Board member: The J Foundation, a philanthropic organization, gave you this grant on the condition that your resulting work not contain any material detrimental to the J Foundation’s reputation. But your resulting work never mentions any of the laudable achievements of our foundation. Hence your work fails to meet the conditions under which the grant was made.
The reasoning in the board member’s argument is vulnerable to criticism on the grounds that the argument
(A) takes for granted that a work that never mentions any laudable achievements cannot be of high intellectual value
(B) confuses a condition necessary for the receipt of a grant with a condition sufficient for the receipt of a grant
(C) presumes, without providing justification, that a work that does not mention a foundation’s laudable achievements is harmful to that foundation’s reputation
(D) fails to consider that recipients of a grant usually strive to meet a foundation’s conditions
(E) fails to consider the possibility that the work that was produced with the aid of the grant may have met all conditions other than avoiding detriment to the J Foundation’s reputation

Not praising somebody is NOT the same as harming somebody's reputation. The Grant recipient failed to praise The J Foundation, BUT that does not mean, that the recipient criticized or caused harm to The J foundations's reputation.
Lets scan the options looking for some thing similar.
(A) - Not according to what be are looking for. INCORRECT.
(B)-Not according to what be are looking for. INCORRECT.
(C) Exactly what we are looking for.CORRECT
(D) Not according to what be are looking for. INCORRECT.
(E) Clearly wrong -Not according to what be are looking for. INCORRECT.
Ans- C
Hope it's clear.

In spite of what answer B says, the argument does not confuse two different conditions, there is only one condition that work cannot be detrimental to foundation. If to mention laudable achievements of foundation stated as a condition by the argument than answer B would be correct. So the problem here that board member consider not mentioning the achievements a detrimental factor to the foundation automatically without justification.
