Some questions ask you to describe the individual role that a statement is playing in a larger argument. These questions require you to understand the statement in question, but even more important is your understanding of its context and of the argument's conclusion. Everything in an argument is in the service of its conclusion(s), so you must clarify the relationship between the statement and the conclusion.
