Verbal Question of the Day Chat Group

C seems like the answer

WHY D??

I can mark all options as "must" it’s difficult to get one option out.

Indeed

They are likely to vote that doesn’t mean they will have more political power

i think this should be A

I would have chosen A

Even associations (E) doesn’t imply more power so I think we can use this logic. It seems more generic whereas A doesn’t support the statement at all. It doesn’t signify an increase

we cant* use

old people are very rigid with their decision in voting, these oldiees are very difficult to mold so, their power are definitely going to increase politically.

Yes, you are right the correct one shouldn’t be option E. But now I have a strong inclination towards C as it says that nonsmokers do not gain weight when they quit smoking. So, option C in a way is going against the argument that is to be less supportive. I guess this won’t be incorrect.

The answer should be D
The passage mentions in the first line that quitting smoking is difficult because it is stressful and leads to weight gain.
So, If the second group has got some success, the Aerobic exercise should aid in one of these.

Conclusion: "The key to quitting, however, may be as simple as replacing an unhealthy activity with a healthy one"
Support: "At the one month mark, none in the first group had quit, but 40 percent of those in the second group had not smoked."

A is talking generically about regular exercise.
B Even if it was not the same number of participants, any success against 0 success in the first group is better.
C Talking about non smokers - irrelevant
D This is somewhat showing some support for the conclusion as per the premise in first line of the passage.
E We don’t know what % of participants from group 1 had quit after 1 year.

It’s C
From A to E, every option provides some theory or conclusion, however wild they might be, but within the process and context of the passage. Smokers and quitting with exercise etc., except C
C starts talking point with non smokers exercising and later stopping, if they used the word aerobics instead of exercise, it would’ve been a different story.
The answer is C

All arguments are weak, but C the weakest

I will go with option A

This question asks for a weakener. IMO C should be the answer.

hey guys

What’s the ques for today ?

The Purple Heart, a United States military decoration, can be awarded for an injury sustained during battle on foreign soil, on a US ship in combat, and during an attack on US soil, but not awarded for one due to the soldier’s own negligence.

A. and during an attack on US soil, but not awarded for one
B. and during an attack on US soil, but excluding it when
C. and during an attack on US soil, but not awarded when it is
D. or during an attack on US soil, but not for one
E. or during an attack on US soil, but it cannot be awarded if it is

can someone explain why e won’t be the answer

it appears 2 times in E and refers to two different things

Q1. The last decade furnished its fair share of scientific breakthroughs which make us gasp in wonder at physicists detecting previously predicted phenomena, astronomers adding awe-inspiring details about Pluto, and biologists who honed an immunological defence mechanism into a powerful gene-editing tool.

Q2. Some climatologists, while admitting that the burning of fossil fuels have raised the level of CO2 in the atmosphere and have caused an increase in the level of global temperature, argue that both these effects are contributing to an abundance of plant mass and thereby leading to heightened consumption of CO2 levels, and bringing down the temperature

Difficulty - Hard

because in choice E, double "it" have no clear reference. probably first "it" refers to "The Purple Heart" but second one has no clear reference

can someone please give me some tips to increase speed without losing accuracy on these kinds of philosophical RCs

To solve its 4 questions I am taking more than 10 minutes as the the main ideas in philosophical essays are generally very hazy
