  • Principle identify questions ask test-takers to match the argument's reasoning to an abstract rule in the answer choices.
  • Analyzing the argument involves identifying its conclusion, the evidence provided, and underlying assumptions.
  • The correct principle often contrasts characteristics of two examples to highlight what a successful instance embodies.
  • The principle that a civic building should encourage social cohesion and make the city more alive, as exemplified by the art museum, is the correct answer for the given question.
