DISCUSSION: The critics dislike Jacobs. The author is favorable to Jacobs. So we know C-E are out.
To choose between A and B, ask yourself two things:
- Does the author have anything nice to say about the critics? No.
- Does the author have anything bad to say about Jacobs? No.
So the author completely rejects the critics. A is correct.
(Some people would say: “But A is extreme!”. That doesn’t matter. The LSAT has nothing against extreme statements, if they’re correct.)
___________
- CORRECT. The author has nothing but praise for Jacobs, and nothing but rejection for the critics.
- The author has nothing good to say about the critics; there’s no reluctance.
- Line 27 shows that the author disagrees with the critics. They say “But,” in response to the critics’ views.
- Same as C. The author likes Jacobs’ book.
- Same as C. The author spends the whole passage praising Jacobs’ book.
