Drag this model answer map onto your workspace to reveal an explanation of each step in the evaluation:
If you've read Shakespeare's play 'Macbeth' then you should agree that he was respected by others: in Act 1 he is praised several times. If you haven't read the play you should select 'Hmmm' for the main premise, to show you're reserving judgment until more information is available. This would also be an acceptable answer for Exercise 1.
We suspend judgment rather than accepting or rejecting the position a single failed objection doesn't tell us anything about how to decide whether the position is good.
