Wouldn't this question be an argument? I did this problem and made the conclusion that this is an argument with the first sentence being the conclusion.

Hi @Kahanding, thanks for your question. You are correct that this stimulus presents an argument. The conclusion is: "It is clear that none of the volleyball players at yesterday's beach party came to work today . . ." Two premises are given in support: "since everyone who played volleyball at that party got badly sunburned" and "no one at work today is even slightly sunburned."
The question stem establishes that this is Parallel Reasoning question. You are asked to select the answer that parallels the reasoning exhibited in the stimulus. This is answer choice (D).
