Argument Part Questions

Argument Part Questions:

Very similar to Main Point questions.
In AP questions you are given a small part of the argument and asked to select one label
from the five labels presented to you in the answer choices.
o The correct answer choice contains the label that accurately describes the part of the
argument that the question stem has selected.
o Usually, the part of the argument the question stem selects will not be the main
conclusion of the argument.
o Significantly harder than MP questions
o Similar to the Method of Reasoning Questions (Method).
AP questions like MP questions ought to be considered prep work for all LR questions since they
test your ability to do something very foundational.
Heavily uses referential phrasing.
Example Argument Part Questions stems include:
o The proposition that the public is now more interested in reading and hearing about
crime plays which one of the following roles in the argument?
o Which one of the following most accurately describes the role played in the argument
by the statement that zooplankton feed upon phytoplankton?
o Which one of the following most accurately describes the role played in the passage by
the point that capitalism and industrialization are distinct?
o The assertion that it is not illegal to use one person as a vehicle for another's ambitions
is used in the ethicist's argument in which one of the following ways?
