Student Answer: 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

Student Answer: 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.

Student Answer: Some forms of art making are expensive and require a good deal of money to
pursue. Many people who aren’t artists prefer to pursue practical and safe careers.
Having the time and money to make art doesn’t guarantee an artist commercial success. Splitting time between two pursuits in life often causes both to suffer.

ng is true?
Student Answer: Aron inserted the current batteries in his television remote control two
months before he inserted the current batteries in his CD player. The amount of energy required to power the CD player is not greater than the amount of energy needed to power the
television remote control. Aron has used his television remote control more times than he has
used his CD player since inserting the current batteries into each device. Double A batteries provide less energy than either C batteries or D batteries.

Student Answer: Some employees of the company were switched into new departments to fill
the new positions. Some employees who quit over dissatisfaction with the reorganization
were immediately replaced by new hires. The new positions were created to respond to a
greater demand for company X’s products. Some employees were laid off as a number of old positions were eliminated in the reorganization.

Student Answer: It is useless to try to treat obesity or alcohol addiction through drugs. All drugs, if taken at too high a dosage, pose the risk that the people taking them will be plunged into
depression. The benefits of a medication may be at least somewhat offset by its side
effects. Drugs that affect pleasure centers in the brain are often taken at dosages considered to be too high.
