1. On a smooth road, shock absorber pistons move back and forth about 15 times a second. Fact- this is something that can be proven to be true (or not).<\/div>\r\n

2. A car's ignition is a rat's nest of wires.<\/div>\r\n
Judgment- giving the complexity of the wires a negative perspective.<\/div>\r\n
<\/div>\r\n
3.\u00a0Metallurgy is essential knowledge for someone responsible for doing theoretical research in steel.<\/div>\r\n
Inference- based on past experience, this seems true, but with new technology, someone may be able to do everything solely through machines.<\/div>\r\n
4.\u00a0The shop foreman is a considerate person.<\/div>\r\n

5.\u00a0Diagrams in this technical report show the parts of a door hinge.<\/div>\r\n
Fact- you can see it.<\/div>\r\n
6.\u00a0Metal replacement parts are used in the human body.<\/div>\r\n
Fact- I don\u2019t not if this is true, but I can find out.<\/div>\r\n

Perhaps a trick question- Perhaps there are different levels of hardness, but the levels are hard just the same. This should be a fact.<\/div>","rendered":"
