Physical education should teach people to pursue healthy, active lifestyles as they grow older. But the focus on competitive sports in most schools causes most of the less competitive students to turn away from sports. Having learned to think of themselves as unathletic, they do not exercise enough to stay healthy.

Summary
Physical education should teach people to pursue healthy lifestyles. But focusing on competitive sports causes most of the less competitive students not to pursue sports. This results in these students not exercising enough to stay healthy.

Strongly Supported Conclusions
noncompetitive activities should be taught in physical education.

This answer is unsupported. We don’t know from the stimulus whether competition causes most students to turn away. We only know that competition causes most non-competitive students to turn away.
C
People who are talented at competitive physical endeavors exercise regularly.
This answer is unsupported. The stimulus doesn’t address the group of students that excel at competitive sports.
D
The mental aspects of exercise are as important as the physical ones.
This answer is unsupported. We don’t know from the stimulus what aspects of exercise are important.
