I am having trouble with the true v. false flash cards.

Although I have only done the intro course, I am having trouble with certain cards. Particularly, "Which one of the following conflicts with the information in the passage?" Thanks,

Hello @Jose-Carrillo,

Those flashcards will be really helpful when you come to understand them. Each card gives you a question stem. You are trying to figure out what the correct answer is going to look like. You also want to predict what the incorrect answers will look like. Try to phrase them in terms of "True."

For example:
"Which of the following must be false?"
Correct answer: Cannot Be True
Incorrect answers: Could Be True

"Which one of the following conflicts with the information in the passage?"
Your correct answer is something that, according to the information in the passage, cannot be true.
Correct answer: Cannot Be True
Incorrect answers: Could Be True
