D for me.
a. The chairman believes that
all those who have demanded his resignation are motivated by desire to control the corporation for their own purposes. [all , never stated that every one has desire]
b. Any misdeeds that the chairman may have committed were motivated by his desire to enhance the success of the corporation. [not relevant]
c. The chairman is innocent of any criminal offence. [Court still didnot find that he is guilty doesnot mean he is innocent]
d. The corporation has expanded steadily over the past six years. [sounds good to me]
e. Any legal proceedings against the chairman have resulted in his acquittal. [not yet concluded]
Please explain options.
Here is how I did:
a. Restates a fact in the argument. No conclusion.
b. Explains why he might have acted -
my choice.
c. Beyond scope - "innocent of
any criminal offense".
d. Restates a fact.
e. Nothing is mentioned about his aquittal. Can't infer.
OA is D.
