This is from a book talking about how to approach GRE argument essay.
General Strategies
a) Restate the issue in a way that makes sense to you.
b) You could also determine what question is being answered by the statement. Creating a question may help you determine your position on the issue. If someone were to ask you this question, would you say yes, no, or maybe?
c) Next, create a statement that expresses the opposing viewpoint, using language similar to that of the original statement.
d) Think about alternative viewpoints. Is there another way to look at this issue? Can you qualify the original recommendation in some way? How can you answer all or some of the questions that you generated earlier?
What does "qualify" mean in that sentence?
Thanks.
