Summary
The content focuses on dissecting an inference question related to comparative passages on the LSAT, highlighting the methodology to identify disagreements between authors on specific assertions.
- Inference questions require proving an answer with information from the passage, even if not directly stated.
- For comparative passages, the challenge is to infer distinct beliefs of each author and identify a point of disagreement.
- The process involves elimination of answer choices based on whether both authors' perspectives can be definitively known and if they differ.
- Answer choice D is identified as correct because it represents a topic on which the authors of passages A and B have clearly opposing views.
- The methodology emphasizes understanding authors' viewpoints and using logical reasoning to deduce the correct answer.
