All too many weaklings are also cowards, and few cowards fail to be fools. Thus there must be at least one person who is both a weakling and a fool.The flawed pattern of reasoning in the argument above is most similar to that in which one of the following?
Answer(s): C
The "All too many" is just literary, not logical, in nature. The first clause simply means Many or Some weaklings are cowards. The second clause can be read as Many or Most or Some cowards are fools. (Why are we seemingly being so loose in our translations? Because the choices are. Because whichever one of these turns out to be correct, it represents a significant verbal variation on the original. None of the choices reads "All too many X," or "few Y are not Z." So we have to stay a little flexible here.) With that in mind, a loose translation of the first clause would be: Some (or Most) of A are B, and the second as Some (or Most) B are C.When we turn to the conclusion, however, we can feel confident that it can be solidly translated. We know from our formal logic training that the phrase "At least one" means precisely one thing: SOME. So the conclusion is:Some weaklings are fools. Now, given that conclusion, we ought probably to be drawn first to options [All weasels are carnivores and no...], [Some painters are dancers, since...] and [A majority of the...], each of whose conclusions uses the word "Some" or the phrase "At least one." Let's start with those three.
Critic: Most chorale preludes were written for the organ, and the greatest chorale preludes written for the organ were written by J. S. Bach. One of Bach's chorale preludes dramatizes one hymn's perspective on the year's end. This prelude is agonizing and fixed on the passing of the old year, with its dashed hopes and lost opportunities. It does not necessarily reveal Bach's own attitude toward the change of the year, but does reflect the tone of the hymn's text. People often think that artists create in order to express their own feelings. Some artists do. Master artists never do, and Bach was a master artist.If the critic's statements are true, then on the basis of them which one of the following CANNOT be true?
This would be a good one to postpone, as some of the later questions were less involved than this one. The question stem asks you to find the choice that must be false, so the best approach is to read through the stimulus once but be prepared to check back with it when you consult the choices. (There's far too much detail to expect to be able to handle the choices without checking back.) As it turns out, the correct answer comes from the last few sentences. Master artists never create in order to express their own feelings. Bach is a master artist, so he never created works (chorale preludes or not) to express his feelings.
Quasars celestial objects so far away that their light takes at least 500 million years to reach Earth have been seen since 1963. For anything that far away to appear from Earth the way quasars do, it would have to burn steadily at a rate that produces more light than 90 billion suns would produce. But nothing that burns at a rate that produces that much light could exist for more than about 100 million years.If the statements above are true, which one of the following must also be true on the basis of them?
Answer(s): E
Here's a rare Inference question that's vulnerable to prephrasing: Quasars burn so hot that they can't last for more than 100 million years, but light from quasars takes at least 500 million years to get here. Quasars have only been seen since 1963, and so any quasar light that anyone on Earth has seen has to be at least 500 million years old, and so, as option [No quasar that has ever been...] points out, that quasar itself cannot exist any more. By the time its light hits us, it's been dead for at least 400 million years.
Medical researcher: As expected, records covering the last four years of ten major hospitals indicate that babies born prematurely were more likely to have low birth weights and to suffer from health problems than were babies not born prematurely. These records also indicate that mothers who had received adequate prenatal care were less likely to have low birth weight babies than were mothers who had received inadequate prenatal care. Adequate prenatal care, therefore, significantly decreases the risk of low birth weight babies.Which one of the following, if true, most weakens the medical researcher's argument?
Answer(s): B
We have to weaken the medical researcher's argument, so as usual we have to identify the components of the argument. The conclusion is that adequate prenatal care significantly decreases the risk of low birth weight babies. The evidence for this is that hospital records show that mothers who had received adequate prenatal care were less likely to have low birth weight babies. The medical researcher also tells us that records show that babies born prematurely were more likely to have low birth weights than on-time babies. This is a classic correlation = causation argument: the author cites a high correlation between inadequate prenatal care and low birth weight babies, and then concludes that one must have caused the other. In most cases the best way to weaken these arguments is to find an alternative explanation, or to find a situation where the two are not correlated (you see X, but you don't see Y).
Formal performance evaluations in the professional world are conducted using realistic situations. Physicians are allowed to consult medical texts freely, attorneys may refer to law books and case records, and physicists and engineers have their manuals at hand for ready reference. Students, then, should likewise have access to their textbooks whenever they take examinations.The reasoning in the argument is questionable because the argument
This is a Flaw question. For these questions, it's usually possible to form a prephrase of the answer, which should save you time in reviewing answer choices. Put simply, the argument says that students should be allowed to have open book tests. Why? Because in performance evaluations in the professional world, doctors, lawyers, etc. are allowed to refer to their books. This is nothing more than an argument by analogy. The operating assumption in all arguments by analogy is that the two things that are compared are, in fact, comparable. Therefore, the best way to weaken them is to show how the two things are not comparable. Or, in this case, where you must determine why the reasoning is questionable, look for an answer choice that says something along the lines of "the reasoning is flawed because it tries to compare apples and oranges." Option [fails to consider the possibility that the purposes of...] does just that by saying that the author hasn't considered the possibility that the purposes of the two tests mentioned in the stimulus are in fact quite dissimilar.
This morning, a bakery makes exactly one delivery, consisting of exactly six loaves of bread. Each of the loaves is exactly one of three kinds: oatmeal, rye, or wheat, and each is either sliced or unsliced. The loaves that the bakery delivers this morning must be consistent with the following:There are at least two kinds of loaves.There are no more than three rye loaves.There is no unsliced wheat loaf.There is at least one unsliced oatmeal loaf.If two or more of the loaves are unsliced, then at least one of the unsliced loaves is rye.Which one of the following could be a complete and accurate list of the loaves that the bakery delivers?
Answer(s): D
As it turns out, Rule 5 eliminates all the wrong choices, but if you tackled the rules in order, here's what you would have found: Rule 1 kills option [six unsliced oatmeal loaves], which has only oatmeal loaves. Rule 2 doesn't help, but Rule 3 kills option [five unsliced oatmeal loaves, one unsliced wheat loaf]., which has the for bidden unsliced wheat loaf. Rule 4 doesn't help, but Rule 5 knocks off options [five unsliced oatmeal loaves, one sliced rye loaf] and [four unsliced oatmeal loaves, two sliced wheat loaves], which each have two or more unsliced loaves but no unsliced rye loaf.

Answer(s): A
The reference to unsliced loaves should point you to Rules 3, 4, and 5. Each choice has at least one unsliced oatmeal loaf, and there's no unsliced wheat loaf among the choices, but option [three oatmeal loaves] is a straightforward violation of Rule 5. With more than one unsliced loaf, this option needs to have an unsliced rye loaf as well, but it isn't there.
