Main goal of most middle school students is to be viewed as popular by their classmates.
Students who seek to be popular will only take as friends other students who share the goal of achieving popularity
Any middle school students who strive to impress their teachers will not make friends with most of their classmates.
Assumption:
A. achieving popularity is often not done by a single individual, but rather by a group of children.
Irrelevant.
B. middle school students do not regard as popular anyone who strives to impress a teacher.
"Being popular" is irrelevant to the argument. We are talking about "students whose goal is to be popular".
The argument only talks about students wanting to be friends with those whose goal is to be popular too. What actual popular students do, we don't know or care.
C. a student can impress a teacher by not fraternizing with the popular crowd of students.
Irrelevant how one can impress a teacher.
D. most middle school children believe that those who strive to impress a teacher do not have the goal of achieving popularity.
Correct. If children believe that those who strive to impress a teacher do not have a goal of popularity, they will not become friends with those who strive to impress the teacher. Hence, those who strive to impress the teacher will not make friends with most kids.
E. middle school students are known to be particularly cruel to classmates that are considered different from the norm.
Irrelevant.
