, SECTION 1
VERBAL REASONING
■ SECTION OVERVIEW & STRATEGY
• Format: 11 passages, 4 questions each = 44 questions | Time: 21 minutes
• Question Types: True / False / Can't Tell based on passage content only
• Key Strategy: Read the question FIRST, then skim the passage for relevant information.
Never use outside knowledge — answer ONLY from what the text states.
• Time per question: ~28 seconds. Spend ~45 sec reading the passage, then ~20 sec per
question.
• Golden Rule: If the passage neither confirms NOR denies the statement, choose Can't
Tell.
■ COMMON MISTAKES IN VERBAL REASONING
1. Using outside knowledge: You may KNOW a fact is true in real life — but if the passage
doesn't state it, it's Can't Tell.
2. Absolute language traps: Words like 'always', 'never', 'all', 'only' in the statement — check the
passage matches exactly.
3. Partial matches: The passage mentions a related concept but not exactly what the statement
claims — that's Can't Tell.
4. Time overrun: Don't spend more than 45 seconds on any single question. Flag and move on.
PASSAGE 1 — Climate Change
Climate change represents one of the most pressing challenges facing humanity today. Rising
global temperatures, driven primarily by the accumulation of greenhouse gases such as CO2 and
methane, have led to unprecedented changes in weather patterns. Arctic ice sheets are retreating
at rates that exceed even the most pessimistic scientific projections from two decades ago. Some
scientists argue that we have already crossed several irreversible tipping points, beyond which
feedback loops will accelerate warming regardless of human intervention. However, a vocal
minority of researchers contend that technological solutions such as solar geoengineering could still
avert the worst consequences. Policy makers, meanwhile, remain divided on the most effective
strategy: carbon taxes, international treaties, or direct government investment in renewable energy.
Public opinion surveys consistently show that younger generations are far more alarmed about
climate change than their older counterparts, though this has not yet translated into decisive
electoral
outcomes.
Q1. Arctic ice sheets are retreating faster than scientists predicted 20 years ago.
A. True
B. False
, C. Can't Tell
✔ Correct Answer: A. True
The passage states ice sheets are retreating 'at rates that exceed even the most pessimistic
scientific projections from two decades ago'. This directly supports the statement.
■ Tip: Look for exact match in language. 'Most pessimistic projections' = fastest predicted retreat,
so exceeding this = faster than predicted.
■ Common Mistake: Don't confuse 'some scientists' with 'all scientists'. The statement is about
factual retreat rates, not opinion.
Q2. The majority of researchers believe that tipping points have already been
crossed.
A. True
B. False
C. Can't Tell
✔ Correct Answer: B. False
The passage says 'Some scientists argue' tipping points have been crossed — 'some' implies not a
majority. It is therefore False that the majority hold this view.
■ Tip: Quantifier words ('some', 'many', 'most', 'all') are critical. 'Some' explicitly excludes majority.
■ Common Mistake: Students often choose 'Can't Tell' here but 'some' logically means NOT the
majority.
Q3. Carbon taxes are the most effective policy for addressing climate change.
A. True
B. False
C. Can't Tell
✔ Correct Answer: C. Can't Tell
The passage says policy makers are 'divided' between carbon taxes, treaties, and renewable
investment. No conclusion is drawn about effectiveness. The passage does not evaluate any
strategy.
■ Tip: Whenever the passage presents multiple options without ranking them, the answer is
usually Can't Tell.
■ Common Mistake: This is a classic outside-knowledge trap. Many students 'know' carbon taxes
are debated — but the passage makes no judgement.
Q4. Younger people are more concerned about climate change than older people,
according to surveys.
A. True
B. False
C. Can't Tell
✔ Correct Answer: A. True
The passage explicitly states: 'Public opinion surveys consistently show that younger generations
are far more alarmed about climate change than their older counterparts.' This directly confirms the
statement.
