QUESTION TEXT: Medical doctor: Sleep deprivation is the cause…
QUESTION TYPE: Strengthen
CONCLUSION: We should change work days to be more flexible.
REASONING: Sleep deprivation causes a lot of problems.
ANALYSIS: Most of the wrong answer choices talk about the amount of hours worked. But the doctor didn’t mention that. They proposed working the same number of hours, but flexibly.
___________
- Overwork is the amount of work. The doctor didn’t recommend changing the amount. He recommended changing when we work. But we could still work long hours, flexibly.
- CORRECT. This shows a connection between flexible hours and sleeping more. The argument didn’t make that connection.
- So? This doesn’t help us prove that people would sleep more with flexible hours.
- The doctor wasn’t talking about the number of hours in the workweek. They were talking about when we work those hours. E.g. 9-5 vs. working 10-2 along with 4-8. Both options total 8 hours.
- Show me where the doctor mentioned the length of the workday.
