Reasoning and Logic in The Riddle of the Rosetta Stone

Question 8 • DAEP-English 7 A(20 Day Term)

Which answer choice shows the most logical reasoning?

Answer
A
Facts: Chefs wear a hat to work. Jorge wears a hat to work. Conclusion: Jorge must be a chef.
B
Facts: Students must take Algebra I before they can take Algebra II. Dara is currently taking Algebra II. Conclusion: Dara has taken Algebra I in the past.
C
Facts: People who have a healthy lifestyle can lose weight. Brian lost weight. Conclusion: Brian is on a diet.
D
Facts: All islands have beaches. California has beaches. Conclusion: California must be an island.

Explanation

The rule says that students must take Algebra I before taking Algebra II. Since Dara is currently taking Algebra II, she must already have taken Algebra I. The other choices reverse a one-way relationship: wearing a hat, losing weight, or having beaches does not prove that someone belongs to a particular group or place.
