For those who chose C, you guys made a serious mistake. Based on your reasoning, C supports argument because you infer that fund-raisers did not do a good job when C is true. Let me ask you: if C can tell you that, the information provided by the argument will be useless. In other words, we do not need information in the argument to prove the conclusion. A is correct because it points out that had the fundraisers covered the same ground, the result will not be as good. Let me give you one simple example: For Tom and Tim both pick strawberries. Tom picked a lot more than Tim. However, Tim argues that Tom only picked strawberries in field A, where more strawberries grow than filed B, where Tim also harvested. How to support? We can say Tom would have picked the same amount of strawberries in field B as Tim did. This will show that Tom might have only worked in field A. |
