Re: LSAT Questions And Explanations

You want to free download LSAT sample questions with explanations so I have it and I am sharing with you:

Question 1
Which one of the following best captures the author’s attitude
toward Lichtenstein’s work?
(A) enthusiasm for its more rebellious aspects
(B) respect for its successful parody of youth and
innocence
(C) pleasure in its blatant rejection of abstract
expressionism
(D) admiration for its subtle critique of contemporary
culture
(E) appreciation for its ability to incorporate both
realism and naivete
Explanation for Question 1
This question requires the test taker to understand the attitude
the author of the passage displays toward Lichtenstein’s work.
The correct response is (E). Response (E) most accurately and
completely captures the author’s attitude. First, the author’s
appreciation for Lichtenstein’s art is indicated by way of contrast
with the way in which the author describes what
Lichtenstein’s art is not. For example, the author asserts that
Lichtenstein’s work “transcended mere parody,“ and that unlike
other pop art, it did not display a “jaded cynicism.“ Similarly,
the author holds that there is more to Lichtenstein’s work than
“the reflective power that parodies possess in relation to their
subjects.“ Moreover, the author’s appreciation is reflected in
several positive statements regarding Lichtenstein’s work. The
author’s appreciation for Lichtenstein’s realism is indicated by
the author’s statement that “Beneath its cartoonish methods,
his work displayed an impulse toward realism, an urge to say
that what was missing from contemporary painting was the de piction of contemporary life.“ That the author also appreciates
Lichtenstein’s naivete is demonstrated in this sentence:
“Lichtenstein’s work exuded not a jaded cynicism about consumer
culture, but a kind of deliberate naivete....“ This idea is
further expanded in the next sentence, which says that “for all
their surface bravado,“ Lichtenstein’s paintings possess “an inner
sweetness.“ It is important to note that these evaluations
appear in the last paragraph and form part of the author's conclusion about the importance of Lichtenstein’s art. Response (A) is incorrect because, although in the last sentence of paragraph two the author notes Lichtenstein’s connection to a general rebellion against abstract expressionism, the author also states quite pointedly in the first sentence of paragraph three: “But if rebellion . . . were all that characterized Lichtenstein’s work, it would possess only the reflective power that parodies have....“
