If you mean breaking down the argument into particular elements, then it should take you as little time as possible. The whole question should take you a little less than 2 minutes. So taking very brief notes on the text should take about 30-40 seconds. Reading the question and answer choices should also be very prompt. Otherwise, you will not have enough time to think about the answer.
