SDCAR2010【逻辑入门】（三）Main Point

请问一下，这道题怎么分析吖？
26.When a polygraph test is judged inconclusive, this is no reflection on the examinee. Rather, such a
judgment means that the test has failed to show whether the examinee was truthful or untruthful.
Nevertheless, employers will sometimes refuse to hire a job applicant because of an inconclusive
polygraph test result.
Which of the following conclusions can most properly be drawn from the information above?

答案是：An inconclusive polygraph test result is sometimes unfairly held against the examinee. （我知道这个选项是对的，但是不知道怎么按sdcar说的分析）

题干里，哪些是premise，还是也有opposing opinon等？？

第三题的文章意思和结构我觉得我都懂了，但问题和答案看得我云里雾里。真心挠头!我来梳理一下，或者翻译一下，我只能理解这么多了。请大家帮我指正下。多谢多谢

当前上演的戏剧LF创作于18世纪。导演认为该剧尽可能地体现了最初的样子或风格。尽管饰演丑角的男演员的表演与20世纪美国喜剧大师GM颇为相似，但GM的风格是的始于16世纪意大利的传统戏剧风格。

该讨论作为论据最能支持that:
A 现代观众很难接受那种按照历史原貌展现的18世纪戏剧的风格特点---压根没提
B GM曾在LF中饰演H角色---肯定不对
C 在美国，20世纪男演员的培养的原则与18世纪意大利的没有太大不同----无从得知
D 在LF中饰演H的男演员的表演没有作为论据反驳导演的观点
E LF的导演一定建议饰演H的男演员模仿GM的表演----无从得知，像未必就是被导演建议了

dear sdcar you said the argument must include at least one premise and one conclusion, but in this argument you have marked, it seems that the argument does not include the premise. just opinion, opposing opinion, conclusion. so iam very confused, please help me!

1) As one who has always believed that truth is our nation’s surest weapon in the propaganda war against our foes, I am distressed by reports of “disinformation” campaigns by American intelligence agents in Western Europe (opinion). In a disinformation campaign, untruths are disseminated through gullible local journalists in order to damage the interests of our enemies and protect our own (background). Those who defend this practice say that lying is necessary to counter Soviet disinformation campaigns aimed at damaging America’s political interests. These apologists contend that one must fight fire with fire (opposing opinion). I would point out to the apologists that the fire department finds water more effective (main conclusion).

The author’s main point is that

(A) Although disinformation campaigns may be effective, they are unacceptable on ethical grounds
(B) America’s moral standing in the world depends on its adherence to the truth
(C) The temporary political gains produced by disinformation campaigns generally give way to long-term losses
(D) Soviet disinformation campaigns have done little to damage America’s standing in Europe
(E) Disinformation campaigns do not effectively serve the political interests of the United States

As highlighted above, the flow of the argument is Author's opinion, Background, opposing opinion, conclusion. I should point out the way the main conclusion iis presented is pretty unusual by using a figurative language. If you compare the opposing opinion with the author's conclusion, you would notice that effectively, the author proclaims that the opposing's opinion is wrong. And if you negate the opposing opinion, you would get the main conclusion, which states in choice E).
