Letter to the editor: I was shocked to learn that Judge Mosston was convicted of criminal assault, but I disagree with my fellow citizens who believe that he should be forced to resign. I have played cards with Judge Mosston for many years, and he has always shown himself to be fair toward me and our fellow cardplayers. Our judicial system simply cannot afford to lose any just and fair judges.
Which one of the following most accurately expresses the main conclusion of the letter writer's argument?
(A) Judge Mosston is a fair judge.
(B) Judge Mosston should not be forced to resign.
(C) Fairness is the most important quality in a judge.
(D) A conviction for criminal assault is never sufficient grounds for damaging anyone's professional career.
(E) Individuals who have interacted with a judge outside that judge's courtroom are the most objective assessors of that judge's fairness.

context: the author acknowledges the assault conviction but argues against the public’s demand for resignation, using personal experience as support.
prethinking: main conclusion = what the author is trying to convince us of (not the supporting reason about fairness).
elimination:
A: this is a supporting claim (based on card games), not the main point → no
B: this matches the claim being argued for — he disagrees with forcing resignation → yes
C: not stated or argued → no
D: too extreme; author never generalizes about all assault convictions → no
E: not discussed → no
answer: B

Which one of the following most accurately expresses the main conclusion of the letter writer's argument?
The writer is arguing against the view that Judge Mosston should be forced to resign. The claims about playing cards with him and about the need to keep fair judges are offered as support. The main conclusion is the writer’s position that Judge Mosston should not be forced to resign.
(A) Judge Mosston is a fair judge.
Wrong. This is a supporting claim, not the main conclusion.
(B) Judge Mosston should not be forced to resign.
Correct. This is the central point the writer is trying to prove.
(C) Fairness is the most important quality in a judge.
Wrong. The writer values fairness, but does not claim it is the most important quality.
(D) A conviction for criminal assault is never sufficient grounds for damaging anyone's professional career.
Wrong. This is far too broad. The argument is only about Judge Mosston.
(E) Individuals who have interacted with a judge outside that judge's courtroom are the most objective assessors of that judge's fairness.
Wrong. The writer relies on personal experience, but does not make this general claim.

OE for reference:
Overview:
The letter writer concludes that Judge Mosston should not be forced to resign and offers two considerations that, taken together, are supposed to support that conclusion. First, within the circle of people he plays cards with, Judge Mosston has always shown himself to be fair. Second, the judicial system cannot afford to spare any just and fair judges.
The Correct Answer:
B The letter writer expresses disagreement with the belief that Judge Mosston should be forced to resign. The other statements in the letter are offered in support of this position. Thus the letter as a whole is directed to establishing the conclusion that Judge Mosston should not be forced to resign.
The Incorrect Answer Choices:
A The letter writer apparently does implicitly conclude that Judge Mosston is a fair judge. But this conclusion is not the main conclusion of the argument. Rather, it is part of the letter writer's support for the main conclusion—that Judge Mosston should not be forced to resign.
C The letter writer clearly takes fairness to be an important quality in a judge but gives no indication of taking it to be the single most important quality. In any event, the letter writer's argument is not directed toward the issue of how important fairness is in a judge. It is directed toward whether Judge Mosston should be forced to resign.
D The letter writer's argument is concerned with the impact of a conviction for criminal assault on a specific career, not with the broader question of what impact on professional careers such a conviction should have, in general.
E The letter writer does refer to interactions with Judge Mosston outside the courtroom and does assess the judge's fairness on the basis of those interactions. However, the argument is not directed to whether the letter writer's assessment is objective, and even less to the issue of what kinds of individuals, in general, can most objectively assess a judge's fairness.
