Question type

Organization

The one idea it tests

Match each part of the choice to a paragraph's job, in order.

The basic logic

Use your Paragraph Map. One paragraph describes, one reports two sides, one gives the author's argument. Every piece of the right choice must match, and nothing extra may appear.

Tiny words that decide it

“however”
“but”
“while”

Playground logic

The Paws Pass map reads: here is the new thing; here is the worry and the defense; here is my own case. The right sequence follows those three jobs in order.

Step 2 · The kid passage

This question belongs to Passage 1 (Questions 1–7). Read its kid passage and structure guide first: The Paws Pass →

Step 3 · Try the model question

Which sequence best follows the order of the Paws Pass passage?

Step 5 · Work the real question

Open PrepTest 116, Section 1, Question 4 in your official copy from LSAC (for example in LawHub) and read it there.

Your answer

How to apply it

Open Question 4 in your official copy and answer it first.

Write one role word for each paragraph before reading the choices. Then test each choice piece by piece: every part must match a paragraph's job, in the same order. A choice fails if even one part describes something the passage never does, or if it gives the author an opinion pointing the wrong way.
