I saw this question on kaplan book, don't know what is the different between chocie a and b. They seems to be contraceptive of each other.
Stimulus: Vague laws set vague limits on people's freedom, which makes it impossible for them to know for certain whether their actions are legal. Thus, under vague laws people cannot feel secure.
The conclusion follows logically if which one of the following is assumed?
A people can feel secure only if they know for certain whether their actions are legal.(Correct Answer)
B if people don't know for certain whether their actions are legal, then they might not feel secure.
From the stimulus, I got
the evidence if Vague laws---not know if legal
the conclusion if vague laws ---not feel secure
so the assumption is if not know if legal ---- not feel secure
both A and B choice come from this.
Can anyone help me with this? thanks

Stimulus says "cannot"...answer b uses "might not". So answer b is wrong.tequilawine wrote:I saw this question on kaplan book, don't know what is the different between chocie a and b. They seems to be contraceptive of each other.

Re: Assumption problem-Help
^^ Basically, vague laws -> not knowing what's legal -> not feeling secure, period. B is more like not knowing what's legal -> POSSIBLY not feeling securing.TAD wrote:Stimulus says "cannot"...answer b uses "might not".
