A
the relationship between being a criminal and being a rabbit is not of the same kind as that between being suspected and being gray
Like (B), the analogy rests on the relationship between being a gray rabbit and a rabbit, as analogized to the relationship between being a suspected criminal and a criminal. The relationships between being a criminal and a rabbit or being suspected and being gray are irrelevant.
B
the relationship between being suspected and being a rabbit is not of the same kind as that between being gray and being a criminal
Like (A), the analogy rests on the relationship between being a gray rabbit and a rabbit, as analogized to the relationship between being a suspected criminal and a criminal. The relationships described in (B) are irrelevant.
C
the relationship between being a gray rabbit and being a rabbit is not of the same kind as that between being a suspected criminal and being a criminal
All gray rabbits are rabbits, but not all suspected criminals are criminals. So the author’s argument relies on analogizing between two kinds of relationships that are not relevantly similar. One is a subset vs. superset relationship and the other is not.
D
not all rabbits are gray
This is true, but it doesn’t describe the flaw in the author’s argument. She claims that all gray rabbits are rabbits; this allows for the fact that some rabbits are not gray.
E
not all criminals are suspected
This is true, but it doesn’t describe the flaw in the author’s argument. She claims that all suspected criminals are criminals; this allows for the fact that some criminals are not suspected.
