Complete Question Explanation
Main Point. The correct answer choice is (C)
Answer choice (A): The author admits that Hogan fully realized
his actions and the author asks that “Hogan’s actions not be wholly
condemned.” Both of these statements are counter to the idea that Hogan
should not be considered responsible for Winter’s injuries.
Answer choice (B): The only reference to the robber is that Hogan
mistakenly believed that Winters was the robber. Thus, there is no
evidence in the stimulus to support this answer.
Answer choice (C): This correct answer is a paraphrase of the conclusion
of the argument.
Answer choice (D): According to the information in the stimulus, this
answer must be true. Regardless, the answer is still incorrect because it
fails to summarize the author’s main point. This type of answer—one that
is true but misses the main point—is frequently featured as an incorrect
answer in Main Point questions.
Answer choice (E): Like answer choice (D), this statement is true
according to the stimulus. But, it is incorrect because it does not capture
the main point.
