Conclusion questions
Posted: Thu Sep 30, 2010 5:18 pm
Hi, can somebody kindly help me understand something please?
I don't understand the conclusion questions! In some of later the tests (50+) there are many questions that ask something like: ..most accurately expresses the conclusion drawn in the argument, or ... main conclusion of the argument... or something like that. Is there a difference in these questions??? I mean- are they different types or something? Usually there are two tempting answer choices - 1st restates (what I think is) the conclusion almost word to word, and the 2nd has a conclusion that follows (restates what seems to be the conclusion together with a premise..), and sometimes the first type is right, sometimes it's the second type. What am I missing?? Thank you!
