Strengthen vs Must Be True Questions

Hello, Was practicing the question type flashcards and having trouble differentiating between strengthen and must be true question types. Can you please clarify further on the difference between the two? I usually thought "strongly supported" tends to lead toward strengthen but not the case in the flashcards I went through. Thanks.

Hi,

For most strongly supported questions (which are just a type of must be trues) the question asks us which answer choice is supported by the passage. For strengthens worded similarly, the question will ask us which of the answer choices support the authors conclusion. Make sure to read the question in full rather than just looking for keywords.
