Question

1. which statement presents a reasonable conclusion?

○ if more fans do not support the football team, our team will always lose.
○ our football team needs sufficient equipment to practice and play safely.
○ the football team needs good players because they are a good team.

Explanation:

The first option uses circular reasoning (claiming the team is good to justify needing good players). The third option makes an absolute, unreasonable prediction (fans not guaranteeing a win does not mean "always lose"). The second option presents a logical, reasonable conclusion: sufficient equipment directly supports safe practice and play, a clear, rational link between the need and its purpose.

Answer:

B. Our football team needs sufficient equipment to practice and play safely.
