The relationship between money and the things it allows one to purchase is like that between a tool and the tasks it enables its user to accomplish. Therefore, since tools are useless if there is no task that needs to be done, _______.
Summary
The relationship between money and purchases is comparable to the relationship between tools and tasks. Tools are useless if there is no task to be done.
Strongly Supported Conclusions
Therefore, money is useless when there is nothing to purchase.
A
money should be thought of as no more useful than a tool
This answer is unsupported. The stimulus does not make a value judgment regarding how we should or should not think of money. Rather, the stimulus makes the comparison between money and tools as a matter of fact.
B
any tool that enables its user to accomplish a task is valuable
This answer is unsupported. To say that this statement would be true of any tool is too extreme. Moreover, we don’t know from the stimulus the value of tools, we only know about the usefulness of tools.
C
money is valueless in a world where nothing is for sale
This answer is strongly supported. Since tools are useless if there are no tasks, then similarly money is valueless when there is nothing to purchase.
D
money should be regarded as a tool rather than a commodity
This answer is unsupported. The stimulus does not make a value judgment regarding how we should or should not think of money. Rather, the stimulus makes the comparison between money and tools as a matter of fact.
E
the value of money derives from the tasks it allows one to accomplish
This answer is unsupported. The stimulus is making an analogy between money and tools. This statement does not complete the analogy.
