Teachers should not do anything to cause their students to lose respect for them. And students can sense when someone is trying to hide his or her ignorance. Therefore, a teacher who does not know the answer to a question a student has asked should not pretend to know the answer.

The conclusion is properly drawn if which one of the following is assumed?
premise-Teachers should not do anything to cause their students to lose respect for them. And students can sense when someone is trying to hide his or her ignorance
conclusion- a teacher who does not know the answer to a question a student has asked should not pretend to know the answer.

(A) A teacher cannot be effective unless he or she retains the respect of students.-out of scope

(B) Students respect honesty above all else.-out of scope

(C) Students’ respect for a teacher is independent of the amount of knowledge they attribute to that teacher.-WEAKENS the argument

(D) Teachers are able to tell when students respect them.-Out of scope

(E) Students lose respect for teachers whenever they sense that the teachers are trying to hide their ignorance.-[color=#ff0000]Correct answer connects the teachers knowledge with students respect [/color]
