People often claim to be honest only when it is convenient for them, and they tend to define what is “right” based on prevailing social opinions rather than personal moral judgment. For example, individuals may support a cause simply because a popular social group endorses it, even though the group’s leaders can later reshape or reinterpret the original stance to suit their own interests. Therefore, it is essential that people base their beliefs on their own moral principles rather than uncritically accepting what influential voices in society promote.
In the argument above, the two boldfaced portions play which of the following roles?
A. The first presents an example illustrating a common social behavior; the second states the author’s main conclusion.
B. The first introduces a claim that weakens a social movement; the second proposes an alternative explanation for that weakness.
C. The first provides evidence supporting the conclusion; the second qualifies that evidence by limiting its scope.
D. The first describes a hypothetical scenario; the second rejects that scenario as unrealistic.
E. The first states the main conclusion of the argument; the second offers a recommendation that contradicts it.

Step 3: Options
A. First = example ✅ | Second = main conclusion ✅ → MATCH
B. Talks about weakening a movement ❌ → irrelevant
C. First = evidence ❌ (too generic; this is clearly an example, GMAT distinguishes)
D. Hypothetical ❌
E. First = main conclusion ❌
Final Answer:
A
Tiny takeaway
“For example” → almost always example
“Therefore” → conclusion (don’t overthink)
