A. It confuses the Olympic Committee’s selection criteria with the priorities of individual bid committees. There is no any noticeable confusion hence incorrect
B. It incorrectly treats City Y’s lack of hosting experience as direct evidence that it will not be selected to host the Olympics. Does not fully address the reasoning flaw
C. It overlooks the mere possibility that City Y might still be selected even if it hasn’t hosted a major event before. While this could be true, it is a weak choice as it does not address the flaw in reason
D. It relies on a similarity among previous outcomes without considering whether that similarity was essential to those outcomes. Correct directly points to the flaw
E. It takes for granted that cities that haven’t hosted sporting events are automatically uninterested in doing so. Out of scope
ANS D

The bid committee wrongly treats past observations as a requirement for winning, when in reality it might just be coincidence.
A is irrelevant. no mention of individual bid priorities. eliminate
B confuses the committee’s belief with a firm prediction. eliminate
C is wrong because the committee isn’t ignoring the possibility, just feels that their odds are low. eliminate
D seems right. they assume a pattern must be essential without checking if it really mattered. keep
E is out of scope. the city’s interest level isn’t part of the argument. eliminate

The correct answer is choice (D)
The reasoning assumes that due to the 5 previous years of information, the same outcome may occur. We want to look for an answer choice that accurately describes that.
A. It confuses the Olympic Committee’s selection criteria with the priorities of individual bid committees.
(this is unrelated to the reasoning and information presented)
B. It incorrectly treats City Y’s lack of hosting experience as direct evidence that it will not be selected to host the Olympics.
(this seems correct but the reasoning is based on an assumption and not direct evidence)
C. It overlooks the mere possibility that City Y might still be selected even if it hasn’t hosted a major event before.
(this is restating what is already in the information presented but not directly part of the reasoning)
D. It relies on a similarity among previous outcomes without considering whether that similarity was essential to those outcomes.
(this is the correct answer because it uses the language of relying on a similarity, such as using the 5 years of data and the outcome)
E. It takes for granted that cities that haven’t hosted sporting events are automatically uninterested in doing so.
