Jones: Bob is a superb athlete. So he is qualified for admission to the HF.
Smith: Conclusion: Bod should not be admitted to HF. This means that even though he is qualified, he should mot be admitted.
Premises: Bob used illegal drag. Bod is a poor role model for young people.
Assumption: since Bob is qualified candidate for HF, there must be a well explanation for why Bod cannot be admitted.
(A) Superb athletes usually do not use illegal drugs. - might be true. but this general statement cannot explain why Bod cannot be admitted. There must be at least 1 or more cases that superb athletes use illegal drugs. still, there is not tie between using illegal drug and getting admitted. Hence wrong.
(B) Bob is interested in being admitted to the Hall of Fame. - Out of scope. His interest cannot explain the reason why he should or should not be admitted.
(C) Bob's use of illegal drugs has had a negative effect on his athletic performance. - Out of scope.
(D) Being an adequate role model for young people should be one of the criteria for admission to the Hall of Fame.
Right. This answer tells us that even though Bob is a qualified candidate, he can be rejected due to one of the criteria for admission to HF.
(E) All athletes who are good role models for young people are qualified for admission to the Hall of Fame. - from Jones's argument we know that Bob is a qualified athlete, and E cannot give us a reason for Bob's admission result. Hence, E is wrong.
