Determining which answer best expresses the point at issue - LSAT Logical Reasoning
Card 1 of 184
Reporter: News agencies are trying to determine how to adapt to the modern technology age. Should they continue to promote old media outlets, incorporate news programs into social media, or develop an altogether new approach to breaking news stories?
News anchor: The discussion is not entirely open for debate. While there are some decisions still to be made, it is difficult to see any plausible new approach outside of social media.
The reporter and news anchor most likely disagree about whether?

The reporter presents three ways for news agencies to adapt. The news anchor does not suggest that there is no room for discussion but essentially suggests that there should only be two options for discussion. The reporter and anchor most likely disagree about whether there can be any new approach to breaking news that doesn't involve social media.

Jane: Nowadays 3D effects are seen as a distracting gimmick that most people no longer appreciate. The recent trend toward producing more 3D movies is not a good financial strategy for movie studios. In fact, I and my friends refuse to attend movies in 3D, and I know many others that feel the same way.
Bill: But you fail to take into account the fact that 3D ticket prices are higher than 2D ticket prices. The difference in price offsets the lower attendance at 3D movies. I, for one, appreciate having the choice between 2D and 3D films.
The dialogue provides the most support for the claim that Jane and Bill disagree about whether

Bill’s rebuttal to Jane’s argument is that studios can make up for the lower attendance at 3D films through increased ticket prices. Hence, he does not agree with Jane that producing 3D movies “is not a good financial strategy for movie studios.” The remaining answer choices do not contain statements about which Jane and Bill necessarily disagree, even though the topics may have been mentioned in the dialogue.

While the argument is over a law about the protection of religion, the issue is not about the relation between religion and government, as both sides agree that religion should be in some way protected from interference. The issue is whether the law's language, and especially its vagueness, appropriately protects an individual's religious beliefs.

Jeans have been a staple of fashion for many decades. They may have remained fashionable for so long because they are durable, comfortable, and easy to maintain. It seems unlikely that any one of these factors alone could account for the popularity of jeans. After all, many articles of clothing have gone out of style even though they were comfortable. The same can be said of clothing items that were durable and clothing that was easy to maintain.

Roger: The only reason diesel cars are not commonly used in the United States is that people believe they are more costly to fuel and maintain than gasoline cars. Fueling diesel cars is less expensive than fueling gasoline cars because they get many more miles per gallon. Diesel cars also last many more years. While other countries transition to diesel, the United States follows a myth.
Tamara: Many people in the United states do not even know that purchasing a diesel car is an option. Others may choose to purchase a gasoline car because they overemphasize the purchase price difference.

Plug-in hybrid vehicles are much more cost-effective than vehicles powered by traditional gasoline engines. These hybrid vehicles cost only twice as much as gasoline vehicles in the same class, but consume only 1/10 of the gasoline while traveling an equal distance.
