A. The first is an inference; the second is a fact contrary to the first. -- First is a premise which is always true. Not an inference. Also second is the conclusion as seen from the marker 'Thus'. So incorrect.
B. The first is a piece of evidence; the second is a conclusion which is based on evidence which contradicts the first. -- Evidence is incorrect. Also this the conclusion but not contradicts the first. Incorrect.
C. The first is a fact; the second is a conclusion which is based on the first and additional evidence. -- Premise is a fact which is always true. The second is the conclusion based on the premise (fact) and the next sentence as evidence. Correct
D. The first is an assumption; the second is a conclusion based both on fact and on the first. -- Assumption is a no no. This is a fact. Incorrect.
E. The first is an opinion; the second is an inference based on the first. -- Not an opinion but a fact and second is the conclusion not an inference. Incorrect
B. The first is a piece of evidence; the second is a conclusion which is based on evidence which contradicts the first. -- Evidence is incorrect. Also this the conclusion but not contradicts the first. Incorrect.
