Must be TrueDiff: Hard

Logic Breakdown

Passage Summary: True courage is defined by two things: having a goal and pushing through fear of danger. Risk-taking for fun doesn't count.

Reasoning: Courage requires acting toward a goal while persevering through fear of danger; doing something dangerous just for pleasure is not courage.

Analysis: Since this is a 'Must be True' question, we must treat the definitions provided as absolute rules. Courage has two necessary conditions: a goal and fear/danger. If either is missing, courage is not present. Furthermore, the text explicitly excludes 'pleasure-seeking' as a sufficient motive for courage. Look for an answer that applies these rules strictly, likely by identifying a scenario that fails to meet one of these requirements and thus cannot be called courage.

Which one of the following statements can be properly inferred from the statements above?

Correct Answer
D
Acting to benefit others is acting to attain a goal. The definition says real courage exists only when one perseveres in the face of fear. Thus, in that scenario, being courageous requires fear; no fear → ~~courage~~. Choice D captures this necessary condition with “only if the person is afraid of the danger.”
