✍️ Sample CLAST Questions & Answers
1. Which approach is MOST appropriate when beginning a CLAST essay introduction?
✓ Use a broad, engaging hook followed by narrowing context and a thesis
An effective introduction uses a hook to engage readers, provides context, and ends with the thesis.
2. An argument that jumps from a few observed cases to a universal conclusion is guilty of:
✓ Hasty generalization
Hasty generalization draws a broad conclusion from an insufficient or unrepresentative sample of evidence.
3. The interquartile range (IQR) of a data set is 18. Q1 = 22. What is Q3?
✓ 40
IQR = Q3 − Q1, so Q3 = IQR + Q1 = 18 + 22 = 40.
4. Which of the following best defines a 'premise' in an argument?
✓ A statement offered as evidence or reason to support a conclusion
Premises are the supporting statements in an argument that provide the basis from which a conclusion is drawn.
5. A die is rolled once. What is the probability of rolling a prime number?
✓ 1/2
Prime numbers on a die are 2, 3, and 5 — that is 3 out of 6 faces, so P = 3/6 = 1/2.
6. What type of triangle has all three sides of equal length?
✓ Equilateral
An equilateral triangle has all three sides equal and all three angles equal to 60°.
