To be accepted as a member at the Brown Country Club, one must have a net worth of over ten million dollars and must not have any connections to the entertainment industry. Robert Chase, the publishing magnate, has a net worth of 5 billion dollars and chase has not financed any Hollywood movies, so he must be accepted as a member at the Brown Country Club.
The two portions in boldface play which of the following roles?
(A) The first is the part of evidence in support of this argument; the second is the conclusion that could not be drawn from all evidence that the argument contains.
(B) The first is the first-evidence that supports this argument; the second is the mainpoint that must be drawn from all evidence that the argument includes.
(C) The first is the one fact of two that argument includes; the second is the conclusion that could be drawn from this passage.
(D) The first is the background that is necessary for this argument; the second is the conclusion that is not drawn only from the first.
(E) The first is the cause that the argument includes; the second is the effect that can be drawn only from this cause.

Looks good. Not financing movies does not refer to no connections(B) The first is the first-evidence that supports this argument; the second is the mainpoint that must be drawn from all evidence that the argument includes.
must be drawn cannot be true in this case(C) The first is the one fact of two that argument includes; the second is the conclusion that could be drawn from this passage.
this could be one of the possibilities but the argument does not make it certain(D) The first is the background that is necessary for this argument; the second is the conclusion that is not drawn only from the first.
Background is the opening sentence of the argument(E) The first is the cause that the argument includes; the second is the effect that can be drawn only from this cause.[/quote]
Not a cause and effect scenarioIMHO Option A
