hi
GMATNinja
Can you please share a list of keywords that helps us to evaluate options in RC
Eg.
1. Which of the following best describes the function of the first paragraph?
(A) It poses a question to be answered.
(B) It outlines a process and contrasts it with an opposing process.
(C) In introduces a theory and indicates that variations in that theory exist.
(D) It advances an argument to be disputed later in the passage.
(E) It introduces a philosophy and attempts to reconcile it with another philosophy.
(D) Choice (D) says that the passage “advances an argument.” This implies that the author is actually advocating a position (to “advance” is to argue for). The author is simply describing philosophers’ views, not arguing in favor of anything.
Knowing that advances an argument means author's opinion, helps to eliminate option quickly.
