On Fridays in July, the Schick family always goes to the pool, unless it rains or the temperature forecast is higher than 95 degrees Fahrenheit. If they do not go to the pool, they either visit the museum or go to the movie theater. When choosing between the museum or a movie, if there are no new movie releases on a particular weekend, they go to the museum. Where did they go on the last Friday in July?
(1) It rained on the last Friday in July.
(2) On the last Friday in July, the forecasted temperature was 96 degrees Fahrenheit, and there was a new movie released that weekend.

I think it is Option B.
Statement 1: It rained on the last Friday in July.
This statement doesn't clarify if there were any new movies released or not. This only tells us that they did not go to the pool. Hence, insufficient.
Statement 2: On the last Friday in July, the forecasted temperature was 96 degrees Fahrenheit, and there was a new movie released that weekend.
This statement tells us that they did not go to the pool and they did not go to the movies. Hence sufficient.

Bunuel
(1) It rained on the last Friday in July.
This rules out the pool, but we still do not know whether it was the movie or museum.
INSUFF.
(2) On the last Friday in July, the forecasted temperature was 96 degrees Fahrenheit, and there was a new movie released that weekend.
Very tempting to mark B.
The premise tells us where they will go in case there is no new movie, but this does not automatically mean that if there is a new movie, they will go to the movie.
Let’s say a new mummy was just unearthed, and it is due to leave for the Cairo Museum the next day. It will be kept in the museum only for today. The movie could be caught next Friday too or even streamed at home. So in this case, would they still go to the movie? Not likely.
Hence, assuming that if there is a new movie, they will compulsorily go to the new movie is not so accurate—at least from a GMAT perspective.
Unless the premise specifically mentions what they will do in case there is a new movie, we cannot choose this option
INSUFF.
1+2
Since none of the options precisely tell us, what the family will do in case there is a new movie, both the statements are insuff.
INSUFF.
Ans E.
Hope it helped.
