Question type

Inference

The one idea it tests

When the author says actors risk far more than what they lose is objectively worth, the author accepts that a specific case fits that.

The basic logic

Find the author's general claim about risks outweighing measurable value, then check whether the example given is offered as a case of it.

Tiny words that decide it

“far outweigh”
“thus”
“each”

Playground logic

Priya says classes stake nearly everything to win back what was snatched, and then shows both rooms betting all their points over a two-dollar trophy. So she would agree each room risked more than the trophy was worth.

How to apply it

Open Question 26 in your official copy and answer it first.

Find the author's general claim in the final paragraph and the example tied to it. The right answer applies that claim to the example without exaggerating. Cross out choices that overstate, that drift outside the passage, or that reverse what the research found.
