Question 1
pts
All sages provide both wisdom and inspiration. Since Dasha’s speech
contained
wisdom and greatly inspired her audience, Dasha is a sage.
Which one of the following points out the flaw in the argument above?
Just because Dasha is a sage doesn’t mean that she is always wise and
inspirational.
Just because Dasha’s speech provided wisdom and inspiration doesn’t mean
that it provided more wisdom than inspiration.
Just because Dasha satisfied two requirements of being a sage doesn’t
necessarily mean that she satisfies all the requirements of being a sage.
Just because Dasha provided wisdom and inspiration in a speech doesn’t
mean that all sages use speeches to provide wisdom and inspiration.
Question 2
pts
Mrs. Orlof teaches two history classes, one in the morning and one in the
afternoon. Yesterday she gave the same test to both classes. Anyone who
failed the test must take a retest. Since a greater percentage of students
who took the morning test failed the test than students who took the
afternoon test, more of Orlof’s morning history students than afternoon
history students will have to take the retest.
The conclusion above is not necessarily valid because
more students in the morning class may have passed the test than failed the
test
some students may have been absent from both classes

some of the students who passed the afternoon test may have received
information about the test from morning students

Question 3
pts
Reporter: A new campaign finance reform bill being considered by Congress
would limit
the amount of campaign contributions that political candidates can receive.
However, a survey of candidates running for mayor, governor, and senate
seats shows that not one of them favors the bill. Clearly, there is no desire
among politicians to limit campaign contributions.
Which one of the following points out the flaw in the reporter’s argument
above?
The reporter doesn’t indicate the amount that the new bill would limit
campaign contributions.
The evidence provided by the reporter suggests that most politicians are in
favor of the new bill.
The reporter wrongly assumes that no politician has ever supported a bill
intended to limit campaign contributions
The views of candidates currently running for office do not necessarily
represent the views of all politicians.
