Set 7: Text Structure (Advanced)
Explanation
PASSAGE
The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle asserts a fundamental limit to precision: one cannot simultaneously know the exact position and momentum of a particle. This is not a measurement error, but an intrinsic property of the wave-like nature of matter.
Which choice best describes the distinction made in the text?
Detailed Answer Explanation
This question tests your understanding of how the text is organized. Distinction: 'Not measurement error' (tech) but 'intrinsic property' (ontological). Authors structure their writing purposefully to guide readers through their ideas. Identify the organizational pattern (cause-effect, compare-contrast, problem-solution) and how each part contributes to the whole. Authors choose organizational patterns deliberately to enhance their message. Recognizing whether a text uses chronological order, cause-effect, compare-contrast, or problem-solution helps you understand the author's purpose and follow the logic.
Key Evidence:
• "not a measurement error"
• "intrinsic property"
Why others are wrong: A (Explicitly says not error.), C (No cost.), B (Matter exists.).
