The idea
Unit nine's trap was the paraphrase that adds, usually an explanation of motive. The test is correspondence, not plausibility: read the option against the sentence and reject anything the sentence does not contain, however reasonable it sounds.
In practice
Correspondence, not plausibility.
Where people slip
Unit nine named this trap.
