第二个是assumption题型，assumption的定义就是，如果没有它，argument就不成立 to monitorzhe As what you definited, the assumption type recongnized when the argument cannot be concluded if the element asked is absent or untrue. i am for it. And in this definition, we could convert it to: if the argument is valid, then the assumption is true. that means we take everything in the argument(stimulus) as true, while the answer choices are pending. The 2nd question stem i posted means if the answer choice we select is true, the conclusion above(in the stimulus) is valid. So we take all the answer choices true, and the conclusion is pending. Actually, I agree with the answers of lawyerme's. the second question stem belongs to a type called Justify the conclusion which means to the most extent (100%) STRENGTHEN the argument(conclusion). And the strengthening is so powerful that the conclusion could be properly drawn. Back to the 1st stem, same thing almost. But the only difference is between the words "help" and "allow". only a tiny fraction of strengthening could be help, a hundred percent of strengthening also helps. so this question stem asked to stengthen the conclusion at the least extent. If you just take a glance at one, just one assumption question stem now, you'll find something different. Which one of following is an assumption required by the argument above? obviously and automatically, we take the argument as what it is. there is substantive difference between strengthening and assumpting. think twice. What do you think? Xiaolongnv  |
