The movie Zed Square has received critical acclaim as well as mass appreciation as it has broken all yesteryears' records at the box office as well as at each of the major movie award ceremonies. It is ironical, however, that the two lead actors and the head director are the only ones who seem to be getting all the credit for the masterpiece. True, they did full justice to their roles and if it were not for their performances, the movie would not have achieved such path-breaking success. However, imagine what the movie would have been if it had outdated special effects, incoherent background score, poor editing, or shabby cinematography? Clearly, the media must do more to pass the credit to the talented contributors who are away from the limelight.

In the argument given, the two portions in boldface play which of the following roles?

a) The first is a finding that the argument as a whole seeks to discuss; the second is evidence that calls that finding into question.

b) The first is a finding that the argument as a whole seeks to discuss; the second is a consideration that has been used to support the main conclusion of the argument.

c) The first is a claim that the argument as a whole seeks to evaluate; the second is a judgment that calls the claim into question.

d) The first is the main conclusion of the argument; the second is evidence that calls the conclusion into question.

e) Both first and second are evidence that have been used to support the main conclusion of the argument
