LSAT Quiz of the Day

The chef removes appearance (blindfolding) and observes a different assessment, inferring appearance influenced judgments. B is not used. C misdescribes the comparison. D is not ad hominem. E is not about temporal sequence.

From 'some trained people are not certified' and 'no uncertified person handles hazardous materials,' it follows that some trained people do not handle hazardous materials. A need not be true because those trained-yet-uncertified might not be volunteers. B contradicts the premises. D is unsupported. E contradicts the premises.

The conclusion treats an increase in reported accidents as an increase in actual danger. If reporting increased due to cameras making documentation easier, the observed rise does not indicate greater danger, directly undermining the causal claim. B suggests no traffic-volume change, which neither strengthens nor weakens the causal inference by itself. C would, if anything, suggest greater safety. D concerns where cameras were installed, not why reports rose post-installation. E indicates no change in policing and is neutral with respect to the reporting vs. danger distinction.

The argument infers superior flavor from the fact that certified cheeses meet a minimum age. That leap requires that meeting the age threshold suffices for superior flavor, i.e., all cheeses aged at least six months have superior flavor. B is unnecessary; some younger cheeses might also be good without affecting the conclusion about certified cheeses. C is not needed because the claim is about certified cheeses only. D is too strong; other factors might matter but the claim only needs age to be sufficient. E is comparative and not required for the claim that certified cheeses are superior.

Battery life depends on multiple power draws; increased screen brightness and background syncing can outweigh CPU savings, explaining the shorter battery life despite a cooler CPU. A, C, D, and E do not address net power consumption changes in a way that reconciles the observations.

The second sentence introduces radiocarbon dates indicating gradual adoption, directly challenging the earlier migration interpretation. B, C, D, and E do not describe the role of that sentence.

The conclusion relies on the study as evidence that giving tablets leads to higher scores; this only helps if tablets actually contributed to the gains. E states that causal link. A is too strong; exact duplication is unnecessary. B is not required for average scores to rise. C is irrelevant. D is unnecessary because tablets could still be a significant cause even if other policies existed.

The critic relies on a global statistic to claim local ineffectiveness. If locally the pollution entering the bay consists disproportionately of straws, reducing straws would meaningfully reduce local pollution, undercutting the critic's claim. B is merely descriptive and weak. C might help but does not address the critic's reliance on the 1 percent figure. D and E are about popularity and costs, not environmental impact.

The passage analogizes emoji to gestures and intonation, which provide contextual cues about tone; thus C follows. A, D, and E are not supported. B is contrary to the text.

B treats similar cases alike and differentiates based on a relevant difference—attendance size—with a justification tied to safety and function. A ignores relevant differences. C uses an irrelevant difference. D imposes a threshold not shown to be relevant to fairness. E treats all cases alike without regard to relevant differences.

The author acknowledges potential benefits but stresses conditions under which those benefits are realized. B reflects that conditional endorsement. A overstates. C and D contradict the passage. E introduces a cause not discussed as primary.

The author criticizes the lone-genius narrative and highlights collaborators' essential roles, indicating skepticism toward exclusive credit claims. A and D misrepresent the tone. B suggests some approval, which is absent. E is unsupported.

The claim concerns total emissions, so upstream electricity generation matters. C shows charging emissions exceed the diesel fleet's, undercutting the conclusion. A and B are tangential. D is a preference issue, not emissions. E is hypothetical and does not show that electrification increases or fails to reduce emissions.

The passage argues that access is not enough and highlights plain-language summaries and outreach as necessary for understanding, supporting D. A contradicts the passage. B and E go beyond the author's claims. C imputes disinterest not asserted.

To restore canopy in five years, the chosen species must resist the fungus and grow quickly to canopy size; D directly provides both. A and B are supportive of implementation but not canopy restoration speed. C helps with resistance but not growth rate. E gives planting numbers but not resistance or growth speed.
