NN, I have the same baffle as #14, though you have replied.
Look closely to the option B and C, do we need pay extra attention on the nuances "only if" and "modified"? In fact, it is these two points that distort the original meaning, therefore we rule out B and c.
By the way, when we tackle Principle questions, as we do with others, single out the premises and main conclusion, then take a close look at options. Eliminate some obviously irrelevant options and other tricky ones such as B & C in #4. The correct one should be a exact or general restatement of the combination of premises and main conclusion.
Most principle questions can be viewed as either mainpoint or strengthen type questions. Therefore your understanding of the Principle-type questions is pretty close.

Is my understanding correct?

Thx a lot. I have already read this series of posts and prepare to review them.
I have a question for 1). Here is my analyzing process:
Professor Chan: The literature department’s undergraduate courses should cover only true literary works, and not such frivolous material as advertisements.
Professor Wigmore: Advertisements might or might not be true literary works but they do have a powerfully detrimental effect on society(intermediate conclusion)—largely because people cannot discern their real messages. The literature department’s courses give students the critical skills to analyze and understand texts. Therefore, it is the literature department’s responsibility to include the study of advertisements in its undergraduate courses
There is a gap between these 2 premises. Choice C correctly bridge it. "Advertisement" is a good case for students to develop thire critical skills to analyze and understand texts
