Incentives help drive passionate employees to be more focused

Incentives help drive passionate employees to be more focused, more productive, and provide more work output within a stipulated time. Therefore, in order to maximize the work output from its employees and therefore maximize the profits generated within a year, every company should incorporate an incentive based goal setting process to drive the employees more.

First bold face is a given situation where employees feel more motivated and productive when are rewarded with incentives, because if there is no incentive the chances of their motivation decreases as well. Hence it cannot be a principle, because it won't change in any condition, nor an end result.

Second Bold statement is supporting the statement one so that the company can get maximum out of the given situation or a recommendation to do so is been made.

Only statement C is satisfying the condition. Hence answer is C

The first boldface is a general principal stated by the author.
Th second boldface is a conclusion derived from the first boldface.

A. The first is a principle that the argument seeks to explain; the second is evidence to support a proposal.
- 1st part is ok. Second part is the conclusion, and not any evidence to support the 1st boldface. Incorrect.
B. The first is a circumstance that supports the position taken by the argument, the second is that position.
- Correct. This is the answer
C. The first is a judgement that is not questioned by the argument; the second is a recommendation that disputes that judgement.
- 1st part is Ok. 2nd, however, doesn't dispute the first. Incorrect.
D. The first is a principle that the argument seeks to establish; the second is a circumstance on which that principle is based.
- 1st part is OK. 2nd, however, is not a circumstance on which 1st is based. Infact, 2nd is based on the 1st. Incorrect.
E. The first is an observation that is used to suggest a recommendation; the second is evidence that supports that recommendation.
- 1st part is OK. 2nd, however, is not an evidence. Incorrect.

Boldfaced statement #1: Incentives help drive passionate employees to be more focused, more productive, and provide more work output within a stipulated time.

Boldfaced statement #2: every company should incorporate an incentive based goal setting process to drive the employees more.


A. The first is a principle that the argument seeks to explain; the second is evidence to support a proposal. - the second boldfaced statement is not an evidence, but is itself the proposal.

B. The first is a circumstance that supports the position taken by the argument, the second is that position. - the first boldfaced statement highlights the benefits of offering incentives, while the second boldfaced statement is a proposal that is based on the first boldfaced statement. This school of thought is perfectly reflected in (B). Hence, (B) is the right answer choice.

C. The first is a judgement that is not questioned by the argument; the second is a recommendation that disputes that judgement. - the second boldfaced statement does not dispute the first.

D. The first is a principle that the argument seeks to establish; the second is a circumstance on which that principle is based. - the first boldfaced statement is not based on the second; rather, it is the vice-versa that is true. Moreover, the argument does not ''seek to establish'' the first boldfaced statement.

E. The first is an observation that is used to suggest a recommendation; the second is evidence that supports that recommendation. - the second boldfaced statement is not an evidence but rather the recommendation itself.
