Hi,
I don’t think counter premise is something that author has to agree later on, not always.
So as you mentioned it could just be opposing author’s point.

2 is more of a opposing view or claim rather than just background information.
Note that road having poor design is a fact, but the officials claiming that that is the reason for increase in accidents is a claim/pov.

P.S. 1 is background information. 3 and 4 are supporting premises for conclusion which is 5.

Let me know if this makes sense. :)

why is 1 Background information. Background information is something that author does not engages with or is not something that is used as a part of reasoning, but here, this explains the problem statement, its used to address the conclusion, so it must be a premise

_______________________
CR 1

Charities will soon start scrutinizing major donors for any signs of financial wrongdoing. Even though the screening processes are estimated to disqualify up to ten percent of all prospective donors, they will still fail to identify one-third of all donors who have committed financial maleficence. Therefore, about five percent of actual donors will still provide unethically sourced money.

Which of the following inferences about the consequences of instituting the new screening processes is best supported by the passage above?

A. Incidences of financial wrongdoing are likely to rise by five percent.
B. The amount of money available to charities is likely to decrease.
C. The funding for social initiatives by charities is likely to fluctuate across a wider range.
D. Donations made solely for the benefit of the donor are likely to become rarer.
E. Potential first-time donors are likely to increase in number by ten percent.
_______________________
CR 2

A recent law ruled that all aviation companies have the right to refuse service to an individual if allowing the individual to fly would entail an eighty percent chance that he or she would suffer respiratory issues. The lawmakers justified the law, saying that the law protected both the aviation companies and their passengers.

The effectiveness of the law in regulating the behavior of aviation companies could be most questioned if which of the following were true?

A. The best interests of aviation companies often conflict with the best interests of their passengers.
B. An aviation company might lose passengers if the company, by screening passengers for risk of respiratory issues, seemed to suggest that taking its flights entailed a high risk of respiratory issues.
C. Flying might involve health risks other than the risk of respiratory issues.
D. Passengers who have an eighty percent chance of suffering from respiratory issues may not know that their risk is so great.
E. There is no legally accepted method for reliably determining the risk of a passenger suffering respiratory issues as a result of flying.

(2) When they met, Tessa had covered 2,100 meters.

_____________________
CR 1

High marginal tax rates do not lead to a large middle class; if this was the case, the nations with the highest marginal tax rates would also have the largest middle classes. The reality is that if marginal tax rates are adjusted to allow different countries to be reliably compared to one other, no such correlation is found.

If the statements above are all true, which of the following can properly be inferred on the basis of them?

A. Increasing a country’s marginal tax rates will not necessarily result in the growth of its middle class.
B. Reliably comparing the marginal tax rates of one country with another’s is not possible.
C. Nations with high marginal tax rates tend to restrict the growth of the upper class.
D. When countries are arranged in descending order by population, the least-populous countries generally have the lowest marginal tax rates and the smallest middle classes.
E. Nations with the highest marginal tax rates never have proportionally small middle classes.
_____________________
CR 2

Executive: My only opponent for the post of CEO has a corporate restructuring plan that goes against the goals of many on the board of directors. Nonetheless, some of these same members support him for the position due to his push for greater vertical integration. In order to win these members’ votes, I must prove to the members that my opponent does not align with their goals with regard to corporate restructuring.

Which of the following would, if true, most strongly suggest that the executive’s plan is unlikely to succeed?

A. On some topics, the executive and his opponent are in strong agreement.
B. Most of the members of the board of directors who support the executive care very much about vertical integration, but do not know much about corporate restructuring.
C. Sometimes, long-term corporate restructuring goals come into conflict with short-term corporate restructuring goals.
D. Many of the members of the board of directors who support the executive’s opponent for his push for greater vertical integration also support his corporate restructuring plan and are fully aware of its implication.
E. Some members of the board of directors are concerned about both the corporate restructuring plan and vertical integration.
