PT48, S3, Q14, P3...Property rights in Canada

by jennifer Thu Sep 30, 2010 1:35 pm

14. IS LINE 20-22 THE LINE IN THE PASSAGE THAT MAKES C THE CORRECT ANSWER. IS C ALSO CORRECT BECAUSE THE QUESTION STATES "MOST COMPLETELY. I CHOOSE A, WHICH WAS THE WRONG ANSWER CHOICE.

Yup, you got it. And for (A), there's no discussion of a bill of sale anywhere in the passage.

Bills of sale and proofs of prior possession are mentioned on lines 48-49 but because neither of them most completely describe the meaning of having private property as a property owner, neither A nor B are correct. I was about to answer D on this one but then changed it at the last minute because C does present the most all-encompassing answer.

I chose B and I still don't understand why it would be wrong. I understand that C is mentioned in the passage, but isn't B supported by lines 45-51? What eliminates B?

im still having a tough time ruling out A when in the passage is says "Canadians rarely possess the legal documents that the concept or private property requires." How can something required by a property owner not describe it??

I was also having difficult choosing between A, B, and C but I think here is where the problem lies with A and B: neither of them (individually) are required by the Canadian definition of "property owner" as discussed in lines 15-23.

C, on the other hand, is very well supported by the passage as it states that the title of property owners necessarily grants one the right to make use of the property however one sees fit.

A (a bill of sale) is not necessarily required to be a property owner (because one might have B, proof of prior possession). And B is not necessarily required, because one might have A.....If thats the case, neither is a definitional requirement of a property owner because one can be a property owner without one or the other and so C is the most appropriate answer choice.

Hi, Noah, bill of sale is mentioned in line 48.

I think A is how to describe property ownership from a procedural way or legal form. C better demonstrates the meaning inside the concept of property ownership, which is a more substantial description.

Do you agree?

I just picked a and did not read the rest. Should we also always use POE for reading?

Thanks.

Will someone explain why (C) is better than (D)?

I was down to (C) and (D) and ended up picking (D).

Thanks in advance!

Answer C is a more complete description than answer D. Think this way: if one is allowed to make use of his or her property according to own wishes, then he or she can definitely transfer ownership rights to children. Answer C is supported by line 19-22.

Ok here is my explanation:

So keyword in the question stem is " according to concept of private property"

so we have to go to paragraph 2 where it is defined: All forms of property capable of being owned by individuals or groups, based on... encourages right of owners..use.. property as they see fit without outside interference"

so I'm basically using this information and matching it up to the answer choices.

A well I see this listed in the last paragraph, lets keep
B same as A keep for now

C this looks good and I'm gonna pick it because it matches my prephase and really provides a complete description of the meaning of property owner, as stated in the passage.

D no nothing about this in the passage

E exercise property right? membership in community? no

A and B - ok so these are items that one can possess to prove that you are the owner of the property, but it is not the definition of a property owner, according to how private property is defined. We're looking for something that is based on the philosophy from lines 19-22. This is where private property is defined in the passage.
