How a Wrong Answer Is Built
Captions available
The idea
The wrong answers to sample question one are metaphor, allusion, stock attitude and euphemism. Each is a real device and each is plausible at a glance. A candidate who knows only that a device is present, without knowing which, cannot separate them.
In practice
Every distractor is a real term.
Where people slip
Recognition is not identification.
