PT1.S4.Q24 - a society in which there are

Michelle H.

The answer for this question is E. I don't think any of the answers really have a logic structure that parallels to that of the stimulus. For the stimulus I got:

CA--> P
CA some MR
therefore, P some MR

For E I got:
SP some TP
SO some TP
therefore SO --> SP

I won't exactly say they are parallel, though E is the closest answer I guess.
Any thoughts on this?

"since" reveals the conclusion to be

SP some P

the remaining are all premises:

SO some P
and
SO ----> SP

Organized in this manner allows it to match the stim perfectly

As @Freddy_D says, "since" introduces the premise. So (E) can be diagrammed like this

(E)
SO —> SP
SO <-s->TP
——
SP <-s-> TP

Stimulus says:

CA —> P
CA <-s-> MR
——
P <-s-> MR

It matches (E) perfectly.
