Summarize Argument
People’s responses to words are impacted not only by meaning, but also by how they sound. We know this because experiments demonstrated that people have positive and negative reactions to nonsense words.
Identify Argument Part
This is the evidence that supports the conclusion. This study allows the author to claim that responses to words are not just meaning dependent (because nonsense words have no meaning) but also based on how those words sound.
A
It is a premise offered in support of the conclusion that people have either a positive or a negative response to any word.
This is not an accurate representation of the conclusion. The conclusion says the response is impacted by sound, not that people will have these responses to any given word.
B
It is a conclusion for which the only support provided is the claim that people’s responses to words are conditioned both by what the words mean and by how they sound.
It is a premise. It provides evidence for the claim in this answer choice, which is the real conclusion.
C
It is a generalization partially supported by the claim that meaningful words can trigger positive or negative responses in people.
This is evidence, not a supported generalization. It is not supported by the first claim, which is a separate observation.
D
It is a premise offered in support of the conclusion that people’s responses to words are engendered not only by what the words mean, but also by how they sound.
This is evidence that supports the conclusion explaining the multiple ways people’s responses to words are conditioned.
E
It is a conclusion supported by the claim that people’s responses under experimental conditions are essentially different from their responses in ordinary situations.
It is a premise. The claim in this answer choice is not contained in the stimulus.
