Question 1
Answer: B
It really comes down to options B and E. It is certainly possible that the author does believe that E is true. However, it comes down to a balancing exercise - which one is more accurate? With this thinking it is relatively clear that the criticism levied is targeted at their lack of objectivity rather than them being 'undeserving of credit' being a focal point in the argument. The author certainly does not think that what they wrote is unimpressive, but he is critical of their philosophy for purporting to be objective (i.e., not influenced by their material situation and context) while clearly – in the author’s view – actually being almost wholly informed by their own personal experiences.
Question 2
Answer: C
Option B is clearly not true of Hobbes and option D is not mentioned or inferred anywhere within the text. Option A is more convincing but still incorrect (Locke does not wish for acquisition, it is too strong a word), as is E which feels correct (though, it becomes apparent on closer inspection that Hobbes does not require fairness from his Sovereign). Option C is ascertainable - working out that this is true of Locke is the difficulty. This text is dealt with in the lecture series on the Law Admissions Academy website.
Question 3
Answer: D
Some people will struggle with this and others will have spotted the trick immediately. Locke called for revolution in certain circumstances and there is no evidence within the text that he wanted an actual, real revolution there and then. Perhaps option B is more convincing than the other incorrect answers, though D is a clear winner for this single reason.
Question 4
Answer: B
Painfully time consuming... there is little to say on this other than that you should try and identify these kinds of questions prior to your first reading. That way you can make a mental note of where they are prior to answering the question, hopefully it'll save you a few precious seconds!
