So, this is not super similar to GMAT questions, but I'm also an LSAT tutor, so what the hell.
The pattern of this question is: If this, therefore that. That, therefore this. This is not necessarily true.
CDE are knocked out because of NOT. A is a simple (correct) syllogism. B follows the same pattern: If sinusitis, lost smell. Lost smell, therefore sinusitis.
