Trap: The Figure That Is Not There
Captions available
The idea
An option may name a figure the passage does not contain at all, relying on the candidate's uncertainty. Test by pointing: name the words that constitute the figure. If you cannot point at them, the option is wrong, which is unit one's rule applied to devices.
In practice
Point at the words, or reject it.
Where people slip
Unpointable means wrong.
