Premise and Conclusion Analysis Drill #4

[tryhard]

Page 80, regarding question 4, would the argument be strong if the conclusion is changed to one of the below ...
1. "Any person would be well-served to undertake every endeavor, that increases one's self awareness, presented to them, no matter how dangerous"
2. "some people would be well-served to undertake every endeavor, that increases one's self awareness, presented to them, no matter how dangerous"

Thank you!

Hi Tryhard,

Your first revision is pretty close, though my version below is a bit more readable.

"Any person would be well-served to undertake every endeavor presented to them that increases their self awareness, no matter how dangerous."

It still sounds like a ridiculous statement, but it follows from a very ridiculous premise that "every endeavor that increases one's awareness is an endeavor worth trying."

There is maybe some difference between "trying" and "undertaking," which is why on the test itself you make note of slight differences like that and just choose the best answer available.

Good question!
