The prompt

Act as my CAT VARC practice partner. 1. Write one original reading comprehension passage of 450-550 words on [topic, e.g. economics of attention / philosophy of science / urban ecology], in the dense, argumentative style CAT passages use. It must be your own writing, not taken from any book or article. 2. Write 4 questions: main idea, inference, author's tone or attitude, and one 'which of these would weaken the argument' type. 4 options each, with close distractors. 3. Wait for my answers. Don't show the key yet. 4. After I answer: for each question, give the correct option, why it's right in 2-3 lines, and exactly why each wrong option fails (too broad, out of scope, distortion, opposite). 5. Tell me which mistake pattern I showed and one habit to fix it. Then ask if I want another passage at a harder level.
