10. Because political behaviour is generally determined by publicity considerations opposing parties often take issue with the government even if the latter acts in accordance with the principles advocated by the opposition. For this reason, many parties are not fair representatives of their electorate because only a party that consistently upholds its position can be regarded as such. A leader of the National Democratic Party (NDP) asserts that although his party often disputed governmental actions it remained faithful to its political doctrine and goes on to conclude that NDP is thus a fair representative of its electorate. This claim is logically fallacious because NDP has failed to fulfil another important requirement: maintain active communication with its voters.

B it is.
Here is why.
A: the first mentions a condition necessary for holding a status; the second states that this condition is not fulfilled in the case at issue
> WRONG. The second bolded part clearly states that "another important requirement", meaning there was that some condition was not fulfilled.
B: the first mentions a condition sufficient for holding a status; the second states that some condition necessary for holding a status is not fulfilled in the case at issue
> RIGHT. The second bolded part does say that "another important requirement" has not been met, and therefore the case does not make the cut. Therefore this condition mentioned is NECESSARY.
C: the first mentions a condition sufficient for holding a status; the second states that this condition is necessary in the case at issue
> WRONG. Same as A.
D: the first mentions a condition necessary for holding a status; the second states that this condition is not sufficient in the case at issue
> WRONG. Same as A and C
E: the first mentions a condition necessary for holding a status; the second states that some condition sufficient for holding a status is not fulfilled in the case at issue
> Very close to B, but note the word "sufficient". In fact the NDP case does not make the cut because the condition is Necessary.

B is my answer too, E comes close..but E denotes taht the second conditon alone is sufficient..but the question says another condition is necessary too....
