In a debate regarding solutions to the rising costs of health care, several points of view are communicated. In order to make an informed decision about the issues, what should a consumer do?

A. This answer is too absolute. While the teacher’s reasoning suggests a likely outcome (if one child stops, the others might collide), it does not guarantee that all children will fall down, as there could be variations in the children's reactions or the space between them. Therefore, the claim doesn’t must be true.

B. This option suggests that the claim is likely false, which isn’t accurate. The scenario presented by the teacher seems plausible, so it’s more likely true, though it’s not guaranteed.

C. The statement could be true, as the reasoning is based on the children’s positions and actions. There is no reason to completely rule it out, so this answer is incorrect.

D. This is the most reasonable conclusion. The teacher’s statement is based on an assumption that if one child stops, the others will not be able to avoid collision. This is a reasonable assumption in this context, but it’s not certain—there might be enough space or a difference in the children's reactions that prevents them from all falling. Thus, it’s likely true, but not guaranteed.

A. If people buy a boat, they should seek rest and relaxation.: This is not equivalent to the original statement. The original statement emphasizes that only those who seek rest and relaxation should buy a boat, whereas this suggests that everyone who buys a boat should seek rest and relaxation, which isn't the same idea.

B. People can only find rest and relaxation by buying a boat.: This changes the meaning. The original statement doesn't suggest that buying a boat is the only way to find rest and relaxation—it just says that buying a boat is suitable for those who are seeking rest and relaxation.

C. If people want rest and relaxation, they should buy a boat.: This reverses the logic of the original statement. The original implies a restriction—only people who are seeking rest and relaxation should buy a boat, whereas this statement suggests that anyone who wants rest and relaxation should buy a boat.

D. People should not buy a boat unless they want rest and relaxation.: This correctly captures the logic of the original statement. It asserts that buying a boat is only appropriate for people who are looking for rest and relaxation, which aligns perfectly with the phrasing of the original statement.
