22. B
    James has interpreted Ralph’s remark that "All Italians enjoy Spaghetti" to mean that "Italians enjoy only Spaghetti." This is the reason for his disagreeing with Ralph’s statement. James claims that he knows some Italians who like baked potatoes just to point out that they love some other food, other than Spaghetti.

23. C
    The statement in C denies the fact that nurses serve in places where they are offered the highest pay.

24. B
    Choices A, C, D and E present features of the advertisement which might be regarded as flaws, but which are very minor in comparison to the flaw indicated in choice B. The force of the argument presented in this advertisement lies in the attractiveness of the promise of "Space - age circuitry" in the X - 2700 Stereo system.

25. B
    Choice A and E are baseless. Choice C is irrelevant since poetry may not be tautological or empirical. Choice D suggests a spread of ignorance brought about by lack of understanding or comprehensibility of the argument given. So it does not make sense as it sounds self-defeating. Statement B asserts that the only meaningful statements are tautological or empirical must be regarded by its author or meaningful only if it is tautological or empirical. Hence he would undercut his own argument if choice B were taken to be true.
