Hey Panda,
The stimulus tells us :A term paper
class presentation.
The contrapositive of this is: class presentation A term paper
However, this is not the same as: A term paper class presenation, which is what the conclusion incorrectly says. We want an answer choice that captures that error.
Answer choice (D), as you pointed out, is the correct contrapositive of the stimulus' logic, but this is a flaw question, meaning we need to identify the flaw in the author's argument. Answer choice (D) is not a flaw, so this cannot be correct.
Make sure you are considering the question type you're trying to answer and what the correct answer will do - that's why paraphrasing before reading the answer choices can be helpful.
Hope that helps!
