[When you do the numbering, you do not have to state the numbered statements verbatim; you might find it helpful to shorten the statement while capturing its import.]
b) Develop the argument in the passage through an arrow diagram. You will be graded on your ability to identify the premises, the intermediate and the final conclusion of the argument; and on your ability to illustrate the structure of the argument.
