word 'buff' is the only thing in its favor. How could an article containing words such as apoptosis, nuclei, atrophy be meant for a general audience? I found all answers ...
