Opposition leader: In recent years the price of petrol in our country has risen dramatically. Clearly, the government has failed to control inflation, for which the people now must pay the price.
Minister: Our government has made an unprecedented claim to reduce the consumption of fossil fuels. High petrol prices speed up the process of conversion to greener fuels such as natural gas and electricity.
The Minister responds to the opposition leader’s claim by doing which of the following?
A) Pointing out a logical flaw in the opposition leader’s argument
B) Creating an anecdotal parallel where the leader’s argument fails to stand.
C) Highlighting a consideration ignored by the leader
D) Pointing out short term benefits of the leader’s argument
E) Negating a factual claim made by the leader.

Hi, I don't see why C is the answer.
I chose B. And 100% of the answers have been B as well.

B sounds awkward because it mentions "anecdotal parallel", conversion to greener fuels is not an anecdotal parallel it is an objective by the government. Otherwise, B is a strong contender.
