Why the other options are wrong:

• Speech, story and substance.: The three qualities named are structure, logic and narrative rather than speech, story and substance.
• Structure, story and reason.: The source specifically names logic and narrative rather than story and reason.
• Quotes, examples and sections.: Quotes and examples may support writing, but they are not the three qualities listed.

Correct Answer: It reveals uncertainty and complexity.

Why this is correct: A law essay seeks to uncover uncertainty and complexity in the law, and then uses that understanding to argue a position.

Why the other options are wrong:

• It deals with arguments and positions.: Arguing a position is what follows the investigation, rather than what the essay first uncovers.
• It presents simplification of any law.: The statement emphasises uncovering complexity rather than simplifying every law.
• It addresses specific audience.: An audience is who receives the essay, rather than what it seeks to uncover within the law.

Correct Answer: Lack of understanding and direction.

Why this is correct: The speaker describes misunderstanding or misreading the question and leaving the argument’s direction unclear.

Why the other options are wrong:

• Improper language and structure.: The described mistakes concern understanding the question and directing the argument rather than language and structure alone.
• Mix-up of so many ideas.: The speaker identifies misunderstood questions and unclear arguments rather than too many ideas.
• Too imaginative in approach.: An overly imaginative approach is not the stated explanation for these mistakes.

Correct Answer: Propositions without any connect to a law.

Why this is correct: Students often make intelligent propositions without connecting them to legal authority.

Why the other options are wrong:

• Laws to elaborate the authenticity of essays.: The criticism is that propositions lack legal connections, rather than that students add laws for authenticity.
• Authentic laws of other cities as arguments.: The source describes claims without legal authority rather than using laws of other cities.
• Examples in capital letters.: Capital letters are used by the teacher for feedback, rather than by students for examples.

Correct Answer: Add context, argument and prediction.

Why this is correct: The suggested introduction gives context, sets out an argument and previews what comes next. In this choice, prediction means that preview, not a forecast about the law.

Why the other options are wrong:

• Include examples in the introduction.: The three-part advice is context, argument and a preview, rather than adding examples.
• State the main issue in the form of a question.: Framing the issue is part of context, but turning it into a question does not supply all three recommended elements.
• Use symbols and abbreviations.: Symbols and abbreviations are not the three elements recommended for the introduction.

Correct Answer: They are stressed out and misread the topic.

Why this is correct: Stress can cause students to misread the question and fail to answer it.

Why the other options are wrong:

• They remain indifferent to the topic.: The source identifies stress and misreading rather than indifference.
• They do not engage in extra reading.: The reason given is misreading the task rather than insufficient extra reading.
• They often make it too complicated.: The stated cause is misreading the question, rather than making the topic too complicated.
