Question 1 of 3
1. Question
There is another plan afoot for our teachers – that our best teachers can expect to be the principal of a school in 10 years. Please, let our best teachers do what they do best, that is, let them teach! Principals, primarily, do not teach. They administer the school’s finances; they manage their staff; they deal with tradespeople; they do a great job, but, unfortunately, they do not teach. Since they are identified as great educators, let students benefit from their expertise.
Which statement strengthens the argument the most?

Question 2 of 3
2. Question
Jobs are likely to become scarce in the future. An increase in automation, progress in artificial intelligence, and mechanization will reduce the number of people needed to do a job. The trend has already started. Fewer workers are needed in warehouses. Self-driving cars and vehicles are likely to replace human drivers shortly. Automatic checkout counters have reduced the retail staff needed. Numerous other examples can be given. Buying a robot with years of functional life is much cheaper than employing a worker and paying him every year. This phenomenon is likely to have a greater impact on workers doing manual jobs at low pay rates. Educated and highly skilled workers will not be impacted to the same extent much. Thus, getting a higher education and acquiring higher-order critical thinking and problem-solving skills has become more critical than ever before.
What is the implicit assumption in the argument?
CorrectIncorrect -
