No, they are not made for confusion...they're to see if you REALLY know the rule.
If it says "never/always", look for an exception. If you can find one, it's false. Those are the easy ones.
If it says "may"...it is asking if they are allowed to do something...not required, but allowed.
If it says "shall", it is a requirment. If it is not required, this would be false.
Really, it comes down to knowing things that are always/never versus things that have exceptions and knowing what is optional/permitted versus required. Those are exactly the things the test is trying to detemrine. Once you know those, making a rules-based call on a play becomes easy.
